Sorry for the delay...We've been quite busy here in the southern hemisphere. We've just arrived home from a week-long trip to the South Island's west coast, a rugged coastline covered by beautiful native bush. However, that update is to come shortly. First off, a word on NODRILLKAIKOURA.
The NZ government is proposing to open up two off-shore blocks just off the coast of Kaikoura for deep sea oil exploration and drilling. This is an incredible risk to the natural and local economy of Kaikoura. Kaikoura's marine ecosystems are incredible, I think we're all familiar with what an oil "spill" could do to it.
Please help us to protect this beautiful place! Restoring Eden has highlighted this issue on their website at
This program exists in Kaikoura because Kaikoura is a one-of-a-kind location. It is a privilege to be here, to witness a place so stunning. Why would we even consider putting such a unique place in harm's way? Please help us make our voice heard, to convince the Ministry of Economic Development to revoke these two blocks for oil exploration.
