Forest & Bird talk and walk "Coastal Dunes and the Coast care movement"

Wednesday 8th–Sunday 12th February 2012

On Wednesday evening at 7.30pm at Tahunanui school David Sissons will share what he has learned about the restoration of the natural character and functions of our coastal dunes.

Enormous damage has been done to our dunelands over the past 150 years and now we face the growing pressure of sea level rise.

Yet, over recent years, impressive community action around New Zealand has been 'turning the tide'. The Coast Care Movement is one of our most exciting stories of communities restoring nature, right where we live.

On the following Sunday 12 February – Walk with David Sissons to explore the coastal dynamics of the ever-changing Tahuna Beach and see the local success of the Coast Care Movement.
Meet this day no later than 9:45am at the Beach Cafe, Tahunanui.
