Day of caring ... a chance to enjoy the beauty of Stanley Park

Every year the Vancouver Development Centre gathers for the day of caring, giving us an opportunity to work together outside of the digital divide and do something for our environment at the same time.

Our recent event took us to Stanely Park … I captured a few pictures of the beautiful harbour area while picking up litter, in particular glass in all shapes, sizes. I often wondered what stories the fragments from pottery, bottle, glasses and plates could tell.

Visit the Facts & Figures section, or download the 2014 Shoreline Cleanup Final Report for more details on what exactly was found along our shorelines last year. Aquatic debris is one of the biggest threats currently facing our oceans and waterways.

Before I forget, Happy Halloween!
