I hope so, EmbraceUnity. According to http://www.adventuresmithexplorations.com/pressrelease_06.08.30.php "The travel and tourism industry is catching on quickly about how to neutralize its own global warming related impacts from greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. One industry, however, has remained relatively silent, so much so that Boulder, CO based non-profit Sustainable Travel International (STI) recently challenged it to answer the question, "Where does the cruise ship industry stand on the issue of global climate change?""
