Who would guess that floating 10,000 people on the ocean would be a biohazard?
You couldn't pay me to go on a floating town.
Trapped on a ship with ten thousand people? Nope.
All you can eat buffet right above the poop deck.
But you’re okay with buying slave labor made goods that are shipped around the world just because you can get them cheap.
Compare the number of cruise ships to cargo ships. Just a drop in the bucket.
Yea this giant hunk of metal is surely environmentally friendly
Us citizen apparently
A ship 10 times larger than the titanic has more emissions than a single 747? WOW who would have guessed 😂😂😂😂😂
in case of emergency (fire) it is extremely difficult to quickly evacuate all those people
It don't look safe… Like it could crack and break , something to do with the spacing of waves and nothing under the belly sometimes… ??? 😮
POLLUTION
A floating Petri dish and absolutely obscene.
And it may will become the largest danger cruise ship ，if any deadly accidents happened。
DW complaining. DW management “I need to ride that boat with my family, soon!….. coool!!”
Environmental disaster on sea and incubator of illness on holiday.
Monstrosity
Royal Caribbean Cruises
Hydrogen fuel cell/nuclear powered engine for cruise ship instead maybe ?
I dont think you understand what are talking about!
Its not even close, compared to some factory emissions. Stop talking nonsense.
You want change in this field?! Go to China, talk to them about theyr factories!!!
And leave god damn tourists alone. Theyr probably paying your bill somehow…
Wait how does anyone think this is environmentally friendly ?
Who cares
Floating sewage
We can always go nuclear
10000 people? Sounds like a nightmare
Control people comments, delete comments, cover up the leader's own mistakes! Use the highest authority to grant oneself the right to exemption! Judicial immunity! Are you a constitution or a royal law or Chinese dictator rules ?
War recoil
