We are beyond excited to collaborate with OCIN to bring an ocean education vignette experience to the Somewhere Sunnier pop-up. This vignette will be simple, reflective and purposeful. It gives visitors an overview of how Surfrider sees the plastic reduction solution across Canada. It also draws attention to the top litter we have found across our cleanups in Canada to date. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62ab534f033ac21eb082a381/98f88bdd-2853-460c-b57d-1aaf338bbd91/2.png Blog - The Somewhere Sunnier Pop-Up with friends of the ocean: Friday through Sunday: July 21-23, 2023 - clean kits beach with us On Sunday July 23, join Surfrider and OCIN at Kits Beach to clean up the beach. It’s sure to be a fun time not only picking up litter, but also sorting through and properly conducting a waste audit. Surfrider Vancouver works with the City of Vancouver to properly divert as much waste from the landfill as possible and at minimum, we count through all waste to ensure it’s all logged properly. For this special Kits Beach pop-up clean, we are also thankful for our beverage sponsor, Hoochy Booch Kombucha, who will be rewarding the first 50 beach clean up attendees who check-in with us with a tasty can of kombucha. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62ab534f033ac21eb082a381/2d186483-3c30-4017-b2c0-ccc997ba78eb/Blog+Post+Image+-+OCIN+Pop-Up+%282%29.png Blog - The Somewhere Sunnier Pop-Up with friends of the ocean: Friday through Sunday: July 21-23, 2023 - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62ab534f033ac21eb082a381/1689741696140-HGWPULOMK441GJLYM6SK/image-asset.jpeg Blog - The Somewhere Sunnier Pop-Up with friends of the ocean: Friday through Sunday: July 21-23, 2023 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62ab534f033ac21eb082a381/1655395164993-V8R8BAYABACDWBJIJXC0/87852316_1927433244057377_2055123253927608320_o.jpg Blog - The Somewhere Sunnier Pop-Up with friends of the ocean: Friday through Sunday: July 21-23, 2023 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62ab534f033ac21eb082a381/1655395173491-9DHHTY7LC83GYOBIPSM6/4F05A30A-A313-40D6-A3C0-8DC24E1AA80D.jpg Blog - The Somewhere Sunnier Pop-Up with friends of the ocean: Friday through Sunday: July 21-23, 2023 https://vancouverbc.surfrider.ca/blog/vancouver-against-single-use-plastics-are-we-doing-enough monthly 0.5 2023-05-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62ab534f033ac21eb082a381/ebcc743c-6568-4fb6-86ec-8c40e24b4da6/cleanup_daniellecampani_116.jpg Blog - Vancouver's Fight Against Single-Use Plastics: Are We Doing Enough? - Make it stand out Photo credit: Beach clean up volunteer Danielle Campani - Kitsilano Beach Clean up 2019 https://vancouverbc.surfrider.ca/blog/nbspplastic-not-fantastic-vancouvers-5-easy-steps-to-a-greener-scene monthly 0.5 2023-04-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62ab534f033ac21eb082a381/8b641638-2482-4287-af05-27c9a20184d3/Photographer%3A+Madi+Inman Blog - Plastic?

ban the bead victory In 2014, Surfrider Vancouver Chapter launched Canada’s first campaign to ban microbeads, called “Ban The Bead”. Volunteers reached out to officials at the City of Vancouver, the BC Ministry of Environment, BC MLAs and federal Members of Parliament to ban microbreads from consumer products - which garnered significant political, public and media attention. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62ab534f033ac21eb082a381/6e04307f-4925-465a-a784-194548d3b16e/Screen+Shot+2022-07-29+at+12.53.32+PM.png Victories Why microbeads? Microbeads are a relatively new product on the market being first introduced about 20 years ago. Only recently research has discovered risks to infrastructure, ecosystems, animals and humans. With research only beginning to assess these risks it is anticipated that greater damages will be discovered the longer the product stay on the market. Plastic microbeads appear in many single use products including cosmetics, face washes, body scrubs, exfoliants, toothpastes, laundry and dishwasher detergents. Typically made of polypropylene, polyethylene, nylon or polyethylenephthalate these each product can contain over 300,000 plastic microbeads in one container (tube, bottle, box, etc). Measuring less than 1 millimeter in diameter the microbead is designed to last forever with an estimated life cycle of over 10,000 years. By contrast, the products that use these microbeads, such as toothpaste are used only once and designed to be washed down the drain. https://vancouverbc.surfrider.ca/why-surfrider daily 0.75 2025-02-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62ab534f033ac21eb082a381/eeae1a6c-29fc-4057-81e8-84a525e9ee8e/2024ImpactReport_Cover_Logo.jpg Why Surfrider? - Make it stand out Read our 2024 Impact Report https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62ab534f033ac21eb082a381/e5cfd82c-671f-43b8-8e8d-044718e2c2bf/sea-lion-top-grey.jpg Why Surfrider? - Protect & Enjoy Our local Surfrider Chapter is part of a greater international organization of volunteers.

YOU CAN HELP CHANGE THAT! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62ab534f033ac21eb082a381/b7623e85-d4dd-44df-be36-1926c17fd313/Ciggy+Stardust Hold On To Your Butt - “Ciggy Stardust” For Ocean Week Canada on June 10th, 2023, Surfrider Vancouver unveiled “Ciggy Stardust”, a visual representation of ocean cigarette waste in the form of a sculptured youth Southern Resident orca whale covered in over 6,200 sorted and meticulously trimmed cigarette butts found on our local beaches. This culturally and ecologically significant orca population is currently at risk of extinction with only 73 individuals left in the three Southern Resident pods. The exhibit establishes a link between urban cigarette pollution and our deep connection to the Salish Sea and it’s protection. Using this visual representation of cigarette waste, Surfrider Vancouver will continue to advocate for the policies and societal shifts in behaviour which addresses cigarette pollution and the protection of our ocean, beaches, and waves for future generations. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62ab534f033ac21eb082a381/0648c094-c22a-4f14-9d55-9518b59a73ed/image-asset.jpeg Hold On To Your Butt - Help spread the word! Did you know there is a fine for littering cigarette butts? Discarding cigarette butts on the ground is subject to a minimum fine of $250 up to $10,000! Due to the presence of batteries, electronic components, and tobacco or cannabis residue, vaping and e-cigarette devices are considered hazardous waste in British Columbia. While there is currently no extended producer responsibility program for these items, some smoke shops will take back these devices for recycling by the producer. If your device cannot be recycled this way, the next best option is to remove and recycle the batteries, and place the rest of the device in the garbage. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/62ab534f033ac21eb082a381/18bb8771-7d00-4ffb-b668-b6f32c519f67/pocket1.jpg Hold On To Your Butt - USE POCKET ASHTRAYS!
