A Global Concern
When we were in Southeast Asia before the pandemic we toured Gardens by the Bay in Singapore. These signs underscore the need to take action to protect our environment. We encourage you to start your education on this Earth Day 2022, and take steps to conserve and recycle during your vacations and daily lives.
Thank you to CLIA, Participating Cruise Lines, EPA, Earth Day Network and their sponsors for efforts to educate and make changes necessary for sustainability. And thank YOU for doing your part.
We must work together to protect endangered and threatened species: bees, coral reefs, elephants, giraffes, insects, whales and more.
