What sustainability means

This video illustrates man's ever increasing dependence on non renewable resources. It shows, to our cost, how a lack of concern for sustainability as a guiding part of the everyday lives of everyone on the planet will ultimately have ramifications for us all.

DOC Community Engagement: Otago

Each year thousands of people from the community -- be they businesses, iwi, motivated individuals, trusts, landowners, schools -- help in conservation efforts around New Zealand. This year, as part of Conservation Week, Otago decided to recognise many of those individuals by recording their stories on film. This 8.5 minute video highlights the work of groups as diverse as the Yellow Eyed Penguin Trust, Orokonui Ecosanctuary, Air New Zealand, Ngai Tahu, Mitre 10 Mega, and many more. We hope that many more people become involved, so that DOC can achieve its vision of doubling conservation efforts in our beautiful country in the next 20 years.
