Can you help push us over $12,000? Only a few more days left in our annual fundraising campaign and we are still far from our goal.

We are not institutionally funded. We rely entirely on supporters and do good work with a very small budget!!

From heatwaves to intense storms, Michelle explains how the continent's 'memory' of extreme events means future impacts are likely to be amplified by past damage.

As it's breeding time for giant petrels on Bird Island, meet the oldest female giant petrel on the island ⬇️

She hatched there in 1989, making her an impressive 36 years old.

This season, she decided to build her nest next to the path, where the team greet her every day as they go past 🪶

For years we've gotten pushy, rude & bullying emails from those who want to insert themselves into WiAA leadership or demand partnerships & when we don't agree, they lash out. ENOUGH! STOP. This approach won't create cooperation. Just burn bridges. We say no for many reasons. No ≠ never
