Princess Cruises’ Guests Support Wildlife in New Zealand’s Bay of Islands
About 50 children from New Zealand’s Bay of Islands have been busy building ‘houses’ for threatened kiwis and penguins as part of the community’s effort to encourage the return of native wildlife in the area.
The children were part of an enthusiastic group of volunteers who helped build rock and cement shelters for the Kororā (Māori for little blue penguin) along the shoreline at the Waitangi Treaty Grounds. The houses provide a safe haven for the birds to raise their young.
Organised by local conservation group, Bay Bush Action, volunteers also decorated and installed kiwi houses in the heart of the Opua State Forest to encourage prime nesting conditions for the iconic national bird.
Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings has cancelled all sailings until at least the end of May as the cruise sector struggles to battle back from the Covid-19 pandemic.

AP Moller-Maersk has said all of its future owned newbuildings will have duel-fuel systems allowing them to run on zero-carbon fuels. Maersk has been something of a laggard in new ship orders recently the company is currently the only global carrier without a new order in for larger boxships leading to speculation that it was waiting to formulate its decarbonisation plans before ordering. The company now says it will operate its first carbon-neutral container ship by
2023, ordering a new feeder vessel designed to be run on synthetic or bio-methanol. All of its future newbuildings will be able to run on zero-carbon fuels, Maersk said in a statement on its website on Wednesday.
