Stop Ship Pollution!

The cruise industry is expanding in Virginia. Carnival now has a home port in Virginia and Norwegian Cruise Lines has announced plans for 2027. With industry expansion comes a significant increase in pollution risking our culture, economy, and health. Highly acidic wastewater with toxins accumulates in oysters and fish endangering our $12B seafood economy. Fine particulate from ships burning dirty fuel is linked to cardiovascular disease, cancer, and birth defects.
