The Plastic Bag Initiative seeks to reduce carbon footprint and runoff pollution impacts by eliminating the use of plastic bags at Commissaries and other shops across the military bases in Hampton Roads. The Commissary at Naval Air Station Oceana has committed to this as of 2025 and has asked the youth to facilitate the transition to reusable bags via a summer awareness campaign!
Thank you for your interest in the Elizabeth River Project’s Ryan Resilience Lab. We’re delighted that our site is in high demand. As the Ryan Resilience Lab is operated by a small non-profit with a big environmental mission, please help us make sure your event is a great fit.
Our priority is to host groups with relevance to our mission: to restore the Elizabeth River through equitable collaboration with diverse communities, governments, and businesses. When space and staff support are available, we are happy to host such groups free of charge, but do request that you consider an organizational membership and allow us to offer the opportunity for individual memberships.
Please fill this form out at least 30 days in advance of the event.
