Poll: Are you disappointed Dave Dobbyn has had to postpone his Auckland concert due to Covid-19 restrictions?

Ripu Bhatia Reporter from Community News

Hi neighbours,

Dave Dobbyn has postponed his Auckland date on Saturday September 12 due to the city’s Covid-19 alert level 2.5.

The gig was to take place at The Cauldron at the Spark Arena.

However, current alert levels from the government forbid gatherings of more than 10 people.

Are you disappointed?

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!
