MEASURING OUR GREENHOUSE GAS FOOTPRINT Operating in the polar regions means witnessing climate change firsthand—and recognizing that our own emissions matter. Measuring our greenhouse gas footprint is the essential first step toward meaningful reductions. Tracking helps us identify where emissions are highest and where change will have the greatest impact. Since 2019, our data has informed decisions on fuel efficiency investments, route optimization, and technology upgrades. Decarbonizing in the polar regions comes with unique challenges. Our ships travel long distances in remote areas with limited access to alternative fuels, shore power, or supporting infrastructure. Despite these constraints, we remain committed to accurate measurement and data driven action. Establishing a clear baseline allows us to track progress and align decisions with a realistic, science based path to lower emissions. We focus on what we can directly control: our fleet, onboard technologies, and operational practices. Since our 2019 baseline, emissions intensity per passenger has decreased by 20% , driven by fleet improvements, more efficient repositioning voyages, and higher occupancy rates.
In 2025
GHG Emissions per Passenger -30% from 2019 Absolute GHG Emissions -20%
