SUMMARY:Talk to an Architect and make your project climate friendly
DESCRIPTION:Taking on a new home build or renovation project is a significant journey to embark on – especially when you aspire to make it environmentally friendly! From selecting the ideal site and navigating the “greenwashing” of materials to determining the appropriate size and budget\, having guidance from an expert can make all the difference. \nTo help you plan your climate-friendly build or renovation\, we are bringing in some local experts: Join us at the Climate Action Festival for a free consultation with registered architects Magdalena and Mathew from Fineline Architecture. No matter where you are in your project journey and its scale\, whether it’s a new build or renovation project\, they look forward to answering your questions about: \n\nsite selection\ndesign and budget\,\nrenovation versus new build\,\nenergy efficiency as well as\ngenuine green choices\, and low-toxicity materials.\n\nWith over 20 years of experience in all aspects of architecture\, from residential to commercial to hospitality\, Magdalena and Mathew have a strong focus and commitment to creating inspiring and innovative spaces using sustainable resources that don’t cost the planet. They recently won a first prize international award for Strawlines\, their low-carbon small homes design for Aotearoa. You can find out more about them on their website: finelinearchitecture.co.nz \nDate: Monday 27 to Friday 31 May \nTime: 10am-12pm (daily) \nLocation: Online or Office (Bridge Street Studios\, 123c Bridge Street\, Whakatū Nelson) \nBook a time HERE. Let’s chat over tea and turn your ideas into reality. \nLearn more about how a good design can help regenerate our planet here: Buildings I Project Regeneration and Carbon Architecture I Project Regeneration \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

SUMMARY:Webinar - Workplace Solutions To The Climate Challenge
DESCRIPTION:Join us for this webinar\, where Des Casey will share insights from his new book “Nature’s Future Our Future“. \nPeople from a broad variety of occupations\,  including teaching\, healthcare\, office work and sports\, can impact our natural environment through their day-to-day work. \n“Nature faces a crossroads. What will we\, ourselves a part of nature\, do? Opportunities still exist to activate and mobilise qualities of creativity\, generosity\, courage and wisdom. Hope and change reside in these attributes of the human spirit. \n\n\n\n\nSeveral central premises are maintained throughout the book. They include a bringing together of our occupational lives – what we do at work – and nature’s needs. Closing this gap will be pivotal for nature’s future and for our own. Political\, economic and commercial life is critiqued; society’s belief systems and priorities are challenged. A very different consciousness of what drives environmental deterioration is paramount. So too is strong and focused leadership. Practical essays review a selection of specific occupations as examples of the book’s central themes“. \nPart of the discussion will allow us to reflect on the following points: \n\nEDUCATION is not to be confused with knowing. The environmental crisis can be understood as being a disorder in the minds of the dominant species – not simply a problem ‘out there’. Instead of nature being viewed as outside the fields of education\, it must become the initial stage and lectern for all learning\nWhat if ACCOUNTANCY took into account that nature too has an economy – of gains and losses\, ledgers\, limits and aspirations? What if accountancy was not organised and fixed around neo-liberal economics\, but around the systems and ecological realities of nature?\nMight the TRADES and UNIONS become forces exposing the criminality that drives environmental decline as they strive to do with the widening margins between rich and poor.\nRegenerative FARMING is being talked about and sometimes adopted in some quarters\, but many more resist. If ever there is an occupation that might lead in the care of land\, water and climate it is farmers. They walk the land. Time to break from a historical tendency to presume privilege. Support\, yes; exemption\, no.\nEnvironmentally\, the LEGAL PROFESSION is split down the middle – those who defend the enironment and those who defend policy and economics set on destroying it. How will the profession unify and respond if/when climate\, extinctions\, poisoning of waterways and oceans head closer to collapse?.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease register following this link here.

SUMMARY:Takeaways from the Environmental Defence Society Conference
DESCRIPTION:Nature and Climate Group convener Fiona Ede will present a Nelson-Tasman perspective of this year’s high-profile EDS Conference\, held in Christchurch in June. \n\n\n\nThe recent Environmental Defence Society conference\, “The Future is Now” brought together resource managers\, conservationists\, politicians\, rangitahi\, iwi\, researchers\, policy makers and others\, to address the twin crises of climate change and biodiversity loss. Sessions focused on freshwater reforms and changes in biodiversity management\,  renewable energy\, agriculture\, fisheries\, marine ecosystems\, conservation and nature-based solutions.\n\nPresenters ranged from deep-sea trawling practitioners to iwi using mātauranga Māori to manage their land\, and the Ministers of Conservation\, Climate Change and Regional Development.\n\nSolutions focused on place-based approaches that are small-scale in nature\, rather than large-scale\, systemic change/programmes\, which are hampered by lack of resources and lack of data to drive change.\n\n\n\n\nTo take part in the feedback on this Conference\, join this zoom link at 12.30pm on Friday: Takeaways from the EDS Conference

SUMMARY:Insights from Psychology for Climate Change Communications
DESCRIPTION:International Climate and Resilience webinar series \nSpeaker: Wändi Bruine de Bruin\, University of Southern California \nAbstract: Climate change poses a serious threat to people around the world. Organizations such as the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) are tasked with communicating about climate change with international audiences of policy makers and members of the general public. These communications can be complex and\, in the words of one of our research participants\, “talk over people’s heads.” In this presentation\, I will discuss my ongoing work with various organizations on understanding and informing public perceptions of climate change\, and making climate change communications more accessible. \nBio: Wändi Bruine de Bruin is Provost Professor of Public Policy\, Psychology\, and Behavioral Science at the University of Southern California (USC)\, where she serves as the director of the USC Schaeffer Behavioral Science & Policy initiative. Her research aims to understand and inform how people make decisions about their personal health\, their carbon footprint\, and their household finances. She has published more than 150 peer-reviewed publications on these topics. She is an editorial board member for the Journal of Experimental Psychology: Applied\, Perspectives on Psychological Science\, the Journal of Behavioral Decision Making\, Decision\, Medical Decision Making\, the Journal of Risk Research\, and Psychology & Aging. She previously served on expert panels for the National Academy of Sciences on Communicating Science Effectively and for the Council of the Canadian Academies on Health Product Risk Communication. \nJoin on Zoom using this link: Webinar
