I created this info-graphic in hopes of continuing to raise awareness of the impact that cruise ships are having in the Caribbean Sea and the islands located there in. My hopes are that if anyone reads this info graphic they will answer at least one of the calls to action that I have listed at the bottom. While it may seem like a small step at this point, the consequence of fulfilling any one of these call to action has the potential to affect the situation in the Caribbean in a big way. If each person that read this and visited the Caribbean, intentionally spending $20 more dollars at a local business in port, it would increase the quality of life for multiple locals and their families. Maybe another person doesn't have plans to visit the islands but wants to help raise awareness about this issue and becomes an advocate for stricter environmental laws and policies when it comes to local government's involvement with cruise line companies. Every effort has the potential to better the situation of the people in Caribbean and preserve the unique, breathe-taking nature that is found there.

AuthorAs a Parks, Recreation, and Tourism student I have decided to create a blog that focuses on the effect that the cruise line industry has on one of its most popular destinations, The Caribbean. I will use this blog to explore both the good and bad that comes from this massive industry. ArchivesCategories |
