Hi James,
It is good to see such undertakings but I hope the Raccoon roadkills =
were left to feed carrion eaters. Many animals, especially some insects, =
depend upon carrion for survival.=20

Subject: [NatureNS] Great success - Clean Across Nova Scotia event
hi folks,=20
We had about 20 (?) enthusiastic people show up for the Clean Across =
Nova Scotia event this morning. The clean up focused on tributaries of =
the Elderkin Brook that runs through the Kentville Ravine. This was a =
joint effort between the Eco Kings Action Team, Friends of the Kentville =
Ravine Society and the Blomidon Naturalists Society and we were joined =
by others as well.=20
We gathered a huge pile of disgusting stuff...I'm not sure what others =
found, but our group's finds included:
- 4 roadkill racoons
- glass 'Pepsi-cola' bottles ("the Maritimes' #1 cola")
- Hostess chip bags from the 80's =20
- one sink=20
- election campaign signs
- every type of alcohol bottle except a Texas Mickey
- but all was outweighed by Tim Horton's cups
Thanks to Ed Sulis, Janet Whitman and Marina Myra for taking care of =
logistics, and Ken Harrison for the donation of supplies for the effort.
Thanks so much everyone for your efforts (especially in steep ravine =
terrain) and hope to join forces more in near future :)
cheers,=20
