25DEC2018 - NEWS - Cruise Lines International Association announces global cruise industry commitment to reduce carbon emissions by 2030

The Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) has recently announced a global cruise industry commitment to reduce the rate of carbon emissions across the industry fleet by 40% by 2030. Through this, cruise has become the first maritime industry which makes a joint carbon emissions commitment to sustainability on the seas. The commitment to reduce the rate of global fleet emissions by 40% is the outcome of a collaborative process designed to build consensus among cruise line leadership. Progress toward the 40% target will be measured against a 2008 fleet baseline, and emissions rates will be calculated based on the industry fleet’s total carbon emissions, total ship berths and total distance traveled.
