Poll: Hybrid Work ... Game-Changer or Culture Killer? 🚀
Many workplaces now embrace hybrid working — splitting time between home and the office. For years, people have built their routines and lifestyles around this flexibility.

Poll: Will we reach our Predator Free target in 2050?
Aotearoa New Zealand is aiming to be predator-free in 2050 to ensure our islands' unique species of birds, frogs, lizards and plants can thrive.

New Zealand has among the highest proportions of threatened or at-risk species in the world, and around 25 million native birds are killed by introduced predators every year. But it's not all bad news - when predators are removed or controlled, nature bounces back fast. We’ve already seen it happening in many parts of the country!
People all over Aotearoa are doing their bit - setting traps in their backyards, planting natives, volunteering, or donating. You can too! Backyard trapping is one example of effective individual action.
What do you think? Can we reach our Predator Free target in 2050?
Share your thoughts in the comments!
-
25.7% Yes - through government, community and individual action.

33.5% No - this is not a realistic goal.
-
38.5% Maybe - perhaps adjust the goal to 'predator management'?

2.3% This is a nuanced issue (share in the comments).
