I do. I physically can’t eat a lot at one time and I can never tell how much or how little I’ll be able to eat. So even though I go for small portions, sometimes I still end up throwing away food.
I see, they dont dump their plastic in the ocean. Instead they collect and compact it, bring it to Miami, so it can get exported to Malaysia and get dumped in the ocean there 👌🏼
Me too. I live in a not-so good neighborhood and I am grateful for every meal I have. I know that only a few blocks away, someone might not have a meal.
It’s craaaaaazy that they would ever consider dumping trash right into the ocean. The fine shouldn’t be in cash. They have plenty of money. It should be a ban of your business. That would be the ultimate deterrent.
Conditions looks MUCH better then I’d have ever imagined on the very bottom floor of a massive ship like this. I also didn’t know about the water bottle thing, a clever solution to a massive task.
Honestly who gives a crap that cruise ships dumped stuff for years when countries over in Asia are dumping trash and other stuff straight into the water. literally videos of dump trucks pulling up to rivers and dumping trash straight in
I see a huge problem with expressing penalties for businesses only in monetary fines. Their analysts can trim this into a simple cost benefit calculation. "Dumping trash into the ocean has a x% chance of being detected and would roughly cost us x amount of $. Whereas correct recycling would cost y times as much. So we just dump it in the ocean." No. Penalties must be expressed in actual bans or limitations of operation in an area and/or time frame. This way businesses would have a real incentive to act right.
Capitalism can be bad left unchecked. Setting proper regulations, limitations, and discipline for the individuals & groups who are overly substantially financed & mistake their finances as the ability to negatively impact this world. Long story short: dont let companies and spoiled brats (millionaires, billionaires) do what they want recklessy.
An idea I had a while ago that imo needs a lot of refinement to be viable but the main idea is that while you still have fines it’s based on the company’s profits, so each offense has a percent on it , each offense adds the percent to the total percent which is fined to the company based on their total profits( make sure no loopholes like there are in tax law) and the total percent goes down over time or/and with good behavior, so if they do a lot of offenses in a short time then the total percent will go up and get kind of high quickly and because it’s doing fines multiple times it’s going to cut into their profit margins a lot and because it’s based on their profits, it should scale to small and large businesses and no raising prices can block it, of course in real law it would have to be tweaked and changed to make sure it has the desired effect and no loopholes but I think the main idea of fines being tied to profits is a good idea
They could wait until they reach shore and dispose of it. Incinerate it too. I don't know, anything but do this. These ships should be banned. So sad the government doesn't care enough.

Royal Carribean is originally a Norwegian cruise liner. But I believe they where bought by americans. Most top officers on the ships are Norwegian.

A PR stunt doesn't mean that they're actually doing anything to change - just that they're making it LOOK like there's change so that people feel more comfortable consuming it and don't look more than surface-level deep. The exact thought "so what if it's a PR stunt - it's still a win" is exactly the mentality they're preying on so they don't actually have to progress or fix the things they're doing wrong.
Actually Maritime laws are strict af...all but the smallest of ships must follow certain garbage disposal laws or there could be serious consequences. Even big companies would think twice before neglecting them. Plus these ships go through several quality checks at regular intervals. So it doesn't matter whether they like it or not they have to follow the rules.

