Cruise ship waste refers to the waste generated by passengers and crew on cruise ships. This waste includes sewage, garbage, and hazardous materials. Cruise ships have been accused of dumping this waste at sea, which can have a negative impact on the marine environment.
There are a number of reasons why cruise ships might dump waste at sea. One reason is that it is cheaper to do so than to dispose of the waste properly. Another reason is that cruise ships are often in remote areas where there are no facilities to dispose of waste. Finally, some cruise ships may simply not have the capacity to store waste on board.
