Environment 2010 Strategy Nine serious environmental issues need to be dealt with if New Zealand is to justify its claim to be a "clean green" country. These issues and the goals the Government wants to achieve, are outlined in the Environment 2010 Strategy released in October 1994. New Zealand's Highest Priority Environmental Issues 1. Protecting Indigenous Habitats and Biological Diversity Issues and Examples 90 percent of our wetlands have been drained or degraded; lowland forest areas have been reduced to 15 percent of their pre-Maori extent; only 10 percent of the tall tussock grassland that existed in 1840 still remains. Half of our endemic bird species have become extinct since people first came to New Zealand. About 500 species of animals and plants are now threatened. Goal To protect indigenous habitats and to maintain biological diversity, by protecting representative examples of all indigenous ecosystems and by maintaining and enhancing the net total area of New Zealand's remaining indigenous forests and enhancing the quality of other remaining indigenous vegetation. 2. Managing Pests, Weeds and Diseases

Wind Energy Manual Iowa Energy Center Aesthetics and Visibility The visibility of a particular wind system will depend on many factors, including tower height, proximity to neighbors and roadways, local terrain, and tree coverage. Some people may object to a wind turbine being in their field of view, and this could be an issue when applying for a zoning permit. Therefore it may be worthwhile to investigate your neighbors' concerns before investing in a wind turbine. In most areas of the state, wind turbines are an uncommon sight, so it is natural to expect some reservations about their introduction. Objections are more likely to occur in populated and tourist areas. Opposition is least likely to surface in rural settings. Noise Factors The most characteristic sounds of a wind turbine are the "swish...swish...swish" of its turning blades and the whirring of the generator. Improved designs have made wind turbines much quieter over the last decade. Within several hundred feet of a machine, these sounds may be distinguishable from the background noise of local traffic or the wind blowing through the trees, but they usually are not disruptive or objectionable. The impact on any particular neighbor will depend on how close they live, whether they are upwind or downwind, and the level of other noise sources such as traffic.

This program empowers people with information on energy and the environment, and encourages businesses and consumers to lead the way to a cleaner, greener, healthier environment. Companies that reduce or offset their emissions are eligible to receive the Certified Cleaner and Greener sm Seal . This seal allows consumers to identify environmentally-responsible companies that are working to reduce the pollution that contributes to climate change, smog, and acid rain. The Cleaner and Greener sm Principles for Pollution Reduction Programs propose a new approach to environmental regulation that rewards emission reductions delivered by energy efficiency, renewable energy, and sequestration projects. Visit www.cleanerandgreener.org to find out more about the Cleaner and Greener sm Program. Mission of Leonardo Academy Leonardo Academy Inc. is a nonprofit organization dedicated to addressing issues affecting people and the environment on an interdisciplinary basis. Leonardo Academy's mission includes addressing environmental issues, energy issues, and sustainability.

Three decades ago, the United States was losing almost 500,000 acres of wetlands each year. Americans understood that couldn't be sustained, and so the nation began to take action. Every level of government, joined by landowners and conservationists, worked hard to turn the situation around. In other words, it took a collaborative effort of people who cared about the environment.
