11 How to get the message across?

12 Do you know that Cruise ships recycle more than tons of paper, plastic, aluminium and glass every year

13 Do you know that The newest ships emit about 20 % less carbon dioxide per person per day that ships built only a few years ago

14 Do you know that Cruise ships recycle 60 % more waste per person than the average person recycles on shore each day

15 The cruise lines do all of this not because it is the right thing to do It makes just good business sense

16 How to get this message across? Activate your network Use SoMe Arrange visits on cruise ships Media coverage Other initiatives

17 And by the way Unrecyclable waste on cruise ships can be as little as 1,5 pounds per person per day On land in the US - the average unrecyclable waste is 4-5 pounds per person per day
