SUMMARY:Two MYSTERY Huts
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Harry Smith\n\n\n\n\n\nI am going to talk about two little-known huts that I visited with Kevin Cole on our way back to Wellington at the end of our Christmas trip in the Canterbury High Country in 2018. The club has occasionally run Mystery Trips where the participants don’t know in advance where they are going; in that spirit\, this is going to be a Mystery Talk and I am not going to reveal the names and locations of the huts\, even during the talk! All I can say is that they are:\n  – located somewhere in the upper half of the South Island\n  – great places to go to but seldom visited\n  – easily accessible in a day on tracks\n  – in stunning locations with superb views\nCome along and see if you can figure out where they are!

SUMMARY:Forest & Bird Wellington: We “Give Nature a Voice” — OK\, so what do we actually do?
DESCRIPTION:Most people in New Zealand have heard of Forest & Bird\, but few are aware of the range of activities its members get involved with. With the largest number of members of any environmental group in New Zealand\, the members of its 45+branches undertake a wide range of conservation projects\, as well as writing submissions\, letters and emails to local authorities and using social media in an attempt to “Give Nature a Voice”. \nKen New has been a member for 40 years and for the last 10 years he’s been part of the Wellington Branch committee\, most recently as Secretary. He was also Chairperson of the Southern Environmental Association for several years. His love for the environment has taken him tramping in the UK\, most states of Australia and on several of the Great Walks of New Zealand. Ken will give an illustrated talk about the various Forest & Bird projects currently under way in the Wellington region and will be happy to answer any questions you may have about Forest & Birdand its activities\, locally or nationally.

SUMMARY:WTMC Talks: NoFly - Shaun Hendy talks about his year without flights
DESCRIPTION:Shaun Hendy will talk to the Club about what he learnt from a going a year without flights. \n“By avoiding planes for a year\, I found that I had cut my carbon dioxide emissions from travel to just over 1 tonne. This was a reduction of 95 per cent from my 2017 carbon footprint from travel. It felt good.” \nWhat happens when a leading New Zealand scientist (and frequent traveller) rules out flying for a year? From overnight buses to epic train journeys\, Shaun Hendy’s experiences speak to our desire to do something – anything – in the face of growing climate anxiety. \n#NoFly confronts the hard questions of one person’s attempt ‘to adapt’. Was this initiative merely symbolic? Did it compromise his work\, his life? And has it left him feeling more optimistic that we can\, indeed\, reach a low-emissions future? \n#NoFly Walking the Talk – info sheet 7 October 2019 copy
