Saving Mature Trees w/ Mark Lockhart

Mark Lockhart, a Landscape Architect and board member of the Tree Council, recently launched a petition to save a century-old pōhutukawa tree in Mount Eden.

Lockhart says the mature tree is at risk of being felled due to the Auckland Council leaving it off the protected Tree Schedule. The Environment Court has now granted an Interim Enforcement Order. 

Lockhart, who is also involved with Mana Rakau, who rose from the Canal Road, Avondale protest, believes that some form of tree protection should be reinstated to protect what is left of our urban ngahere in Tamaki Makaurau.

Greenwashing the 2020 Tokyo Olympic and Paralymic Games w/ Dr Binoy Kampmark: July 27, 2021

With the Covid-19 pandemic continuing to pose a significant health risk to people right across the world, the opening of the 2020 Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games has been controversial. However, another controversial issue that goes hand in hand with the Games every year is greenwashing. 

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has made strong commitments to ensuring the Games are working towards a carbon neutral (or even carbon positive) goal using their Sustainability Strategy, which was issued in 2017. But Dr Binoy Kampmark, a senior lecturer in the school of Global Urban Studies at RMIT University in Melbourne, Australia, says that the greenness of the Games is an act of theatre.

News and Editorial Director Jemima Huston talks to Dr Kampmark about this issue of greenwashing the Olympics, how green the 2020 Games truly are and what it would take to make this major sporting event a leader in sustainablity.

Sam Clark spoke to Wendy John, Co-founder and project manager of Nga Ringa o Te Auaunga/Friends of Oakley Creek about a new restoration project that focuses on removing harmful weeds. Wendy John says Te Auaunga is relatively healthy for an urban creek, but there’s still lots of work to be done. She says Te Auaunga is a ‘combined sewer/stormwater catchment’ – which means wastewater flows into the creek when there’s heavy rain and storms.

The restoration sessions are every Tuesday 9:30am-12pm. https://www.facebook.com/OakleyCreek
