[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • The Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas set sail today on a seven-day island-hopping voyage in the Caribbean before returning to Miami

  • Despite claims that the LNG being used is better than traditional marine fuel, environmentalists believe the ship poses high risks for methane emissions

  • Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas and is the second-largest contributor to climate warming after carbon dioxide