I was on a Carnival cruise, the Fascination with a balcony suite with my wife of 17 days. We were on our private deck enjoying the moonlight over the horizon and then we hear glass on a steel floor look down over the side of the ship and a little behind us, and there we saw garbage being dumped on the floor and then swept into the ocean by two wide push brooms. We saw wine bottles, plastic containers from the kitchen. When we told the Captain next evening, he said that it never happened. He said the Glass is all ground up to a powder and released out the bottom of the ship. Our eyes DON'T AND DIDN'T LIE TO US.
I took one cruise, and was amazed at how hard those folks worked, and at multiple jobs. The wine steward who remembered everyone at our table each evening was out scraping and painting in the mornings. These folks sacrifice by living away from their families to provide for them, and Im sure what money they make per hour worked is shamefully low compared to what they generate the cruise company.
On my one and only cruise I ever took, I was shocked at how much food waste I saw! I literally saw scores of people fill up a ginormous plate, take one bite, then walk away!
Royal Caribbean cruise ship offer free meal at restaurant. The problem is they offer you a full course free meal and sometimes people just can't finish all of that.
When I was a kid, there was a local butcher, he didn't have a refrigerator, so whenever he has left overs he would just put it in a bag and give the meat to anyone who passes by, he managed to get a ref, he noticed that sometimes the meat ends up rotting when no one buys the meat, he still kept giving the people free meat, I was like 7 or 8 years old, I'm now 23, he never had waste, in the 90's people were kinder compared to now, they just want money, even if there are leftovers, they'd still rather throw it away than give it to someone else because of payment, we all loved our butcher, he was kind, generous, and quite loveable. Hope he's doing well.
I used to have to board a Norwegian cruise ship every Saturday for my company to service their gift shop (when they docked). The gift shop used to give me their recyclables every week that the workers went through, which was only around a dollar at most. After a couple months, the checkpoint to board/disembark told me I couldn't take it off the ship. I couldn't believe it, as I knew they would just throw it away.
I love this Filipino guy, he makes everyone happy ... alright before u all start heatin up for the wrong reason. I was just joking. Plus I’m Filipino too plus HOW THE HELL DID I GET LIKES 😂😂😂
That guy is probably super serious about his job and cracks his whip often. A minute late? Leaving a minute early? That's grounds for termination. After all, there are thousands of other Filipinos eager to take your job at less pay. You can't get a job that pays like this back in the Philippines.
Me: *sees a brown asian dude* Alex: *speaks with a very familiar accent* My inner filipino: *Yep he's Filipino* Edit: Woah so many likes thanks guys lol
If you have space to store all those containers when they are full and before they are crushed then you have plenty of space to store the crushed compacted plastic cardboard metal and glass. It’s pretty simple unless your ignorant.
The reason why the disease is called _coronavirus_ is because under an electron microscope, the virus looks like a crown _('corona' being the Latin word for crown)_ with pointy ridges when viewed from above (those "pointy ends" are the peplomers, which binds to the host cells' receptors to trick them into taking in the virus before infection, during a process called 'receptor-induced endocytosis') The reason why the sales of Corona Beer is down is because most people are staying home to avoid the potential viral spread, not because they confused the name of the beer with the virus
But dont they contain so much salt? Except salad idk if regular food can be used as compost. I have zero organic waste policy on my house as i make compost from vegetable and fruit leftovers (saves money for compost) But I cant use for example leaf plate (traditional food) on the local delicacies as i know it contain salt.

