Te Ipukarea Society, Caring for our Cook Islands Environment with Kelvin Passfield
Apr 22, 2023 Episode 118
Haydn Adams & Chantal Napa

Kelvin shares with us an insight overview of Te Ipukarea Society, an environmental organization in the Cook Islands formed to help look after our Ipukarea, ‘our heritage’. Their philosophy is that we do not own our land and marine resources but borrow them from our future generations, and need to leave them in good condition. 

We chat about free UV treated refill water stations placed around Rarotonga for the public to have access to clean drinking water. We also spoke about the Biodiversity, Waste Management, Climate Change, Eco Sustainable Development and Youth training projects that Te Ipukarea is actively involved and raising awareness in. 


Kia Orana, May you live long
Aere Ra, Farewell
Kia Manuia, Good Luck and Good Health
