Change is certainly a constant state of being for us here at FuturEcology, but I like to work on the principles from the book by Dr Spencer Johnson, Who Moved My Cheese. It was published back in 1998 and looks at the 4 keys ways we can react to change.

That feeling of change is well and truly in the air at the moment, especially with daylight saving ending last week. We had our first fire, which always marks the change of season for us. I am loving the magnificent autumn colour as well.
FuturEcology & EmGuard ™ March 2024 update
The days are very slowly getting a little chillier and a little shorter, always good news for those of us in the restoration industry prepping for the planting season. The heavy rain at the beginning of the week was a very welcome sight, despite the blocked gutters.

Welcome back for 2024! And what a good one it is shaping up to be.
We hope you all had a restive break over the festive season and enjoyed time with family and friends.
We have hit the ground running and are excited that this year we will celebrate FuturEcology’s 10th birthday. It is hard to believe we have been operating for a decade! We are so grateful to all our wonderful customers who we have worked with over the last ten years.

Meri Kirihimete/ Merry Christmas
And that’s it, another year has zoomed by so fast that I have barely got the decorations down from last year and am putting them up again. I’m sure everyone is feeling very much the same.
As we rush into these last few hectic days trying to get those last jobs tidied up and everything ready for the Christmas close down, it is so important to reflect and celebrate on what has been achieved this year.

I really do think that this time of year is my favourite time of year, apart from the start of the craziness leading up to that important holiday period in December!
FuturEcology & EmGuard ™ October 2023 update.
Well, what an interesting week it has been, both for New Zealand and Australian politics.
It has also been heartbreaking hearing about the evolving situation in Gaza. Our hearts go out to all those affected by the attacks.
With all of the goings on in world, we are doing what we can to stay positive in our corner and continuing with our mission to save the planet, one tree at a time.

Just like that, May has flown by and what a great month it has been. The planting season has been off to a great start, and we couldn’t ask for a better team for the job.

And just like that it is mid-autumn.
This time of year is just stunning, with the trees changing colour and crisper mornings alluding to winter just around the corner. For the conservation industry, this is an exciting time of year as we are finishing our site prep and starting to put plants in the ground.

Welcome to Autumn.
We can’t believe how quickly the days are getting shorter and are certainly enjoying that lovely crispness in the morning followed by some gorgeous days, but oh my goodness, have the wasps exploded in the last few weeks.
FuturEcology & EmGuard ™ February 2023 update.
Mid-February already and what a month it has been! Drought, flooding and cyclones are just some of the challenges. The country doesn’t seem to be catching a break. Our hearts go out to those who have been affected by these unprecedented events.
FuturEcology & EmGuard ™ January 2023 update.
Mid-January already and some nice summer weather to usher in the new year.
We hope you all had some time to relax, eat good food, enjoy good company and some time to reflect and gather strength for the coming year.

FuturEcology & EmGuard ™ September 2022 Update
What an incredible month it has been. Dunedin shivering in snow last week and Nelson suffering a river of rain three weeks ago. It certainly makes for interesting, if somewhat challenging times.
