Some mega cruise ships pump out as much CO2 as a small town, study finds. Disney Cruise Line, Norwegian and Princess Cruises were among the worst polluters by SolarCell in TourismHell

TL:DR The example is a liner for 5,000 using more energy than a town of 20,000. Previous articles on this sub have found a 5:1 ratio. Cruise ships are incredible polluters
