It has been well documented across the globe that mega cruise ships are a polluting agent in every port of call. National governing agencies lack the resources to effectively assure compliance with regulatory policies, as evidence continues to surface putting the environment of life giving resources at risk. Virginia must be a leader to enacting policies that will restore healthy air and water for all habitats of our State. Ban mega cruise ships from Virginia's rivers and the unique Chesapeake Bay.  Support clean, treated discharges, both in the air and the water. Virginia's seafood and fishing industries need your protective actions to insure the recreational and commercial areas for all of our citizens. When you do your personal research, you will find a pathway forward.
