Meeting on 26-4-06

Next meeting is on the 26th april. Potluck for starters and discussion and planning as desert. All the usual suspects have received their invites already. We still need people willing to be active in KASM to help with stands, spreading the message, and practical and creative people to help paint/print and design plackards and road signs. If you want to be involved sent us your name, telephonenumber and e-mail(if you have it) we will get in touch with you asap. (This is for the Raglan chapter, for the Taranaki chapter: get in touch with the local members, I'm sure they too can do with help)

New links

Today we have added a series of new links to the site. Check out the scientific and research links and have a scroll trough our links. We are actively searching for background information on Bonaparte diamond mining nl.

Their website states that their primary focus is to establish a seabed diamond mining company in the waters around the north of Australie but the news is that they are also interested in the seabeds around New Zealand.

Our new blog

 

 

Next to our website, KASM has decided to start a blog. We hope that all of you interested in and worried about the developments around seabed mining in the New Zealand waters will visit often and take part in the discussion and the information gathering necessary to fight the mining with sound arguments  and that with this blog we add to the public debate.

Note that this blog is dedicated to the struggle against  non-essential seabed mining. We appreciate that there are a huge number of ecological and possibly related subjects floating about in cyberspace. We have choosen to dedicate this site solely to the subject of seabed mining. We would appreciate it if you did the same. also we would like to point out that this is a moderated site. In order to be permitted to comment you will need to leave your name and e-mail and you will need to be a subscriber to wordpress.com. This is free and will allow you to start your own blog if you so choose. 

Happy blogging
