The Pacific Northwest to Alaska Green Corridor project is preparing to study the feasibility of four green methanol-powered cruise ships operating complete Alaskan itineraries by 2032, with at least one ship in service in the market by 2030. This initiative not only aims to reduce air emissions in the region, but also supports the cruise industry's larger sustainability goals, as we continue to pursue zero net emissions by 2050! #WeARECruise

Hey Cruise Industry — Let’s stop with the #greenwashing because large cruise ships will never be sustainable. Never. And the best #sustainability strategy for brands today is being truly transparent on their challenges and struggles in their journey. Less PR. More honesty. Because the truth matters these days. #letsgo 🚢 👊 ~ Rob That said, it’s great to see the progress ships are making when it comes to implementing new environmental and renewable technologies that will allow — “ships to use more renewable energy sources as they become available and making important incremental steps to employ a range of other environmental technologies and practices to advance the industry’s wider sustainability initiatives.” This is all good. But if you REALLY want your industry to have more respect when it comes to sustainability — then you need to talk more openly (and regularly) about about the serious industry problems, challenges and struggles with making sustainability fundamental to the entire large cruise ship industry. Tell your real story. #storytelling Because honest dialogue, discussions and debates is where serious longterm change and transformation is much more possible. And isn’t that what you want? No industry is perfect when it comes to their sustainability journey. So let’s pivot. Thanks for (hopefully) listening.

CLIA, the Cruise Lines International Association, has published its annual report, Global Cruise Industry Environmental Technologies and Practices, highlighting the sector’s progress in the ecological transition. The report shows that half of the ships are already electrified, while only 3% of global ports are prepared for this technology. #Cruises #CruisingJournal #CLIA #CruiseIndustry CLIA in Europe

An excellent summary of the Round Table at Seatrade Cruise Med in Malaga. We discussed what the most effective pathways are to decarbonize #Cruise vessels 🚢 at various stages of their life cycle. One of the take aways is that there are #decarbonization options for #Cruiseships at every stage of their lifecycle but it is not one size fits all. Working with the right partners is key to successfully navigate the decarbonization journey ✅

CLIA | Cruise Lines International Association report highlights cruise industry’s progress in environmental technologies CLIA released its annual Global Cruise Industry Environmental Technologies and Practices Report, showing continued progress by the sector in advancing its environmental and sustainability agenda, including investments in ships and technologies for the uptake of transitional and alternative fuels. Kelly Craighead, president and CEO of Cruise Lines International Association said that cruise lines are continuing to reduce their emissions at sea and at berth in pursuit of net zero emissions by 2050. https://lnkd.in/ekqn3tuv

I recently read an article about the draft bill for the Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Information Act. This Act, if passed, could be a game-changer for the aviation industry, providing stakeholders with reliable, detailed data on SAF. It has the potential to support sustainable growth and contribute significantly to global environmental goals. Exciting times ahead for the future of sustainable aviation! Check out the post by Rimba to see the draft bill. https://lnkd.in/gnaS2gwY

Parkland Corporation produces first sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) Air Canada is the first to fuel up with Canadian-made SAF. Onward and upward ✈️
