SUMMARY:3rd Anniversary of Nelson's First Miyawaki Microforest
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate and learn about Nelson’s first Miyawaki Microforest on its 3rd birthday. \nAfter three years\, a microforest should be left alone to grow by itself\, according to Akira Miyawaki. Colin Davis\, co-initiator of this project\, will take participants for a walk around the forest presenting its unique use of biochar and sharing the purpose\, origin\, and development of the project. This is a family-friendly event with games\, tea\, snacks\, and cake to celebrate. The microforest is located at: 5 Francois Way\, Enner Glynn\, Nelson 7011. \nA microforest is a self-contained eco-world\, encouraging bio-diversity\, drawing CO2 from the atmosphere\, and storing carbon – especially with the use of biochar. They are small and easy to grow\, once you have a little space. They are an ideal community project and also are educational for upper primary and secondary schools. \nPlease register here to participate so we know how many people to expect and can inform you of any changes to the event details. \nLearn more about the “Afforestation benefits” to regenerate our planet here: Afforestation | Project Regeneration \nLearn more about the “Biochar benefits” to regenerate our planet here: Biochar | Project Regeneration \nLearn more about Nelson Miyawaki project here: in 2021 and in 2022. \n\nThis event is part of Climate Action Festival.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR - Streets for people or roads for cars? How streets and community wellbeing interact.
DESCRIPTION:Join Simon Kingham\, Professor of Geography at the University of Canterbury and Chief Science Advisor to the Ministry of Transport\, for this lunchtime webinar about how streets and community wellbeing interact. \nStreets are usually seen as places for motor vehicles\, but what happens if we rethink their role as places that can strengthen our communities and enhance wellbeing? What happens when we change their form and function through things\, such as changing traffic volumes and speeds\, restricting traffic\, making walking and cycling more attractive\, and introducing street furniture and places for social interaction? This presentation will examine some of these types of changes that have been seen in Ōtautahi Christchurch. \nThis event is co-hosted with the Nelson Sustainable Transport Trust: NELSUST. Register for the Zoom invite by following this link: REGISTRATION \n\nThis event is part of Climate Action Festival. See the full program here.

SUMMARY:Sustainable Farm Tour
DESCRIPTION:A tour of farms in Golden Bay that showcase some of the great initiatives that are happening to make farms more sustainable. See regenerative approaches in action including different ways to nurture soil health\, mixed sward approaches\, use of trees and riparian plantings\, and mixed animal farming. \nFarmers are the potential super-heros of climate change. Regenerative farming practices nurtures a healthy soil microbiome. This sequesters significantly more carbon\, and reduces the amount of methane (another greenhouse gas) produced by cows. The potential impact of this is significant. There are many examples of good farm stewardship here in the Bay – we will be visiting 3 good examples that showcase a range of approaches. \nMeet at the Takaka I site and join our bus tour. Commentary and Q&A will be provided throughout the tour by sustainable land management expert Sol Morgan. We will stop for lunch at the Sustainable Living Centre where an optional $15 organic lunch will be available for purchase. \nMeet at the Takaka I site and join our bus tour. More information and registration (limited places) here. Note that the event is now sold out\, but there is the possibility of registering on a waiting list. People on this list will be contacted directly in the event that capacity is increased. \nWe want to encourage carpooling\, so please use this link if you want to share your care or if you need a ride. \nLearn more on how Regenerative Agriculture can help to regenerate our planet here: Regenerative Agriculture I Project Regeneration. \n\nThis event is part of Climate Action Festival.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR - The impact of urban form on GHG emissions - and what that means for Nelson Tasman
DESCRIPTION:This Webinar\, led by Timo Neubauer\, from NelsonTasman2050\, will give a brief overview of international research that proves the per-capita life-cycle emissions of low-density urban sprawl are up to 2.4 times higher than those of denser mixed-use urban form. \nHe will also look into our Councils’ current carbon accounting practices and how their planning activities are currently disconnected from their carbon targets and finish with some recommendations for a better way forward. \nTimo Neubauer is a Tasman-based urban designer and small business owner. His array of experience includes projects in Europe\, the UK\, Abu Dhabi as well as the Urban Design Framework for Auckland’s City Rail Link\, potentially New Zealand’s largest investment in public transport in the last five decades. \nTo register on Zoom\, follow this link: REGISTRATION \n\nThis event is part of Climate Action Festival.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR - Plant Based Nutrition - improve both the quality of your nutrition and your impact on the planet
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to eat better from a Registered Nutritionist whilst also reducing your food footprint. We give you practical and actionable advice that you can start doing immediately\, rather than just making a vague commitment to ‘eat less meat’. \nYou will create your own action plan starting with your easy wins\, then slowly transitioning into more plant based swaps to make. You will also learn how proper nutrition works\, and how to get enough protein and essential nutrients in. \n  \nNTS Nutrition is an online nutrition clinic based in Whakatu. We offer highly individualised nutrition and exercise coaching. Nutritionist for Tasman Mako and Crusaders Academy. \nReducing our meat and dairy consumption\, which has a disproportionate impact on the climate compared to eating plants\, is an important step to take to lower our emissions. \nEvent is free\, but registration on Zoom is required here. \n\nThis event is part of Climate Action Festival. See the full program here. \n \n
