Activity 2: The Black Drain [4 points]

1.Wairua -  (Northland)
2.Kaipatiki (Auckland)
3.Tarawera (Bay of Plenty)

I was asked to find to other polluted rivers in New Zealand. What to do to help these rivers stay clean at all times is to, After your eating put rubbish in the bins, Containers go into the recycle bin,plastic bags in the red bin,Cans go into recycle bin. If we walk past rubbish we pick it because the more we leave it there the more sea animals are to suffercate with all the dump people has done to the rivers. Rivers are for people to and explore things from there. This really helps people learn where and when its time to put there rubbish.

  1. Hi Kaitlyn!

    You have done a great job at sharing about the different polluted rivers, I learnt a lot from this post!
    I like how you have clearly listed the rivers and labelled their location beside them, this makes the information really clear to follow and understand.
    I also like that you have thought of some tips and tricks for keeping the rivers clean - you are right we do need to be mindful of putting away our rubbish!
    Did you see any information in your search about what is already being done to clean up these rivers? Are there groups doing mass clean-ups or local councils putting new rules in place?

    I used to like riding my bike down to the local river with my brother and dog in the summertime - we would spend the whole afternoon swimming and getting into mischief!
    Do you spend lots of time at your local river swimming during the summer?
    Would be a shame to find out it is polluted aye!


    Great work Kaitlyn!

    Nga mihi,
    Ellee :)