I am from Bohri community n it is compulsory for us to finding all food wat we tk in our plate.not a single rice or anythng is wasted.very proud of our community.
Royal Caribbean is the only cruise line that I trust, they are by far the most transparent and they never seem to have any major issues, if any. I have enjoyed every cruise that I've taken with them from a short cruise on Majesty of the Seas to my most recent on Quantum of the seas. They are the only cruise line that I see on documentaries and informative shows like this
@@lem1681 OP is implying that they are basically bribing organizations so they can dump shit on the ocean, and knowing cruise lines they most probably are doing so on a daily, even more so given they like to avoid paying proper taxing by being stationed on countries like Panama
I have said it in the past, it is the shipping industry that pollutes the oceans. I also think that some of the recycling sent abroad is also dumped at sea.
All I'm thinking about is how many beaches on Long Island, Bahamas (in the Caribbean) that are polluted from cruise ship waste. No matter how many times we clean the beaches, they are polluted again from cruise ships dumping their trash into the ocean and it being washed up onto our beaches a few months later. I'm truly hoping that this system will be incorporated to other Caribbean cruise ship lines, so we can have trash free beaches again one day.
It is great effort from plate wash guys and incinerator guys... In my 17 years of sea life in cruise liner.. I have great respect for those guys.... If I say more than captain...
I used to work at a facility in the UK that occasionally dealt with bagged incinerator ash from cruise ships that docked at Southampton. It was strange the stuff we'd find in them. Everything from part burn shoes and carpet, oyster shells, one colleague said he found jewelry once. We treated the ash with waste industrial acid to make both safe and then sent it out to landfill.
That Waste managent is a mostly standard for cruise ship since a long time. I worked for the company which delievered this system on Board and i can say we delivered Systems like this for more than 20years always in accordance their rules of the time.
Unfortunately not. And the worst part is these cruise lines often save a lot more than $40 million when they dump for years, so it's not even much of an incentive not to. Carnival's different lines have been caught many times and continued to do it for many years until a judge tried to ban them from docking in the States.
You're right. There should be no repercussions for their shitty polluting actions. The thing is the government is going to be the one stuck with the clean up eventually. Are private companies going to scoop trash out of the ocean? NO! There's no profit to be had. The idea is to take the profit they made from the company that abused the environment and give it to the government where anyone can access how the money is spent through a freedom of information act. The idea of democracy is the people have a say and have a way to fight back against private profit vampires. That is until cruise ship lobbyists get involved in, say, the EPA and get to write their own laws.
I've been blessed to be on more than my share of cruising and have always thanked everyone that presented me food and drink.I truly appreciated and respected their efforts and hard work to make me happy and comfortable.
I was on vacation to Lanzarote once. We booked a boattrip to the south, where the boat was just laying in the water while the people could go snorkling, swimming etc. There was also a buffet available. The buffet was made out of chickenlegs, fries and greens. When you were done eating, people could scoop the leftovers in a trashcan, but we were not allowed to throw those chicken bones away. The staff threw those chicken bones in the sea, because a lot of fish were swimming there. Every time they did that tour, they would stop at the same place. This way they were hoping that the fish would stay in the same place as well. I think this is a great idea. There were thousands of fish in that ocean and the water was so incredibly clear. I think this is really smart.
I'm a navy vet. When you first get to a ship they make you work serving the ship in the gally, mess decks and trash room. We threw trash overboard all the time.
It's unfortunate that the common perception of recycling is that everything a consumer places in a blue top recycling bin get's a brand new life somewhere else. Fact is that "recycling" has become nothing more than an exercise in sorting and ultimately either get's sold to other countries for landfill or gets burned for energy.
I was on this boat, and it was phenomenal. It's just an amazing boat. The food, service, rooms, and the boat itself were all superior. It's worth every penny.
“For health and safety reasons, no cruise ship is allowed to have water fountains” Hold up. The ship I was on a few weeks ago (rhapsody of the seas, Royal Caribbean) had two water fountains on deck 10. How is that allowed then?
@@nathandrake711 yeah yeah, I know. To be fair, at the time, there was only like 2,000 - 3,000 cases, and I wasn't about to cancel over some virus halfway around the world, as looking forward to the cruise had basically been the only thing keeping me mentally stable for the proceeding year or so.

A PR stunt doesn't mean that they're actually doing anything to change - just that they're making it LOOK like there's change so that people feel more comfortable consuming it and don't look more than surface-level deep.
The exact thought "so what if it's a PR stunt - it's still a win" is exactly the mentality they're preying on so they don't actually have to progress or fix the things they're doing wrong.
Actually Maritime laws are strict af...all but the smallest of ships must follow certain garbage disposal laws or there could be serious consequences. Even big companies would think twice before neglecting them. Plus these ships go through several quality checks at regular intervals. So it doesn't matter whether they like it or not they have to follow the rules.

