The mayor of Nice is moving to ban large cruise ships from docking in its port, aiming to tackle pollution and overtourism. The decision mirrors Venice’s 2021 ban, introduced to protect its fragile environment and infrastructure.

This can start a death spiral - the more cities & ports are banning cruise ships in the Mediterranean, the more traffic the other cities will get. That will increase the problems there, leading to demands to also ban cruise ships there and so on.
I see zero problems with that whatsoever.
