How community conservation can protect bittern/matuku-hūrepo and wetland habitats

How can we help our little blue penguins survive in this changing world?
With sleek blue feathers, a small yet solid stature and cute pink feet, the kororā (blue penguin) is a beloved part of our coastal wildlife and landscapes. Being the only penguin species naturally found around the North Island coastline, kororā are a taonga (treasure) to many coastal communities, including the likes of Kūaotunu.

Environmental Threats and Community Resistance
What should we do when the world is spinning too fast? Should we make more motorways to cut three seconds off a trip from wherever to wherever? Should we limit and undermine the Te Tiriti rights of tangata whenua? Should we shut people out of local decision-making? Should we remove protection from freshwater and mine the hell out of the Peninsula?

There are more reasons than ever to think about ethical and environmentally conscious shopping as the impacts of climate change give us pause to think about the food we buy.

Hey there, folks! Today, we’re diving into the world of hailstorms, those quirky and sometimes challenging weather events that make us wonder about Mother Nature’s creativity. So, why does it hail?
