    Be the Change Bus Tour for Climate Change

    Check out the Be the Change campaign and their biodiesel bus tour! Run by Forest and Bird, Oxfam and Greenpeace


    Be The Change encourages New Zealanders to minimise their impact on the
    climate and demonstrate to our political leaders that New Zealanders are
    willing to support swift and effective action to tackle climate change.
    The bus is touring around the country as part of the Be The Change campaign, meeting local climate heros and inspiring kiwis to take personal action on climate change.
