Its environmental impact has been a priority since the design process began, as demonstrated by green elements such as a onemegawatt solar power supply, full facility LED lighting, low water usage for all buildings and facilities, and a recycling programme. NCP has also introduced the ‘It ’s in Our Hands’ sustainability programme to establish and promote its commitment to environmental protection. The latest initiatives include daily harbour clean-up exercises and a new environmental donation box to support local non-governmental organisations. Nassau Cruise Port, The Bahamas Port Saint John, located on the Bay of Fundy in the Canadian province of New Brunswick, has plans to make its two cruise terminals fully wind-powered in 2023. The port, which just celebrated its threemillionth cruise passenger, has partnered with a local utilities provider and purchased renewable energy certificates to cover 100 per cent of its corporate energy use. This means that passengers coming to Saint John and towns located in the Bay region can rest assured that their travels have little to no impact on the local environment in terms of energy use while in the cruise terminals. Port Saint John, Canada Port Milwaukee is proud to work with its Great Lakes partners to preserve and protect the local environment for years to come.
