A For The Love of Bees and 95bFM collaborative project.
Regenerative Conversations seeks to be a living archive of current and past sustainability issues, future solutions and the voices leading and supporting a path towards a more sustainable Aotearoa..
Monthly, we will look into the core sustainability issues, seek to find thought leaders, locally affected peoples [manawhenua and tauiwi alike], alternative vision holders and those just doing the mahi in their field to help solve Aotearoa's sustainability issues.
We will inquire into our country's innovations, our collaboration and what it means to restore wellbeing, wairua or hauora, to our ecologies.
We will look into 12 different areas over the course of the series, so keep an eye out to find out more.
A month on from the decision made by Auckland Council as to harmonise the budgets of local wards for vegetation management, we reconvene to discuss what happens now.
We were once again joined by;

Charles Merfield - Non-chemical weed management scientist with a specialism in thermal weeding
Jodie Bruning - Researcher/writer; founder RITE-demands.org, trustee of Physicians and Scientists for Global Responsibility.
Sarah Smuts-Kennedy - For the Love of Bees vision holder and citizen on the weed advisory group Auckland Council
Jamey Holloway - Team Member and collaborator with For The Love of Bees.
We started by asking Hana Blackmore to unpack the final decision made by Auckland Council.
