Cozumel: cruise ship traffic

[MidOH]

Not if you dont drag your anchor stupidly, and manage to get your garbage to where its supposed to go.

And dont start with Co2. You fly to your destinatiion. Personally, giving something for trees to breath, doesnt sound so bad. I dont dont buy the Co2 narrative, from people constantly on jetliners.

Enjoy your cruise ships, rising temperatures, bleached reefs, crazy weather patterns. Hope the all you can eat carnival buffet was worth it.

This will be my last post in this thread, not point debating when the other party flat out rejects science.

Enjoy your sea urchin barrens, smog, noise pollution, skunky smell, and poo covered sidewalks.

I think it's the divers realization of their own hypocrisy, that gets them so riled up. Guess ill just use the ignore button.

The fact is that human travel and amusements affect the environment; fingerpointing and wishing everyone would just stay home doesn't accomplish anything. Sound and fury, signifying nothing.

FWIW, I do not know of a single diver who has crapped on a sidewalk.

I have to wonder why you were. I just donated to food banks.

You are wondering why BRT was in Cozumel in 2020? Can't speak for BRT, but for me it was the same reasons as all the other times, with the diving and weather high on the list.

That must have been when 'everything' was shut down for a couple months (silly governments!). We were there several times during the Covid times and really enjoyed our visits. It was kinda like stepping back in time; much mellower, no cruise ships, lots of divers, locals were even friendlier/happier for tourists. Seems to me like Coz is going through a hyper mode of change since the pandemic (or is it a result of the pandemic?)

When I was there in 2020 there were no shops open and restaurants were takeout only. We were the only tourists.

I am glad that most respected the emergency need for not going while people were dying all over. I just donated to food banks.

I know you're joking but I wouldnt say that. I drove here from Massachusetts.
