Carnival UK
Throughout Dr Alison's public engagement, Carnival UK was a particularly important company to invite her to give talks about sustainable engineering for, as these took place on cruise ships during luxurious travel holidays. This helped the shipping sector industry to be aware of the need to lower emissions of fossil fuels and helped raise awareness of climate change to the customers of that industry and others within the shipping business. This is especially vital as this is the hardest area to imporove sustainability effectively.
