All you have to do is slow down

 

Save the Whales (in some places) means just taking a few knots off the cruise speed.








To Stop Whale Strikes, Ships Were Asked To Slow Down.  It Worked.

"And the results? In 2021, NOAA says all the slowing down meant a 50% reduction in whale strikes.

And for the companies—incentives ranged from $5,000 to $50,000 per company depending on how much they slowed down."

(And it also helps improve air quality.)
