business is up next for the look, and the multi $1000000000.00 crews industry. i'll have. well, well here's the top of the hour. in the meantime, of course is always d, w dot com, all the d w a good. the you cream was like a stepping points. you know, if i want you into that warranty, once i finish it, now you have a certificate from crane. you can just go back to somewhere else. currently, more people than ever on the move in search of, of best in life. so why, but i want to go back tonight. yeah. like, i don't have any reason. there's no reason that's nothing for me that yeah, i believe something that is coming very, very soon on. we know when the

story in for migrate reliable needs to migrate wherever they may be. shannon. the last thing a searing, emphasizing the award winning offer is available for every language learning gem and has never been something new to the 5 time speakers and the titanic. this is what the newest cruise ship looks like today. and it's booking at 5 of the cruise industry is the most rapid growing towards some sector

generation billions. we've been to zipcode, samelle and mexico to see what all the fuss as a base. we wanted to know what literally powers this multi $1000000000.00 industry . and this episode of transforming business, we're walk into both things used to be different cruising what of santia? yes, they were swimming pools and 1st class dining. but the liners themselves were a lot smaller. they carry to run 3 sites and passengers per trip. and overall, the industry was marked by a certain refinements and many now, here we are today. this is the largest cruise ship ever built. it's called icon of the scene. sense measure is 365 minutes for as long as can carry 10000 people at a time. just over 3 quarters of those passengers. i caught up the seas. it's reflective, false devise and the price of a booming cruise industry. this ship has just launched and was already open for

reservations in 2025 cruise passenger numbers globally are set to hit 36000000 this year. and that figure is expected to continually increase. but what's likely powering all of this, technically in the case of only kind of the seas, it's liquefied natural gas, or l n g. it's seen as a more environmentally friendly fuel. more on the laser, we asked it's owners world caribbean for an interview on that sustainability strategy, or representative from the company. never materialized within our deadline. but we did this to get hold of carnival corporation. the biggest cruise company in the world, when, if it slogans sustainable from ship initially. we recognize we have a like a need to maintain a pristine environment. so because that's what people come to see, they don't, they don't want to go see the things that have deteriorated. there was a beautiful places that we try to take them there. that's spelled back who's tides

with making kind of a safer company for the environments here at the top 5 cruise ports in the world. every year, millions of people visits quick miami in the us tops the let's we travel to the mexican island of co, samelle and the caribbean sea is part of one of the largest barrier. reese in the world. cruise is a gives you actually the opportunity to visit many different islands. um, throughout your 7 days you can hit so many different ports. the ships are amazing and there's so many things to do on them, your goal and that goes for one way. and you can spend of 1002000 and up, but you have everything we did our own internet search and find that you can actually get a weeklong cruise to caribbean for range of 630 $5.00 plus taxes and ports fees. and under the 20 banner of sustainable tourism or climate consciousness. in fact,

one study says half of what americans believe priest holidays are environmentally friendly. on the screen by just one probably by the top 3 cruise carnival. what caribbean region norwegian is showing as bio fuel mix plants and continues to use marine gas or oil. and the longer term if these green metals as a promising source of power kind of fill in word caribbean, continue to use traditional views. and they both chose the currencies of l. m. g is the best fuel available today for us to use from greenhouse gas perspective. and we've pioneered that within the industry. has 9 engines ships with 2 more on order . and when the roll on stream or on shore, rather the guess capacity of those 11 ships we represent 20 percent of its lease. that's a significant investment in a fossil fuel. the company's 1st l. n. g capable vessel is reported to have costs

$950000000.00 to bills. and i guess being the world's biggest crews company kind of a has the money to bring. basically the cruise industry is expected to generate revenue to the june of just over 30000000000 dollars last year in 2027. the indicator is that this figure will jump to almost $36000000000.00. and the regents cruise ships don't cost also benefits. a study from the crews industry bodies sunset. passengers alone spend buys $100.00 at visiting cruise ports in coast amount. local businesses thing, the praise of the crew sector in chorus. the, undoubtedly the crews and us 3 is the one that rings the most benefit to the island . what is the thing we also have national tourist, but what gives us the most impact is the international crew that will say that the community, the intake level and the reason why occurs tourism to cause them al is 90 percent of the reason we have jobs on the island since the last that but in the soul plus

hecky because a lot of bit lot of it goes into a particular case of calls him as we're approaching $400000000.00 in economic benefits for a population that does not reach 200000 inhabitants. nor the guy logo in for me, let me sample box or they hadn't cos, according to one study cruising is more than double the carbon emissions are flying and staying in a 4 star hotel various cities and creating one of your busiest ports. barcelona has moved to restrict cruise ships because of their emissions. norway has also a name so that from 2026 vessels with 0 emissions will be aligned to visit us. it's fjords. it follows research that canes cruise liners in europe and miss as many toxic air pollutants as 1000000000 cars. after van expands and large crews liners from anchoring, and it's a store excise, it's reports at the air place and so like 80 percent. but hold on something to move to using liquefied natural gas, sol, all of this, no carbon their rice,

the easiest way to comply with the regulations on soffer, nitrogen oxides and carbon dioxide intensity. all of the same time. you use liquefied natural gas because it contains almost no sulfur and it, he makes about 25 percent less carbon dioxide emissions spend conventional goals, frank comb or is not convinced by liquefied natural gas being used in the shipping sector. u. c, l a n t is made up of methane, a gas that doesn't stay in the atmosphere as long as carbon dioxide, but it's 80 times more. one thing for our promise in the short time. and what's interesting about maritime companies using l n. g is days, many of them are choosing liquefied natural gas as their fuel. and the engines that cruise ships use tend to be those that email the most about unburned methane to the

atmosphere. and we call that methane slip. this and for red camera shows the ship burning l n g. because you see illustrate the methane that's escaping the methane slip, the more methane, the bigger the kind. the cruise ship industry emits about $30000000.00 tons of greenhouse gases each year. and that's the same as $75.00 natural gas powered power plants. what do you mean each year? for environmental us here in coast amount, who oppose cruise ships? they see a call on the sector as critical. philadelphia billing there, but it's only 30 for us to process. we're diver appears with a quantity of results is under his feet in north we went up to look at them when he says to say, look at the group that's got a large number, fish that would that are in those tight. yeah. the yeah. and is this the 1st is wrong with what so kosanota tourism mean you're just

a minute please. and now we don't have time. she gets added to the question of what's hiring this multi $1000000000.00 industry. well, it's carry demands. just look at the size of like kind of the seas. yes it's run on l n g. a fossil fuel made up of methane, one of the drivers of global warming. but whatever fuse that are being used, it's periods are in flux. as the industry grapples with a warming, thomas, and tries to color in between the lines for the more for a mid of the lines, however, those of our environments we might already be over the edge. we don't want any more increases and to see that the community opposes permission. would you take a cruise let us know in the comments below, and if he likes this episode, please check out the transforming business playlist for videos on topics just like this one. the
