Shark tales - what sea creatures have you been up close and personal with?
A shark spotted on an Abel Tasman National Park beach had spectators amazed and swimmers dashing for dry land. Tom Mills was up from Christchurch enjoying a time on Whariwharangi Beach with family when they saw what they believed to be a Bronze Whaler shark close to shore. Have you had a close encounter with any marine animals this summer? Tell us below of your experiences.
Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
