BOWEN ISLAND We are a small island surrounded by salty ocean water, and so there are limits to our freshwater supply. Yet all life - people, other animals and plants - rely utterly on a continued supply. So we need to answer important questions: Do we have enough water? Are we using it wisely? Are we protecting our drinking water supplies? Are we leaving Bowen enough for nature?

  • A Bowen Island Case Study
    DWELLING, TOURISM AND SUSTAINABILITY ON THE RURAL- URBAN FRINGE: A BOWEN ISLAND CASE STUDY by Donna Nona Pettipas BFA, University of Victoria, 1981 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF Master of Arts in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Resource Management and Environmental Studies) The University of British Columbia (Vancouver) January, 2010 © Donna Nona Pettipas, 2010 ABSTRACT The thesis examines the question of why people live in rural communities, what draws them to these communities and the significance of social sustainability. The focus is on the view of individual perspectives that could be obtained through the process of completed questionnaires and interviews. Results of the combined questionnaire and interviews were referenced to earlier studies and to government statistics. The community of Bowen Island served as the case study, a rural community with a historical and evolving relationship to Metro Vancouver, British Columbia. The research activity was designed to be one of information and knowledge gathering, rather than an issue-oriented approach. The approach taken is one of discovering patterns of shared values and the adaptive practices of islanders in their homes and community environs. Transcribed interview responses were grouped by enquiry type to facilitate comparison between participants across BI neighbourhoods, resulting in qualitatively rich personal narratives about home, habitat and community engagement. The community is physically engaged in a beautiful mountainous and marine environment, which is also a tourist destination. Fun is a quality of BI‘s community celebrations along with spirituality and a connection to nature, the backdrop to a privileged life-style; some with ‗plenty of dough‘ most somewhere in-between ranging to bohemian artists, sharing in the community dynamic.
