Trip to Zealandia

The future can no longer be "What is going to happen?" It is "What are we going to do?"

New Zealand Needs Green Growth



Have you realised the incredible potential New Zealand has in playing a role for Green Growth? In many ways we are sitting on our hands, not engaging in the explosive potential for economic growth, and environmental modelling in our country to the rest of the world.
I share with you my thoughts on how Green Growth can be instilled as a core appreciation among young people, who are the leaders of the future for enacting change. I believe change will take place out of a natural response to an appreciation of our great country, and the opportunities it provides.

Feel free to learn more about the future of Green Growth on Pure Advantage's website.

Thanks Andrew for the info. 

Mangakahia Area School win gold

A Northland area school has scooped up a prestigious gold medal in environmental education.

Congratulations to Mangakahia Area School for their win.
"The caretaker suggested the students were trying to put him out of work. They have managed to reduce the volume of waste going to their local rubbish transfer station from one ute-load a week down to one every three weeks."
The environment is such a precious resource. There are so many schools doing so much in the way of promoting recycling and engaging the community in 'Making the world a little cleaner, and greener'
