The Department of Conservation has recently announced that 90 new Kākāpō chicks have been hatched in the last breeding season bringing the total number of Kākāpō to a record of 325, a major achievement considering the species is critically endangered and only had 51 individuals three decades ago. 

This week for Green World, producer Liam spoke with Kaiāwhina Taonga ranger Neve Duxfield, about what the Kākāpō recovery programme looks like day-to-day and what this significant milestone means for Kākāpō. 

This week for Dear Science, we chat with our expert, Dr Cushla McGoverin, about Narwhals, exercising and sleep, and El Niño.

Kia ora koutou,

Last week, the reserve bank moved to raise the OCR by another 25 base points, to 2.75 percent. Naturally, this has spawned conversation about the state of the economy. 

Last week also saw the parliamentary justice committee release a report on the changes to move in orders, prompting further changes to the bill including excluding 14-17 year olds

We had a bonus Stage Direction this week, thanks to Basement Theatre. Vincent Andrew-Scammell came in and talked to us about his one-man show, ‘Oceania 11’. AAAAnnd what a doozy it sounds like. The lad even did all the sound effects himself.

Climate change has been the subject of renewed debate in New Zealand’s school curriculum, raising a bigger question than whether the words themselves appear in the curriculum at all: what should young people actually be taught about living in a warming world?

That includes not only the science, but questions around adaptation, political action, climate justice, and how teachers can be realistic about the future without increasing fear or hopelessness.

Producer Pranuja spoke to University of Auckland Professor John Morgan about what meaningful climate education should look like, and whether schools are preparing students for the world they are likely to inherit.
