Save Happy Valley Campaign
Happy Valley is a beautiful area of native bush, fragile wetlands and a thriving ecosystem of native birds and animals located on the West Coast of New Zealand, just North East of Westport. It is home to many threatened species including the Great Spotted Kiwi and the large native Patrickensis land snail.... and it is under attack from state-owned enterprise Solid Energy!
Solid Energy has been pushing very aggressively to destroy Happy Valley with an open-cast coal mine and have just recently cleared the neccessary legal hurdles.
Mission Statement:
"To build a sanctuary in the bosom of nature for peaceful free-spirited people to express themselves creatively and to share in the power of mutual cooperation."

This book is fantastic. I finished this story of a little cherokee boy just recently and reading this book should be compulsory.

Reading this book gave me lot of ideas about travelling. This is a story of egyptian doctor traveling through Syria, Crete, Babylon etc. at the time of Pharaohs.

An Inconvenient TruthClimate change is happening. It's shocking, alarming and urgent. It is reality. If we all do a little bit, if we all change a bit of our everyday habit of using cars and electric machines we can make a change. Climate change. A move to save our planet. It is our choice what we leave for our children here. So what do you want for your children?
The Age of Stupid
Why didn't we stop climate change while we had the chance?
That could be the question of our kids if we don't do anything...
there is more to come here...
