I kā lākou hōʻuluʻulu ʻana, kū lākou i kahi hāʻawi nui i ka mālama ʻana i ke kaiapuni. ʻO ko mākou manaolana e lilo kēia makana no AIDA Cruises ma ke ʻano he leka maikaʻi no ka hoʻokō ʻana i ka mālama ʻana i ke kaiapuni ma nā ʻoihana moana.
ʻO ka hoʻokomo ʻana o LNG i nā moku holo moku he mea hou e kākoʻo ana i nā pahuhopu kaiapuni o ka ʻoihana me ka hoʻopau piha ʻana o ka sulfur dioxide emissions (zero emissions) a me ka particulate matter (95% a 100% hōʻemi). ʻO ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka LNG e hōʻemi nui i ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana o nā ʻokikene nitrogen a me ka carbon dioxide.
ʻO nā moku holo ʻōmaʻomaʻo he ʻāpana koʻikoʻi o ka hoʻolālā hoʻolālā no ka hōʻemi ʻana i ka wāwae carbon, i wehewehe ʻia e Carnival Corporation's 2020 sustainability pahuhopu a hoʻokō piha ʻia e AIDA Cruises a me ʻewalu mau hōʻailona hou o ka hui.
