Much of what we do on land affects our seas. We can help improve the condition of the ocean and enhance its resilience to climate change and human activities.
The Department of Conservation and WWF-New Zealand are proud to announce the launch of Changing Tides: Tai Tōrua an exciting new webinar series about protecting the well-being of our ocean!
Hosted on Zoom, Changing Tides: Tai Tōrua will bring together experts from Aotearoa and around the world to discuss issues facing our moana, and the impacts of climate change on our marine environment.
All invited to the Roy Clements Treeway to pick up rubbish and see the wetlands, rock forest and wildlife.
Saturday update: We will go ahead – just prepare for the odd light shower.
When: 10 am – 12 noon Saturday 22 February Where: Kerr Taylor Reserve, 35 Fergusson Ave, Mt Albert. Meet on the bridge leading to the school. What to bring: Hat, water, sunscreen, walking shoes. Also plastic bags & gardening gloves if you have them. Cancellation will be posted here by 8am Saturday 22nd in case the weather is poor.
Due to the efforts of our member Daniel Currin, who is active in the lower creek, we now have a new logo to represent STEPS. A logo is not something we have previously had as an organisation, so we are most pleased! Thanks Daniel for making this happen.
So, here it is, the thriving harakeke plant (or flax as you may know it) communicates the core environmental protection purpose of the society, and is of course something we see a lot in wetland environments. The blue represents the water of the creek.
Expect this to appear on our communications channels soon!
