Infographic: Carnival Corporation Sets Out 2020 Green Agenda

Miami-based travel and leisure company Carnival Corporation has established 10 major goals for reducing its environmental footprint over the next five years presented in this infographic dubbed 2020 Sustainability Goals.

The main goals which will be implemented throughout 10 cruise lines owned and operated by Carnival include increasing water efficiency, reducing waste production, as well as reducing greenhouse gases and other emissions.

Key sustainability goals also include commitments to the health, safety and security of guests and crew members, workforce diversity and inclusion, supply chain and community involvement.

“Across our 10 brands, we host millions of guests a year and visit 725 ports of call around the world, and the health and vitality of the oceans, seas and communities through which we travel is absolutely essential to our business,” said Arnold Donald, CEO of Carnival Corporation.

“That makes protecting the environment one of our most critical areas of focus as a corporation, and it is why it is important for us to publicly communicate our sustainability goals.”

Carnival announced in November 2014 that it had met its corporate goal to reduce its rate of equivalent carbon dioxide (CO2e) emissions from shipboard operations by 20 percent – a year ahead of its initial plan.
