Watch the film "Tomorrow"
Please join us to watch the film “Tomorrow” (“Demain”)
Date: Tuesday 12 February, at 7.30 pm.
Venue: Alicetown Community Centre, 38 Victoria Street, Alicetown, Lower Hutt.
We will show and talk about this documentary in two one-hour segments, over two consecutive Tuesdays (12 and 19 February)
This documentary shows beautiful solutions adopted by communities across a number of countries to some of the problems of industrial agriculture, fossil fuel consumption, and social and environmental degradation which have created our current climate emergency, and are rapidly putting the health and wellbeing of ourselves and all other species at risk.
The two halves of the documentary do not depend on each other – they just show different solutions to different parts of the problem. So, if you can only make one of the two evenings, you won’t be missing key arguments or threads, just some of the wonderful solutions shown.
You can see the official trailer for the documentary at www.youtube.com....
And you can indicate your interest or attendance on our Facebook page www.facebook.com...
Come along watch the film, share the group discussion and have a cup of tea and a biscuit.
Any questions please phone Juanita McKenzie on 021422542.

Begonia house to be demolished at botanic gardens
It's outrageous that the Wellington City Council are going to demolish the Begonia house at the Botanic gardens. This is an asset. One would have thought the green faction of the council would have supported fixing it. It's strange no one has questioned the price required to fix it. Cycle ways more important than begonia house i think not
