The Herald reports that “annual immigration to the end of June reached the highest level in two years, adding to hopes of recovery from recession.” Vincent puts a positive spin on the rising numbers of people returning home to New Zealand or arriving for the first time and he tells us about a new site called Celsias that is all about spreading the word about climate change and green business.
Vincent reports on the poor handling by Cadbury of it’s changes to packaging and it’s recipe for the king size range of products.

Vincent tells us about Oxfam Trailwalker, an annual fundraising event organised and promoted by Oxfam New Zealand. Funds raised from the event will support Oxfam New Zealand’s humanitarian, development and advocacy work to lift some of the world’s poorest people out of poverty. Oxfam Trailwalker challenges teams of four to walk or run 100kms through some of central North Island’s most spectacular terrain in 36 hours. Vincent Heeringa is the editorial director at Idealog.

Vincent announces the Intrepid Volunteers Challenge and social networking site, so charities and volunteers like you can connect and bring change. The big idea is simply to reward our unsung heroes and make it easier for new volunteers to find a project that suits them. In terms of average hours of voluntary work per week New Zealand is a global leader but we want to help make New Zealand the world’s leading nation of volunteers per capita. This will help save hundreds of eco-systems and improve thousands of lives.
