On Earth Day, CLIA reaffirms commitment to environmental stewardship
In honor of Earth Day (April 22), Cruise Lines International Association reminded of its commitment to protect the environment in which it operates and the ports of call it visits.

'Being environmentally conscious and proactive is not just a “need” for the industry, it’s a deep desire that is fundamental to how we do business,’ said Adam Goldstein, chairman of CLIA. 

‘From the most stringent wastewater treatment policies in the global maritime community to continuous reductions in air emissions, CLIA Members work with regulators and various industry stakeholders to deliver on their commitment to the environment,’ Goldstein commented, citing several examples covering recycling and reusing, air emissions and waste management.
