Lisbon was the busiest European city in terms of cruise ship traffic in 2017 and is the sixth port city in Europe with most pollutants, according to a study by the European Transport and Environment Federation.
According to the document, in 2017, Carnival Corporation, the world’s largest luxury cruise operator, emitted about 10 times more sulphur oxide on European shores than the 260 million European cars. Barcelona, Palma de Mallorca and Venice are the most affected cities, followed by Rome and Southampton, and Lisbon in sixth.
