What do you think about the plans for a landfill in Dome Valley?

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Plans for a landfill site predicted to add 450 return vehicle trips a day to one of New Zealand's deadliest roads, has residents riled up.

Private waste company Waste Management wants to build the rubbish dump in Dome Valley, on land between Wellsford and Warkworth. It would replace the Redvale Landfill and Energy Park in Dairy Flat, which is predicted to reach capacity between 2026 and 2028.

At least 11 people have died on the 12km stretch of State Highway 1, between Warkworth and Wellsford, north of Auckland, since 2006. Read more here

What do you think about this? Is there an area you thin could be better suited?

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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!
