 This monstrosity is Royal Caribbean's massive cruise ship icon of the seas. It is the world's largest cruise ship at over 360 meters, or 1,000 feet long, has a whopping 40 restaurants, bars, and lounges on board, six water slides, and even a 55-foot waterfall for some reason. A Royal Caribbean spokesperson claimed that the icon is designed to operate 24% more efficiently. But the thing is that international maritime organization came out with new rules last summer that said that we needed to be operating 30% more efficiently than baseline, so they're already 6% behind. And this kind of LNG ship leaks methane out of the engine blocks, out of pipes, out of corners, and we know that those leaks are not necessarily accounted for. So not only are we behind where this ship should be, it's probably even worse than that. Cruise Lines International Association, cruise ship passengers are going to hit 36 million people this year. This means that we need to be taking the climate and environmental impacts of this industry very seriously. That's why we need you to take action. Link in bio. Follow for more.
