❌ Les croisières de luxe déversent des tonnes de déchets à la mer

❌ False: This image was generated by artificial intelligence. From the outset, we can see an inconsistency with a cruise ship supposedly positioned in front of another whose size appears disproportionate. The eddies in the water are also very strange A mirror view of the same video was used on a completely different topic: the transfer of sand from the Florida coast to the beaches. https://cvc.li/YVhWb Cruise ships are not allowed to dump sewage just anywhere as they please. The MARPOL Convention governs the prevention of pollution from ships. Annex 4 deals with sewage and stipulates that the discharge of this water is prohibited within 3 nautical miles of the nearest land if the ship is not equipped with a treatment system (grinding + disinfection). https://cvc.li/nftme Without a treatment system, the ship must be more than 12 nautical miles from the coast, and untreated sewage should be discharged at a moderate rate that has to be approved by the Administration, when the ship is en route and proceeding at a speed not less than 4 knots. https://cvc.li/gyXxQ
