SAVE THE WAVES – Royal Caribbean Environment Program

Save the Waves
Royal takes great effort in the education of our employees regarding the importance of saving the waves, by supporting this very important and solid program.
For nearly 40 years, our company has carried out a wide variety of environmental activities. In 1992, we formalized those efforts into a program we call Save The Waves®. Since its creation, the Save The Waves® program has evolved from a program focused on reducing, reusing and recycling waste to a companywide philosophy that is integrated into the daily operations onboard all our ships.
Save the Waves® has become an integral part of each crew member’s job and is the backbone of daily operations onboard our ships. There are four key principles of Save The Waves®:
- Reduce, Reuse, Recycle – Reduce the generation of waste material, reuse and recycle wherever possible, and properly dispose of remaining wastes.
- Practice Pollution Prevention – Nothing may be thrown overboard. Nothing.
- Go Above and Beyond Compliance (ABC) - means doing more than is required by regulations.
- Continuous Improvement - Change is the only constant; innovation is encouraged and rewarded.
