An American yacht company was fined $ 20 million for daring to discharge waste water into the sea illegally and also sought to hide criminal acts. Previously, this company also made mistakes in another incident and was in the monitoring area since 2016. Yet still ... what is the problem.
One of the most pressing issues today is to protect the environment. Many places in the world have launched a campaign to save the planet with the most practical actions. While people start becoming more aware of the issue of earth's survival and join hands to live green. Then a yacht company goes against the majority with its unconscious actions, causing public opinion during the past time.
In this story, Carnival is the world's largest yacht group founded by billionaire Ted Arison, based in Miami, USA. Carnival Corp owns 10 yacht brands with 105 units worldwide and is the parent company of Princess Cruises - the group's largest fleet. As a luxury yacht, Princess Cruises should be at the forefront of environmental protection to beautify their image in the eyes of tourists.

Responding to the media, the representative of Carnival company affirmed: "We are committed to protecting the living, working and traveling environment of everyone. Our aspiration is to make the passing place better when just arrived ". Photo: Business Insider
Contrary to their words, according to the New York Times, the yachts of Princess Cruises of Carnival are accused of discharging waste including food and plastic into the Bahamas. Not only that, the yacht company tried to cover up its sinful actions by secretly "abolishing" the mistakes before the government entered.

Ship pollution is a serious threat to marine ecosystems. Noise from ships is enough to kill many creatures in the ocean. That is not to mention the problem of plastic and garbage discharged to the wrong standards. Photo: Princess Cruises
From the environmental inspector's report, Carnival violated environmental laws in the first year of probation. More than 800 violations were discovered from April 2017 to April 2018. Photo: Business Insider
Consequently, after being investigated and discovered, the US cruise line was fined $ 20 million for acts of dumping plastic waste into the sea, falsifying papers and interfering with the court's ship supervision.
Carnival Corp has 7 days to pay a fine of 20 million USD, if overdue will pay an additional 1 million USD per day. Besides, with continuous invasion of serious marine environment for 3 years. The company also faces a number of new probation requests. It is necessary to reduce the number of disposable plastic utensils and set up waste management teams on board under the supervision of environmental inspectors. And Carnival Corp has agreed to this penalty.

Previously they were also fined after another incident and severely criticized by public opinion because the yacht had left, not saving the fishermen who were injured on a fishing boat that was washed up in Thai Binh sea.

Beautiful is beautiful but doing tourism without consciously preserving and protecting the environment will soon be removed by tourists.
The federal judge oversees the incident, Patricia Seitz expressed her anger at the consecutive violations of Carnival. It even threatened to ban the company's boats from docking in the US.
This is not the first time Princess Cruises violates environmental regulations. In 2016, US cruiser Princess Cruises had to pay a fine of 40 million USD on charges of dumping contaminated oil and waste into the sea and trying to hide the violation. This is the heaviest penalty ever for a ship intentionally causing pollution. But perhaps, Princess Cruises still hasn't learned the lesson and continues to deliberately break the law of environmental protection.
