Bay of Island walking tracks to be closed after Kauri dieback
Seven tracks in Puketi Forest have closed permanently to stop the spread of kauri dieback disease.

"We urge the public to respect the closures and no longer access these tracks, otherwise they'll be putting our kauri at great risk."

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.
