The marine waters of Howe Sound have been an area for research and exploration for over 40 years. More recently, information and traditional knowledge are being brought together with planning tools for more informed decision making. There is a common interest in ensuring marine waters are healthy, that they support and protect marine life, and protect communities from impacts of climate change.
Help support response to Marine Debris during the West Vancouver Community Foundation Give Where you Live Campaign.
Recovery of the marine and estuary environment, and care for the ongoing protection of marine life in the Sound is supported by many organizations in the region. Learn more about their latest projects by contacting these organizations directly.
There are a growing number of tools available and in use for decision making. These tools include story maps that engage the community.
