Earth Day Litter Pick-up event in Taupo on Sunday, April 22
Earth Day Network, the global coordinator of Earth Day, is building the world’s largest coalition of people united in ensuring we have a healthy planet.
This year, the focus is around a reduction in plastics globally, and here in Taupō we can do our part by picking up litter and educating ourselves in ways we can help clean up and recycle plastics in our region.
So how can we do our part? Come and help us tidy up!
Following on from tree-planting days and previous litter pick-up events, Taupō District Council has an ongoing commitment to providing green options for our waste, in addition to reducing our overall carbon footprint and being responsible environmental citizens.
Join the team at the Float Plane car park in Ferry Road where volunteers will be split up to cover different areas, including the Tongariro domain, our lakefront and CBD.

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!
