LWI 2022 Environmental Award

LWI 2022 Environmental Award

Presented to Lynn Tremain

For her work to educate the public about plastics in the environment and for her significant cleanup efforts.

What started as a month-long beach cleanup pledge in April 2021 has become a year of education and activism. Lynn Tremain has since cleaned almost 15 km of beach, collected nearly 700 mylar balloons (and countless other items), and started an Instagram account (@grancleansthebeach) to document and share her findings. She has been promoting the current e-3730 petition in Canada’s House of Commons to ban the release of balloons in Canada, and she has been interviewed on CBC radio. We are pleased to recognize Lynn’s advocacy work and the time she has spent keeping Lambton’s beaches and waters healthy with Lambton Wildlife’s Environmental Award.
