Terry Simmons, a Greenpeace pioneer, died at his home in Vancouver Nov. 14, 2020. A plaque on the False Creek sea wall in Vancouver commemorates Greenpeace's inaugural voyage and the people on the ship. He helped thwart a large ski resort proposed for Cypress Mountain and development of Vancouver's University of British Columbia's "University Beach," now better known as Wreck Beach. This is a photographic record by Robert Keziere of the very first Greenpeace voyage, which departed Vancouver on Sept. 15, 1971. Brownstein met Simmons through their work with the Forest History Association of B.C., where Simmons was a director.
