Community Encouraged to Conserve Energy and Resources
environment · Denman Island
Local residents are encouraged to conserve energy by reducing home heating temperatures, wearing warm clothing indoors, using wool blankets and slippers, and employing draft-proofing measures to prepare for rising energy costs.
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.

Sheepskin slippers and wool socks will keep even the most delicate toes comfortable in the cold... Denman Hardware store has draft-proofing supplies.” — The Islands Grapevine – October 6th, 2022 (October 6th, 2022)
