Thaddeus Eldgeford (SFS ‘24) does everything possible to reduce his carbon footprint. In fact, he stopped showering in 7th grade to save the icebergs and keep his family’s Malibu summer house above sea level, so inspiring! Sure, he’s an heir to the Standard Oil fortune, but it’s not even that much money anymore. Plus, he uses it to buy clothes from brands that plant trees or something so it basically cancels out.

It’s tough being a radical-anti-capitalist-anarcho-environmentalist in this day and age. It takes 5 whole seconds to say that every time he meets someone new, and that adds up when you think about it. After careful deliberation, Thaddeus has decided to temporarily give up environmentalism while aboard Royal Caribbean’s Seduction of the Seas for spring break.

“My moral compass was preventing me from going on this cruise, so I decided to just leave it at home.” That being said, he is bringing a metal straw for margs on the lido deck, so all hope is not lost!

Once back in Ft. Lauderdale, Thaddeus will immediately shame his fellow passengers for contributing to an industry that pollutes our precious oceans. For all you ladies out there Thaddeus is single and he recycles in public 😉
