Welcome to the November edition of the Environmental Practitioner
The Environmental Practitioner is EIANZ's quarterly newsletter. You can find articles from the Environmental Practitioner in the news section of our website. In the past, the Environmental Practitioner was distributed as a PDF document. Historical issues in PDF format are still available on our website for download.
We have received an amazing wave of support for the development of the new Environmental Practitioner format and I would like to thank all those who came forward with ideas and articles.
In this issue, we focus on the EIANZ Conference and present the new Board members. For the next issue, I am keen to feature member snapshots and hear how you help create a sustainable environment within your business or at home. If you have an article or would just like to share few words email me at communications-editor@eianz.org. The closing date for the February newsletter is 31 January 2016.
