Our latest pond party was a success, around 50 people showed up for good music, and got to educate about flows and the Nounish culture! https://youtube.com/shorts/0tgU2cpyJ-0?si=906e2QdH369vcgEr

In an effort to reduce the amount of cigarettes littered along the river I’m experimenting with putting some places to butt out on benches and tables along the path. I’ll check up on them in a few weeks to see if anyone uses them!

False spring is over, squashing my plans for a beach cleanup today. So instead I’ll organize my garbage art collection, as next month I plan to host a gathering teaching people how to make collage art out of garbage!

Got back to Canada yesterday and headed straight to the Elbow river to do a cleanup. There was less garbage than I expected but still managed to fill a bag with lots of plastic wrappers and packaging, and 15 cigarette butts https://youtube.com/shorts/KlUJ7U6DGhA?si=k4T1KuoGlGaDlC24

During a trip to the coast to escape the cold, I picked up some beach litter from Mowat Bay Park (coordinates 49.8799628, -124.5288421) Lots of coffee cups, motor oil jugs, and fast food packaging ✌️

Here’s our last FrogFest Nounish meetups, with our core volunteers to talk about flow funding and the noun universe, and plan upcoming events. I didn’t think to film any of the meeting so I offer instead an excerpt of our minutes. We were not able to secure a venue for February so we had to schedule for March 8th. The pond party comittee has been hard at work cooking up some great events once things thaw and things come out of hibernation . March 8th and may third will ramp up the momentum to bigger events and greater environmental and community support. This funding is crucial as we are a poor not for profit and we want to pay the artists well. #meetups #eco #frogfest

It’s been so terribly cold and snowy so I have not been able to do many beach cleanups this month. Instead I have been busy making art from the discarded plastic and litter I collect. I am focusing on recreating native fish species in order to draw attention to the health for our rivers

Pretty proud of my grid for my Silly Little Nature show. I’m on IG and YouTube if you want random rants, fun ecology facts, zero waste opinions, litter pickups and up cycled plastic art 😊
