Help fight plastic pollution with a simple like

Sam from Hamilton East

Kia ora fellow nature lovers,

Navigating Nature educates and collaborates with locals on plastic waste in Indonesia and they need your likes to continue.
www.facebook.com...

I would like to introduce you to Matt and Nadine who are behind Navigating Nature. They are two friends of mine who are bringing a research vessel from Australia to the Caribbean and along the way have been organising trips to schools (mostly in Indonesia) to educate children about the issues plastic cause in the environment and how to prevent that. They educate adults too and organise beach and river clean-ups with locals. They have been doing this amazing work for months and pay for most of it out of their own pockets. All they would like from you is to give their facebook page a like, share it or follow them on Instagram. They hope more followers might lead to possibilities for sponsorship.

Ideally we would keep their projects afloat by making them go viral ;) .

Every like and follower counts. www.facebook.com...

PS: Have a look on their page it is so awesome to read about their amazing and inspiring work!

Wild weather in the Waikato

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Waikato really copped it over the weekend, with wild weather leaving a hefty clean-up bill that may run into the millions.

While things are looking calmer in the days ahead, there are still plenty of slips and flooded roads across the district — so if you’re heading out, take it easy and stay alert.

We want to know: How did you and your whānau get on over the weekend?

Want to see what recovery will look like from here? The Waikato Times has the latest.
