Help fight plastic pollution with a simple like
Kia ora fellow nature lovers,
Navigating Nature educates and collaborates with locals on plastic waste in Indonesia and they need your likes to continue.

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!
Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?
All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.
But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.
Are you a Te Huia fan? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
60% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
Wild weather in the Waikato
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.
