In the news

A couple of relevant recent articles from the NZ Herald -

A report by the Hauraki Gulf Forum (established by the Hauraki Gulf Marine Park Act 2000 to promote the sustainable management of the Hauraki Gulf) into the current state of the Gulf.  The report records increasing levels of nitrogen (from rural runoff) and pollution: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10744343.

An exhibition and auction of photographs of nature by celebrities with the aim of bringing environmental issues into the public conscious and encouraging positive environmental action (the idea being similar to our mapping project - a different forum for portrayal of the environment):
