Sunday Street Cleaning
Big thank you to four new kaitiakis at Earth Action street clean on 16 May 2021 at Wesley, Mt Roskill. Picked up 33 kgs of litter of which 60% should go to recyclable and compostable.
Two encouragements received which fattens the heart of kaitiakis: 1) Pacific boy about to go to church and said ‘thank you for looking after our environment’ and 2) an Indian fellow with litter in front of his property and said ‘don’t pick that up, we will sort it’
As they say ‘Every LITTER bit counts. Email vina.chen@earthactiontrust.org.nz your availability, if you are keen to join any our street cleaning on
-- 23 & 30 May, Sundays ( 8-11AM)
-- regular 2nd Thursday of the months (10Am-12nn)
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
