Idoia from South New Brighton

Kia ora community!

It is unfortunately the second year in a row that our young entrepreneurs have been impacted by the lockdown and we have had to cancel our awesome yearly market at Tūranga.

To support our teams we are running a FB YES Market Page - We have some wonderful Christchurch businesses sponsoring the page with over $1300 worth of amazing experiences to be won.

I invite you to check the page out, vote for your favorite YES business/es and enter the competition to treat yourself to some fun... and even do some early Xmas shopping!

YES is a non for profit supporting last year of high school students in their first entrepreneuring venture through business studies. Over 20 Christchurch high schools participate in the Young Enterprise Scheme (YES).

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

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!
