rubbish dumping
i see in the chronicle that dumping rubbish is becoming a problem for castlecliff residents. i am not surprised when you look at the charges waste management are charging now. in less than a year a fadge of green waste has gone from $4.50 to $9.00. and that a trailer load of green waste is a minimum of $42.00. they are laughing all the way to the bank at our expense. counsel selling the collection of rubbish to a corporate entity was always going to end in disaster for the residents. i would love to check the bank accounts of the counselors who made this recommendation when it was mooted. i am sure they were paid off, as how else could they think it was going to be better for the residents?

Tacking the bamboo-like pest in the Manawatū
🌱 A new national scheme led by Biosecurity New Zealand is tackling an invasive weed that’s threatening wetlands, waterways, and forests in and around Manawatū, reports the Manawatū Standard.
💬 Our question to you: Do we sometimes overlook plants when investing in conservation?
Have you spotted this weed in your area, or noticed other local efforts to protect our native flora?
Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
