RESULTS ARE IN! (๐๐ฐ๐ธ ๐ฐ๐ญ๐ฅ ๐ช๐ด ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ ๐จ๐ข๐ณ๐ข๐จ๐ฆ ๐ฅ๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ณ?)
We recently asked how old your garage door is, and the results are in! ๐ก
๐ก๐ฒ๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐ฏ๐ผ๐๐ฟ๐ต๐ผ๐ผ๐ฑ ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ด๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐๐:
โก๏ธ 25% of you have doors between 10-20 years old
โก๏ธ 58.3% have doors over 20 years old (Wow! ๐ฒ)
โก๏ธ 16.7% donโt have a garage
If your garage door is 20+ years old, it might be time to consider an upgrade. Newer doors offer better security, insulation, and smart features to make life easier! ๐ช
If you've had a garage door replacement on your mind, get in touch! We offer a complimentary consultation with our Mobile Showroom.
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, weโre a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature โ and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
