What's on: Plant Power - 12 February 6:30pm - Grey Lynn

Brian from Westmere

The time has come for Conscious Action to take another look at plants and their power!

During this event we’ll be joined by knowledgeable and passionate speakers to celebrate the diversity and deliciousness of plants, get some top tips on how to grow our own plant kingdoms and learn more about how we can thrive on a plant-based diet.

We’ll explore the importance of growing our food, especially for those of us living in cities, as well as the core reasons why a growing number of us are choosing to eat more plants - environmental, ethical or health.

We are looking forward to hear from our guest speakers Sarah Tanner, vegan influencer who’s trying to weave in a little more eco consciousness, and Judy Keats AKA Green sister, Organics Educator, City Farm Manager, Permaculture Practitioner and Compost Facilitator.

Come along to meet like-minded individuals, join an interactive discussion, sharing and action setting on how you can have an impact.

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
