Household battery recycling
Hi neighbours, recycling of household batteries (like AA, AAA, 9V etc.) is being trialled in Whangarei at the moment. More than forty businesses (including The Warehouse, Harvey Norman, Mitre 10 MEGA, Arthurs Emporium, Countdown Tikipunga and many more) as well as WDC, NRC and FNDC are participating. The batteries are collected in repurposed paint buckets that are labelled by Eco Solutions, see attached photo.
Please don't put household batteries in the general rubbish anymore - there's now a better way. Please drop them off at your favourite participating shop or collection point. Contact Eco Solutions www.ecosolutions.org.nz... if you need more information, or if you own a business and would like to join. Thanks in advance for helping to keep NZ beautiful.

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!
