Three generations on an island in our Hauraki Gulf
Why do we only recognise a "climate emergency" when it's right in front of us, when our playing fields begin to drown, as is evident now in Little Shoal Bay?
Sue Neureuter's "Stories of The Noises" at 3pm this Sunday (8/9) at Sunnynook Community Centre, 148 Sycamore Drive, is about one family's experience of a changing Gulf over three generations. A very personal and moving account supported with images and sound. Entry is FREE. Here's a link to that event on Neighbourly, www.neighbourly.co.nz...
