Carnival Corporation Releases Annual Sustainability Report for 2018
Carnival Corporation & plc today released its ninth annual sustainability report, detailing the key initiatives and progress made in 2018 toward its 2020 sustainability performance goals. The full 2018 report, “Sustainability from Ship to Shore,” was developed in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative standard and is available online at www.CarnivalSustainability.com.
The company achieved its 25% carbon reduction goal three years ahead of schedule in 2017 and made additional progress on that goal in 2018. As part of its ongoing strategy to reduce carbon emissions, Carnival Corporation introduced in December 2018 the world’s first cruise ship able to be powered in port and at sea by liquefied natural gas (LNG), the world’s cleanest burning fossil fuel. Looking to the future, the company continues to chart its sustainability journey, using the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals as a framework to develop a new set of goals for 2030 to constantly improve environmental management, energy efficiency, health, safety and well-being objectives.
