The Cruise Ship Industry: A floating grave? | The Future of the Cruise Industry | ENDEVR Documentary

I knew when these behemoth monstrosities first started appearing that that would create huge problems. I hate them and only cruise on the older, smaller ships now.

We just sailed through the Adriatic and the Aegean sea last week, we have been on the MSC Sinfonia cruise ship.
The room, service, staff and everything were brilliant but I just couldn't relax, specially during the last stormy night…At least I know it now, boats are not for me. Respect to all the staff who can manage to stay on deck for months and months…

So this is a documentary purely on scientific stances based on numbers. It is sad that is leaves out the ethical concept. Cruise ships are mostly used by the rich to enjoy an unfair holiday on the expense of the rest of the world. Regardless of the marine disaster what would've occurred had the Viking Cruise ship collided with the Bergen coast, it would've been completely unneccesary if all were just for the enjoyment of some rich people gambling with the fate of the world.

Absolutely very one sided report. This whole Zero emissions fad is a complete lie. No matter what the energy to power these ships must be produced somewhere.

7 thousand boat orrs,or sails that may work.

Much of the travel r tourist industry is polluting.

Cruise ships like a floating turd in the ocean toilet bowl

Go nuclear. The only reason people don't like nuclear power is sheer ignorance.

Rightly or wrongly economics trumps pollution. The residents of port cities benefit enormously from tourism to include,employment, shops, restaurants, hotels, tour groups, and services provided to tour groups. So if you wanted the cleaner air and you were passionate about it, just ban the cruise ships. Or go even further and ban the freighter traffic, and all the small pleasure boats that spew pollution with their outboard and inboard engines and your fishing vessels. I don't cruise and never will as it doesn't appeal to me but don't get high and mighty about cruise ship pollution. You have the power to ban them, go ahead and do it but don't complain if you do not.

The major problem in my opinion is the absurd size that these ships are being built. I don't understand the attraction of paying to spend a vacation in an overcrowded environment that looks like a shopping center.

These clumsy shapes are not for the open seas with unexpected stormy conditions etc. They TOWER unreasonably far too much in an unbalanced manner when the older liners which sat lower and more gracefully must have been designed like that to enable efficient management of movement through oceanic waters in all sorts of weathers. Pure greed !

Advert for a cruise ship came on while watching. Hilarious, especially after the disaster off Norway.😂

Old timers need to get with the time. Cruise pollution is not even an issue. They complain about everything.

Great report. The pollution from those ships terrible. When it comes to money, everything else is secondary.

I have never been on a cruise. They honestly scare me to death ! The weirdness of laws when bad things happen. They scare me even more than flying !
