ADIMS Winter Shoreline Cleanup Completed

environment · January to April 2021 · Denman Island shorelines

The Association for Denman Island Marine Stewards (ADIMS) completed a Winter Shoreline Cleanup from January to April 2021, collecting approximately 6-8 metric tons of marine debris including plastics and predator nets. The cleanup was funded by Fisheries and Oceans Canada as a one-time initiative responding to winter storm debris accumulation. The collected debris will be recycled by Ocean Legacy.

This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
