Save Mount Taranaki
This petition has been set up for all people to ultimately protect Mount Taranaki.
The biggest challenge we currently have in front of us, is the Resource Concent that has been permitted to TAG Oil to drill 220 meters from the Egmont National Park and Mount Taranaki. Tag Oil have indicated that they will begin roading work before christmas and will notify all stakeholders 20 days before drilling.
Tag Oil will be Exploration Drilling to the depth of 4000 metres and one well extending to 5000 metres and up to 7 more wells within a 106.540 sq km area for 30 years....if they commit. This is totally UNACCEPTABLE!!!
The main purpose for this petition is to lobby as many avenues as possible to STOP the drilling activities that could... eventually take place at the beloved feet of our tuupuna maunga. Please sign and share with as many networks as possible.
“Ue te Tapu toi matakana ka tengaengae i te poho o Taranaki matua te tapu”
my watchful eyes consumed by the chest that is Taranaki, the sacred father

SeaLink continued services to Port Fitzroy, Great Barrier Island
The residents of Port Fitzroy and the surrounding areas of north Great Barrier Island have been formally informed by the North Barrier Residents and Ratepayers Association that after Easter 2020 SeaLink will no longer bring freight or passengers to the Port Fitzroy Wharf. If SeaLink discontinues passenger and freight services to Port Fitzroy and makes Tryphena the only stop on Great Barrier Island, our northern Barrier communities will suffer both personally and financially. In fact, it has th

Let butchers open during the lockdown
Many people including myself buy their meat at independent butchers rather than the supermarket. Now the butchers have been told they have to close as they are 'non-essential'. We, the signers of this petition, disagree. It is unfair and makes no sense. A dairy and a greengrocer can open but a butcher next door cannot. Supermarkets shouldn't be given a monopoly on the sale of meat. See also: Coronavirus: Piles of meat to be given away, thrown out after butchers told they're not an 'essential bu

Bring Missy Elliot to Friday Jams Live NZ 2020
It's worth a shot so I'll give it a go. With three successful Friday Jams Live concerts so far, every year I hope this Queen comes but nothing so far. I've been a diehard fan since she started, would love to see her grace our New Zealand stage to be the final showstopper for the evening at Friday Jams Live 2020. So share, sign, everything and hopefully someone who knows her will see this and let her know 😉🤣 Dreams are free 👌🏽

Petition to Ban Single-use Plastic Straws at McDonald’s
"Plastic straws and other single-use plastics are a non-essential part of our life. Yet, they cause so much damage to the environment," Get Green Now states. "The degrading of plastic could release chemicals that are toxic to wildlife and the environment." Plastic straws are polluting the environment and is having a very negative effect on marine life. Turtles have been found with plastic straws stuck in their nose. In a country of 4 million people, New Zealanders use 540 million plastic straws

Shut down Mclaren Circus, South Africa
Mclaren circus uses animals such as lions, snakes, tigers, camels and many more. These animals should not be used as entertainment and these animals deserve to have a better life and be free from that horrible business. The animals deserve to be respected and to be free to live in the wild instead of cages for peoples entertainment. THIS NEEDS TO STOP.
