Our Guiding Principles As a recognized local leader in community improvement, KBB is guided by these principles: ▪ Education: Education is the key to encouraging positive behaviours toward community improvement. ▪ Individual Responsibility: Improving communities, the environment, and quality of life all begins with personal responsibility and individuals becoming more engaged as citizens and environmental stewards. ▪ Community Partnerships: Broad-based community alliances with public and private organizations are essential to achieve sustainable community improvement. ▪ Volunteer Action: By engaging volunteers we extend the reach of our education and multiply the impact of our actions. Our Focus KBB endeavours to change behaviour and improve the community through a focus on: 1. Litter Prevention: Identifying the causes and reducing litter through educational programmes, organised cleanups, and the promotion of correct waste disposal. 2. Waste Reduction: Reducing the impact of waste in our communities by supporting programmes that encourage reduction, reuse and recycling, composting, and education about waste-to-energy. 3. Beautification: Improving the visual aspects of our communities through collaborative projects of community greening, including urban planters, and graffiti prevention. 4 Minutes of the previous AGM held on Tuesday 5 March 2019 at 6:00 pm at the Police Club in Prospect KBB Awards Ceremony: The President, Amy Shillingford, and Executive Director, Anne Hyde, acknowledged the following people and groups who received KBB Certificates of Appreciation for work done in 2018: • Vanese Flood as a dedicated environmentalist and KBB advocate • Ashley Stephens, Ashley’s Lemonade as a young entrepreneur promoting re-usable and green products • Andrew Shailer for inventing the microplastics collection tubes at beaches • Jessica Riederer for photo-documenting ocean plastics and lovable marine creatures • Meredith Andrews for photography of ocean plastics and the #Adventgram series • Vincent Darrell as the 2018 outstanding Junior Volunteer • Artex Risk as the 2018 Best Adopt-a-Spot team KBB’s Environmental Partner Award was presented to Bermuda National Trust for partnering for the past six years to deliver marine environmental education to students enrolled in the BNT camps during summer and holiday breaks. KBB and BNT also partnered on a 2-year project to cull invasive species and remove the underlying litter at the Paget Marsh Nature Reserve. The KBB President’s Award was presented to Nik Bhola, General Manager at Coral Beach Club, for implementing several environmental initiatives at the Club to eliminate single-use plastics, reduce waste, and encourage beach clean-ups. He also partners with KBB for the Christmas at Elbow event with parking at Horizons. 2018 Accomplishments: KBB’s Executive Director Anne Hyde presented a slide show of photos that highlighted many of the achievements from 2018 for clean-ups and environmental education and pointed out many successful collaborations. During the year, KBB supported clean-ups in 138 locations with volunteers giving 6,590 hours of their time to clean up 66,500 pounds of litter and illegally dumped waste from Bermuda’s roadsides, parks, beaches and the Railway Trail. Call to Order: The President called the AGM to order at 6:36 pm. Copies of the KBB 2018 Annual Report were distributed to the approximately 40 people who were in attendance. Approval of previous AGM Minutes: KBB’s President ask everyone to silently read the Minutes from the previous year’s AGM.

It was RESOLVED by all members present that the Financial Statements be approved as presented. Election of Officers and Board of Directors: The Executive Director read the draft slate of Officers and Directors and asked the nominees to stand up for the audience. There were no further nominations. It was RESOLVED by all members present that those on the slate be elected as the Officers and Directors to serve as KBB’s Board for the next year, as follows: President: Amy Shillingford Director: Susan Black Vice President: Stefan Smith Director: Ashley Harris Treasurer: (vacant) Director: Sarah Daniels Director: Karlos Burch Director: Marcia Brown Guest Speaker: KBB’s President welcomed and introduced our guest speaker, Dr. Robbie Smith, Curator of BAMZ Natural History Museum and chief scientist for the Bermuda Marine Debris Taskforce to talk about “Plastics Polluting Our Seas”. Any Other Business: KBB’s President thanked retiring Director Roger Todd for valuable service on KBB’s Board. She also thanked the Bermuda Police Commissioner for allowing us to hold the AGM at the Police Club free of charge. There being no other business, the meeting adjourned at 7:15 pm. - Minutes taken by Anne Hyde, Executive Director 5 President’s Report International coastal cleanup coordinator’s conference In May 2019 our executive director, Anne, travelled to Miami for the International Coastal Cleanup Coordinators Conference for the Caribbean region. This was a tremendous opportunity for KBB to connect with other island jurisdictions to share and discuss the problems that we are all facing—an increased amount of ocean trash washing up onto our shores. We were able to share strategies on what we are implementing in each of our countries. Bermuda has some catching up to do, as we are lagging behind some of the Caribbean islands to our south as far as policy and legislation. Plastic ocean pollution has reached crisis proportions. One can no longer go to a beach in Bermuda without seeing evidence washing ashore. David Wingate recently pointed out, at the Greenpeace presentation last year, that Bermuda has faced these crises before and that he remained hopeful that our oceans could recover. For example, we've been able to combat the problems of tar on our beaches. Bermuda along with other countries bordering the Atlantic came together and lobbied for international law to stop oil tankers from cleaning out their bilges at sea. We won that battle and you no longer find tar on our beaches. Although we are being inundated by plastic trash washing ashore all around the world, KBB is hopeful that by working together on a global scale and with multiple approaches we can get through this. We believe that the focus should fall not only on the consumer to dispose of the waste correctly, but also focus on the manufacturers who should be held accountable for creating single use plastic waste. Dell conference In June, we welcomed 600 Dell conference delegates to the Fairmont Southampton, Bermuda. This was a fun event, but challenging event. The conference was a reward trip for top Dell sales people around the world and several hundred of them engaged in community service projects with KBB including beach and railway trail cleanups and painting bins for KBB’s Artful Bins Project. It enhanced their enjoyment of being in Bermuda and was extremely beneficial for us bringing additional volunteers. Our volunteers are often surprised by what and how much they find at cleanups. When you arrive it can look pristine, but when you start looking the trash is often hidden in the bushes. Greenpeace Greenpeace's vessel Esperanza visited Bermuda in July as part of its Pole to Pole expedition to explore the effects of climate change, overfishing and oil drilling on our oceans. It kicked off its expedition to the Sargasso Sea from our shores to study the impact of plastics and microplastics on marine life
