    Absolutely false. Cruise ships are the least energy efficient form of travel currently in major use. 250g CO2 per passenger per kilometer is horrific.

    Even super-short-haul flights like Saarbrücken-Luxembourg (80 km), Milwaukee-Chicago (108 km), Colorado Springs-Denver (117 km), Munster-Bremen (147 km) are still more efficient.

    If your flight is further than 500 km, you will produce roughly half the effective greenhouse gas emissions of the most efficient cruise ship trip, including the high altitude emission effects.

      Was once told (On FaceFuck) it was ok cause the ship was dumping all the pollution miles from anywhere. This is obviously bollocks.

        No, no, no. it’s been towed beyond the environment, it’s not in the environment.

        There is nothing out there… all there is …. is sea …and birds ….and fish …And 20,000 tons of crude oil.

        And a fire… And the part of the ship that the front fell off, but there’s nothing else out there. It’s a complete void.
