Publication of Conservation History Book

environment · May 2024 · Salish Sea islands

Sheila Harrington published 'Voices for the Islands,' a book chronicling the creation of local nature conservancies on seventeen islands in the Salish Sea from the 1990s to present, highlighting grassroots conservation efforts and the establishment of protected areas and parks.

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.
