The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Local reality and the climate change adaptation dilemma: Beyond technical fixes and ‘business as usual’ Dissertation presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Resource and Environmental Planning at Massey University, Manawatu, New Zealand. Paul Philipp Schneider 2014 I dedicate this dissertation to my daughter Lucia. ii And God blessed them, and God said unto them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth”. —Genesis 1:28 New Zealand begins with the sea and ends with the sea. Understand this and you begin to comprehend New Zealand and the New Zealander. The thundering surf is our frontier. And our only frontier guards, gulls and migratory birds. With justice, then, the Polynesian voyagers called the land Tiritiri o te Moana – the gift of the sea. —Brian Brake and Maurice Shadbolt, New Zealand: Gift of the Sea iii ABSTRACT Climatic changes are being recorded and experienced and coastal communities are already adversely affected with impacts projected to intensify many times over in coming decades. Adaptation is embryonic at best and needs to take place in the face of already diverse and contested interests presenting coastal communities with a dilemma: Well-intentioned approaches dressed in the rhetoric of adaptation (as legislative and guidance imperatives, and case law) are compounding existing problems by fostering unsustainable and maladaptative development.

  • TCDC Community Study Report Thames 11-6-10
    TCDC Heritage Review Project Coromandel Peninsula Community Board Heritage Study - Thames - Dr Ann McEwan Heritage Consultancy Services Hamilton 11 June 2010 Executive Summary This study is intended to assist the Thames-Coromandel District Council in its forthcoming review of the District Plan. Historic heritage recommendations specific to the Thames Community Board area are provided here for consideration by the Council and discussion by local iwi and other members of the community. This report should be read in conjunction with the Coromandel Peninsula Thematic History and Consultant’s Summary Recommendation Report (2010), also prepared by Heritage Consultancy Services. In them a thematic approach has been taken to compiling historical information in a format that is best suited to identifying and interpreting historic heritage resources in the district. The principal recommendation made within this report is that the historic heritage resources of Thames and surrounding areas should be protected, actively managed and interpreted by the council on behalf of the community. Whilst scheduling of some historic buildings, sites and places on the District Plan is desirable, heritage values can also be conserved on council reserves and the DoC estate. The history of the locality may also be recorded and disseminated by the Thames Library, in partnership with The Treasury and The Coromandel Heritage Trust. Historic heritage resources in the area can be enhanced or undermined by new development, whether undertaken by the council or private landowners. It is therefore desirable that the history of the area is promoted within council and throughout the wider community in order that the future of local area settlements and their environs is based on an understanding of the past.

  • Whenuakite Kiwi Care Operational Programme
    10 July 2020 Whenuakite Kiwi Care Operational Programme Doc # 16808277 Page 1 SECTION ONE: Project Information 1. Project summary Project title Whenuakite Kiwi Care Operational Programme Name of applicant/community group Whenuakiwi Trust t/a Whenuakite Kiwi Care Group Contact person(s) 1 - S7(2)(a) LGOIM... 1 - S7(2)(a) LGOIMA 1987 1 1 -- S7(2)(a) LGOIM... LGOIMA 1987 Legal entity status Charitable Trust CC10895 Short project description Whenuakiwi Trust has been operating since 2001 on 2570ha of private land and 984ha of Public Conservation Land (PCL). Our mission statement from 2000 states: “To promote the welfare of Kiwi and their habitat in the Whenuakite and surrounding area.” We achieve this with a trap network consisting of 553 traps spread over about 110km of trapline. We target all introduced species with a focus on mustelids and a bi- kill of rats, hedgehogs and feral cats. Our initial aim was to protect kiwi. But our approach and dedication to conservation has led to a thriving habitat allowing other indigenous species to flourish. In partnership with Iwi, Department of Conservation (DOC) and Waikato Regional Council (WRC) we utilise aerial 1080. We chose early on not to handle our kiwi. We employ a contractor to co-ordinate volunteers trapping 141 traps; he also services 212 (141 private land, 68 PCL) traps for WKCG . Many of our private landowners fund their own traps (200) and maintain their own lines. Our long- term goal is to forever ensure predator numbers are kept as low as possible by utilising best practice methods. Our results show that our methods are working as we have attained a growth in kiwi numbers consistently for every survey that has been done.
