Let’s Stop Ship Pollution in Virginia
A Public Talk on Commercial Shipping, Pollution, and Community Impacts
By Dr. Robert F. Hodson, Executive Director, Protect Virginia Inc.
Cruise ships and commercial vessels bring visitors and revenue to Virginia—but they also generate significant air and water pollution that affects public health, local waterways, and coastal communities.
This talk examines the hidden environmental and health costs of ship pollution, challenges industry claims about economic benefits, and explores practical policy solutions to protect Virginia’s waters, its seafood economy, and residents.
Join us for an informative presentation on ship emissions, waste discharge, fuel choices, and the growing movement for cleaner, more accountable maritime practices in Virginia.
