Success in Kyuquot, BC!

By Shylo

Ocean Legacy Action!

We have been working out in Kyuquot, BC loading up beach trash and hauling it off the shoreline. The bulk of the garbage was collected by Luke Osenenko and the Nuu-chan-nulth Tribal Council this summer. We ended up building a giant raft out of some of the larger pieces of styrofoam and floating the garbage off the shoreline in two massive loads!
 

UPDATE:  We have now co-created two NOAA cumulative survey sights just outside of Kyuquot, BC and managed to float tonnes of garbage off of Brooks Peninsula, Vancouver Island BC! What a great week, thanks so much to Luke and Heh-tin’kis from the Nuu-Chah- Nukth Tribal Council. We are excited to continue our work together and look forward to building cleaner oceans.
