The Arkles Bay pōhutukawa trees that were poisoned at the end of last year have been replaced by three new trees.

The culprits were never identified by police or council. If caught, they could have been fined between $300-600K.
Auckland Council doesn't have any specific numbers on native tree poisonings in the region, but we find ourselves reporting cases frequently. Have you had trees near your home poisoned? Let us know in the comments.

Yet it is not part of our school curriculum.
Some experts say that has to change. It is such an existential threat that not to make it a requirement to teach children about climate change is doing them a great disservice, they say.
