- The stunning new generation Yaris Hatch has been in store for a week or so now, a zippy little ball of fun at a great price
- And last but by no means least, the 2021 Toyota Hilux is just around the corner! Talk to us now about reserving a test drive ... these beasts will be in hot demand when they debut!
We hope everyone is doing okay in these strange times ... stay safe.
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, 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!
