Is there information which indicates vessel-specific information for cruise ships (in respect to environmental technologies installed to ensure an environmentally friendly guilt free cruise vacation for the cruise consumer)? For example, I'm seeking information which can tell me which fuel a ship purchases (high grade vs. cheap bunker oil), what type of Marine Sanitation Device is installed (old inadequate holding tank type or new wastewater treatment technology), what a ship's effluent sampling record is, does it treat or simply dump overboard its greywater, what is done with its hazardous waste, does it use percs in its dry cleaning, is there adequate training and staffing to run a clean ship, etc. Some sites like cruisejunkie.com list ship-specific incidents, disease outbreaks and felony fines. But it has little on individual vessel environmental performance auditing. Perhaps LLoyd's , a ship insurer or the Coast Guard has such a public site for meaningful third-party, verifiable corporate environmental reporting? |

We were on a cruise in May 2002 aboard the Ocean Princess and at each turn-around port there was a greywater/blackwater tug that received the ships goodies(sic). |

Considering the fuel used...

When you have a time table, 2000 to 5000 passengers, I personally would go cheap on fuel... Would you? Besides there should be minimal road-users taxes, right? hehe |
