I apologize for being that guy who points out little details that most people do not care about, but I just can't let it go. The ship featured in the thumbnail is more of a ferry than a cruise ship (but it is a very nice ferry). Also, the description mentions that there are more ocean liners docked in Europe than before the pandemic, but they are cruise ships and not liners. The only true ocean liner currently sailing is the Queen Mary 2. Edit: Now it is definitely a photo of a cruise ship and not a ferry anymore!

In the port of San Juan, Puerto Rico, a regular Caribbean cruise ship port, I visited some friends, who showed me everything in their house, covered in a fine, black, powder... the exhaust of the cruise ships' smokestacks. Human lungs cannot process this matter, and people become seriously ill. But the cruise ship industry's economic power and ability to corrupt officials, reigns supreme, and health hazards, passenger safety, and bad weather take a backseat to the cruise lines' profits. If anyone gifted me a cruise, I would simply refuse it, because I know what is really behind the glamour.

@@retrospectivelyspectacular2331 ⁠I can explain the hydrogen aspect. You need energy to break the hydrogen bond to make hydrogen fuel for a fuel cell. You’d actually lose joules of energy from energy loss during conversion just creating hydrogen. Cat chasing its own tail unfortunately in this scenario. (Hydrogen is practically a battery/storage without a free source of it) Desalination I’m not sure. Perhaps logistically at this time maybe it’s cheaper to just use a local or grid source rather than having a massive desalination plant. Would need maintenance, use fuel and the crew and space for it. Have to be a massive system in addition to the already existing water tanks.

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.

I've been on two of the largest cruise ships in Europe (Iona and Virtuosa). Whilst both have incredibly good stabilisation technology and wonderful food and facilities, if there is even a moderate wind blowing at right angles to the side of the ship, they are both so tall that they are difficult to keep on course. This has the most impact in the busy waterway of the English Channel and has resulted in the ships having to stay in port for safety reasons. Also, to reiterate the point made in the programme, evacuating 6500 people in rough seas with failed engines near to the coast is near impossible. Still wouldn't stop me getting on board, however, as many more deaths occur at sea in smaller ships with a lower redundancy factor so I'm happy to assume the risk.

You'd need batteries to store all of that solar energy. It's not just solar, otherwise at night or when its cloudy.... Also current commercial solar panels are only 20 ish percent efficient, so you'd need a heck of a lot of solar panels for a cruise ship. There is probably not enough surface area on a large cruise ship to power it with solar panels. The power could be generated on land from a solar farm and then a giant battery on the ship could be charged when in port. I think this is the most reasonable solutiuon with current technology.

As to addressing the emission issues, there is no sound reason not to use nuclear-based propulsion systems since their use is widespread in ships of similar tonnage that have similar reliability requirements. Even the cost increase is marginal relative to the cost of building and fitting out a large cruise ship costing $1-2 billion dollars.

All ports should ban cruise ships from entering. There is no need to get on a huge floating hotel, to party on your way to a destination. You become a trapped, with at least a thousand other people on board a floating petri dish.

@@GordonHouston-Smith I've worked as an independent inspector for many years and know what I'm talking about, some trips you mention by train, plane and car are unfortunately necessary but going on a pleasure cruise locked in an iron box with thousands of others is not. That is the logic and the list can be made long with those who have experienced it, for example the Estonia disaster in 1994 here in Sweden where I knew several of the 852 who died.

@@0e32 Good point, though I would think most journeys we make are not really necessary. Cruises are not my thing, I have only been on two, the first for the experience and the second because it was a girlfriends birthday. (We were not locked in an iron box:-)) I got bored quickly and was suprised to find even the allure of the bars faded rapidly. I'm not greatly found of people and missed my dogs. My sympathies about your friends. I have experienced two emergency landings in aircraft, one rather serious; and three very serious car accidents. Had my share of mishaps.

Not to mention that Marseille is 2nd largest city in France after Paris with a terrible traffic problem. It is really not because of large cruise ships. With the size of land/house in this location, can you imagine the value of this house? They can move anywhere esle they wish if this is such a problem to them - Cassis, Antibes to just give an example.

Because they mandated the shot, I will never, ever, ever give them another penny. And I know I'm far from alone. To that add the fear-susceptible that were already afraid of human close contact but the scram demm yick amplified those fears such that they now fearfully won't cruise or fly. (Those were already hypochondriacs; yet SOME think the shot was a magic cure, and those ones will "continue to shop".)
