Now more than ever, Kiwis are becoming “greenies”

The 2015 Go Green Expo is being held at the ASB Showgrounds on the 18th and 19th of April.

The 2015 Go Green Expo will be bigger than ever this year with the number of eco-conscious Kiwi shoppers increasing by a third.

A recent study showed that 76%* of New Zealanders feel personally tasked with creating a more sustainable environment. With this rapid change in attitude, everyday Kiwis are now more aware of their lifestyle choices and the impacts it has on their health, says Go Green Expo manager, Damien Hochberg.

“Over the years sustainability has become more and more mainstream. Three quarters of New Zealanders are more conscious of the impact their environment has on their health, the dangers of certain modern pharmaceuticals and processed foods.” says Damien.

New Zealand’s largest organic, natural, sustainable, green living show will be held at Auckland’s ASB Showgrounds on the 18th and 19th of April.
