Poll: Do people still check community noticeboards?

Jack Neighbourly Lead from Ponsonby

Hey team, Jack here again! 🌟

So, I was doing my weekly grocery run at Countdown Supermarket, and while waiting in line, I noticed their public noticeboard. It was filled with various ads and community notices – everything from local events to job listings. It got me thinking about how often we interact with these noticeboards in different places.

Personally, I always find interesting stuff on the one at the supermarket – you never know what local gems you’ll discover! But I wonder if others feel the same way.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

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, we’re 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 — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
