Here are a few tips on how to contact, meet and lobby your local representative for your council or Parliament to urge them to make the best decisions for the health of the environment, for the health and wellbeing of us all.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-why-meet-my-elected-rep-nbsp\"><strong>Why meet my elected rep?&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p>There are lots of different priorities that influence the decisions our representatives make on council or in Parliament. There are lots of people behind the scenes who are unelected such as policy makers, advisors and lobby groups. The media stories of the day can influence how they think their decisions will be seen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>But these elected representatives are people who also want to do (or be seen to be doing) the right thing. They often took on their role wanting to make some kind of positive difference. They and their office staff are looking for feedback and public input, which they can then use to justify their decisions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>Not only can they be convinced with the power of lived experiences, they are also influenced by public pressure, and want to be re-elected.<\/p>\n\n<p>An elected representative has a responsibility to represent us and our views. As citizens we also have a responsibility to engage, and together, keep them accountable to the community.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>Meeting a politician isn\u2019t a replacement for activism. It\u2019s a way to use existing levers in our democratic processes. We need to try every avenue, and a meeting could simply find out where barriers lie, that then needs other tactics to shift.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/contact-your-local-electorate-mp\/\">Contact your local MP<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-by-meeting-your-rep-you-can\"><strong>By meeting your rep you can:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Get to know each other as people, so they know you and your interests<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Find out where they stand on an issue<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Advocate for a single issue, such as ending the use of synthetic nitrogen fertiliser<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Find out what is blocking the action you seek<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Seek action or commitments, and promise actions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Committed engagement from voters and community members can be effective, Personal messages have integrity.

Some ways to lobby your council could be:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Go along to watch a Council meeting<\/strong> and find out how their processes work (every council will do things differently). Check the agendas of upcoming meetings to see if there is anything related to your issue you\u2019d like to follow. Start finding out more about the councillors and where they stand on different environmental issues.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Every three years there are local elections. <strong>Once candidates have announced they\u2019re running for election, ask them for a meeting.<\/strong> Go along with a friend, ask questions to find out what they already know, and if they have a position on your issue. Ask them to take a public position if they haven\u2019t already.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Go to public meetings and ask councillors a question<\/strong> \u2013 will the speakers support your issue?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Grow and present a petition to target <\/strong>\u2013 a petition can show the wishes of hundreds of people on an issue. It can lead to a meeting to talk about the issue, ask questions, and gauge where the Council stands, and what barriers still exist to get the outcome you seek. You can ask petition signers to email the elected representatives with a question you provide, to show the issue is important to wide group of people.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td>\n<p><strong>Case study<\/strong><br><br><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/fSSLVrO3JqrwjQAz8gw2tanncvQs0dgV9snTQwJVkWnE7muHGx2gL_Y3D_ltg6woe6YBmtDfai5TYgHIcIsNYpEZY7bs1UPkKcABWFWKwFxjTIApu62vCZ0QhV73l21gV_PQrqP5\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\"><\/p>\n<p>Over five months, the community groups <a href=\"https:\/\/community.greenpeace.org.nz\/petitions\/mangawhai-pakiri-sos\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Save our Sands and Friends of Pakiri<\/a> attracted public support to try to stop new consents for sand extraction from the Pakiri and Mangawhai coast, which is eroding the beaches.<br><br>When presenting their petition to Auckland Council they were able to speak directly to the mayor and councillors online.