What’s so funny u middle aged mom
I was on a Carnival cruise, the Fascination with a balcony suite with my wife of 17 days. We were on our private deck enjoying the moonlight over the horizon and then we hear glass on a steel floor look down over the side of the ship and a little behind us, and there we saw garbage being dumped on the floor and then swept into the ocean by two wide push brooms. We saw wine bottles, plastic containers from the kitchen. When we told the Captain next evening, he said that it never happened. He said the Glass is all ground up to a powder and released out the bottom of the ship. Our eyes DON'T AND DIDN'T LIE TO US.
Idk man, he is the Captain...
I took one cruise, and was amazed at how hard those folks worked, and at multiple jobs. The wine steward who remembered everyone at our table each evening was out scraping and painting in the mornings. These folks sacrifice by living away from their families to provide for them, and Im sure what money they make per hour worked is shamefully low compared to what they generate the cruise company.

When I was a kid, there was a local butcher, he didn't have a refrigerator, so whenever he has left overs he would just put it in a bag and give the meat to anyone who passes by, he managed to get a ref, he noticed that sometimes the meat ends up rotting when no one buys the meat, he still kept giving the people free meat, I was like 7 or 8 years old, I'm now 23, he never had waste, in the 90's people were kinder compared to now, they just want money, even if there are leftovers, they'd still rather throw it away than give it to someone else because of payment, we all loved our butcher, he was kind, generous, and quite loveable.

I used to have to board a Norwegian cruise ship every Saturday for my company to service their gift shop (when they docked).

0:07 that Corona Beer tho
Idiots: Here's the proof Corona Beer cause coronavirus
The reason why the disease is called _coronavirus_ is because under an electron microscope, the virus looks like a crown _('corona' being the Latin word for crown)_ with pointy ridges when viewed from above (those "pointy ends" are the peplomers, which binds to the host cells' receptors to trick them into taking in the virus before infection, during a process called 'receptor-induced endocytosis')
The reason why the sales of Corona Beer is down is because most people are staying home to avoid the potential viral spread, not because they confused the name of the beer with the virus

Where I live, waste food is collected by a waste collection lorry from my home and used to make compost that is used on farmers fields.
But dont they contain so much salt? Except salad idk if regular food can be used as compost.

You are correct, not everything is 100% reusable. That is why different plastics are labeled, for example.

And those few dollars are going to bite them back as millions. They won"t take that stupid risk

No matter how many times we clean the beaches, they are polluted again from cruise ships dumping their trash into the ocean and it being washed up onto our beaches a few months later.
I'm truly hoping that this system will be incorporated to other Caribbean cruise ship lines, so we can have trash free beaches again one day.

Do all these multi-million dollar fines go towards ocean clean-up🤔? If not...whats the dang point
Unfortunately not. And the worst part is these cruise lines often save a lot more than $40 million when they dump for years, so it's not even much of an incentive not to. Carnival's different lines have been caught many times and continued to do it for many years until a judge tried to ban them from docking in the States.
You're right. There should be no repercussions for their shitty polluting actions. The thing is the government is going to be the one stuck with the clean up eventually. Are private companies going to scoop trash out of the ocean? NO! There's no profit to be had. The idea is to take the profit they made from the company that abused the environment and give it to the government where anyone can access how the money is spent through a freedom of information act. The idea of democracy is the people have a say and have a way to fight back against private profit vampires. That is until cruise ship lobbyists get involved in, say, the EPA and get to write their own laws.
We all know where the money goes to
A $40 million fine is a slap on the wrist. They dump way more than 40 million pounds of waste every year.
Same place all those speeding fines go probably

Every time I hear or see a bailer it reminds me of Michael Scott.
I was on vacation to Lanzarote once. We booked a boattrip to the south, where the boat was just laying in the water while the people could go snorkling, swimming etc. There was also a buffet available. The buffet was made out of chickenlegs, fries and greens. When you were done eating, people could scoop the leftovers in a trashcan, but we were not allowed to throw those chicken bones away. The staff threw those chicken bones in the sea, because a lot of fish were swimming there. Every time they did that tour, they would stop at the same place. This way they were hoping that the fish would stay in the same place as well.
I think this is a great idea. There were thousands of fish in that ocean and the water was so incredibly clear. I think this is really smart.
*jaws theme starts playing*

It's unfortunate that the common perception of recycling is that everything a consumer places in a blue top recycling bin get's a brand new life somewhere else.
