Parent company @carnival and P&O Cruises both got an ‘F’ for sewage treatment, air pollution reduction, water quality, and compliance and transparency (Friends of the Earth Cruise Ship Report Card).
We know that most cruise ships still burn the dirtiest, cheapest fuel available, Heavy Fuel Oil, that directly risks the health of passengers, crew, port communities and our wildlife through exposure to air pollution
We know that the cruise industry has a long history of breaking environmental laws without accountability. In 2017 Carnival was was fined $40 million for “felony charges stemming from deliberate dumping of oil-contaminated waste from one of its vessels intentional acts to cover it up”
