that's a very distinct marketing strategy, "marine-environmental responsibility."

@ThePursuitWOD 13 днів тому

Yeah, the company hasn’t actually done anything to reduce the amount of greenhouse gas emissions, waste, or noise pollution from ships. They should stop being destructive to the entire oceans before trying to reconstruct a tiny part of it.

It's BS

@@Jesse-ey5xd Yes BS to those ignorant. Billions of dollars they invested for a cruise ship, and that billions of dollars of investment must make a long term business and revenue for paying back the investors, so they need "business sustainability" by investing too for the environments where their business thrive, Cruse line and marketiing in the hospitality- and tourism college subjects were my forte.

Cruise ships are not considered tourism ... unless one sees the 24-hour buffets and bars as a "destination". Eatin' & Sittin' tour.

At least there’s one company taking steps to make a difference long term environmentally.

This is a fantastic port of call! Been there 3-times since it opened. My next cruise with MSC departs in 57-days; can't wait!

I love cruising with MSC. Headed to Canada and New England aboard the MSC Meraviglia in just one week!

Okay, but can they turn it into spooky island from Scooby Doo?

Can someone imagine this: 1 meeting room size of lionsworld is only $95/mth, it's big. If imagine a cruiseship like common sense about life, if spending together on it as investor to become "only thousands each", we biz as passive earning everytime customers come back to get the total amount or after paid(about "if terrorism in sea")? Business in the cruise ships - restaurants(additional extras apart from set-choice in the trip to other country)? If as places to trip, then people land, then someone take the available room, can become continuous earning like nice too. Must communicate with bank at other countries? Will cruise ship have like that? 20 rooms 30 rooms? Energy? Even if "only think of money and not friendship(but no war and theft)", like have no choice in life. They dismantle cruise ships wasting it away, maybe we can get cheaper? What area of sea maybe won't have war to be that path?

Hmmm this looks like a paid add

@Xenon-4300 12 днів тому

They are using the island to milk it for profit and the good PR doesn't hurt either. No port fees, they can charge guests for activities, excursions, food, drink, and guests can't leave once they are there. Like a little theme park, following the blueprint of Royal Caribbean's private island Cocoa Cay. Does anyone really believe a giant cruise corporation is doing this out of their sincere care for the environment?

@cody-mclain 14 днів тому

Terrible journalism here. She asks the guy why they are rehabilitating the island, the guy gives a BS answer because he wants to keep his job, and the journalist doesn’t even hint that this is a business decision. Every cruise ship needs an island as a stopover destination, so this is nothing more than a very expensive business decision because the board didn’t have an option that was significantly cheaper, and this allows them to do it under the guise of ‘protecting the planet’

Making the ships smaller can make em more available for wind power. Using glass bamboo or aluminum for cups can reduce waste. Have a waste water treatment thing on bord to treat the poop water.
