What does a Neighbor mean to you

Suzanne from Tauwhare

You know I always thought neighbors were there to help and be a friend. Well how wrong I was. I live in Eureka where we all count on our neighbours, but not when they ring the pound on your dog,and say say "We don't know who's dog it is." But they do.And they have our cell no. And say it was worring my sheep, well funny that we have sheep and he doesn't even look at them. Well if he was why didn't they shoot him. So in the pound the dog went, I am not angry about paying the $80 to get him out what I am angry about is I thought we look out for our neighbours", well Sam in Freidlander Rd . You are one neighbor I won't be looking out for.

Some Choice News!

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!
