WITH Joel Katz, MD, CLIA Australasia – Responsible Environmental Practices: Making a true commitment to preserve and protect the
environment is not only
fundamental to the success of the
cruise industry, it’s also the right
thing to do.
Cruise ships represent less than 1%
of the global shipping fleet, however
are leading the way when it comes
to sustainability investment.
The cruise industry takes
sustainable tourism seriously by
constantly evaluating ways to
protect our planet’s oceans and
communities and leads the way
in recycling, new technology and
alternative fuels.
Key is developing and refining
responsible environmental practices
and innovative technologies that
lead the world’s shipping sector in
reducing emissions and waste.
The global cruise industry has
invested billions in new technologies
and cleaner fuels to reduce ships’
emissions; and in the design and
development of lower emissions and
higher energy efficiency cruise ships.
Cruise lines strive to ensure that
each new generation of ships is more
eco-friendly than the previous one
and our members are committed to
fitting existing ships with the latest
technology as part of continued
sustainability improvements across
the industry.
