If there is one thing you can do.
Hi all,
If there is one thing you can do, apart from making good personal choices, for the environment this year it is this....
Come to the meeting 6pm Monday 6th July at the council chambers.
Over the years a small group of dedicated people have been fighting to close an outdated waste management system that is ruining the environment. If you don't think you or your family are being affected by this...think again. The toxic gases released from the landfill are in the very air you breathe. Our water, our land, our air sustains us. The landfill is adversely affecting all of these. There is an agreement in place to close the landfill however the council are dragging their feet on naming a closure date. We must encourage them to make the right decision and how we can do this is by coming to the meeting and adding our voice to protest the delay. It is now, and we are the people who must, make the council (our representatives) do the right thing for all of us. This is a key turning point for the community. Think of the planet. Think of our kids.

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!
