Description:

All around New Zealand, people are trying to make things just a little bit better for their communities. The 22 Environment Centres, or Hubs, found throughout the country aim to help with this. Claire Concannon visits the Tairāwhiti Environment Centre to learn about their three pou of waste minimisation, education, and biodiversity, and about the environmental projects they support. She also meets their close neighbours – Gizzy Kai Rescue – who are looking to balance the scales of local food waste and food scarcity.

Guests:

  • Steph Temple, Hub Coordinator, Tairāwhiti Environment Centre
  • Sam Rowland, Manager, Tairāwhiti Environment Centre
  • Lauren Beatty, Gizzy Kai Rescue
  • Dr Sarah Boyle, Wai Connections Tairāwhiti
