Hardworking nature lovers from across Aotearoa will receive a special acknowledgement for their conservation efforts in a new Forest & Bird project launching today, as part of its centennial celebrations.

A coalition of over 30 organisations from across Aotearoa has come together to launch a 10-point plan called “Climate Shift”.

The Government has failed to support a Bill which would have ended new mines on conservation land.

Forest & Bird has applied to the High Court today for a judicial review of recent changes made to the policy and regulations guiding the protection and management of wetlands in Aotearoa.
