Wild Rivers Action Project (WRAP)

Wild rivers action project WRAP has been formed by a group of individuals concerned at the incremental degradation of NZ’s wild rivers by hydro-electric development.

WRAP acknowledges the essential nature of adequate elecricity supply in civilisation as we know it.

WRAP seeks to change the way in which electricity is regarded by society. The continuing growth of electrical energy demand cannot be met without increasingly onerous biological, physical,& aesthetic demands on our environment.

WRAP contends that a reliable adequate electricity supply should be regarded as a priviledge rather than as at present, an infinite resource we have a right to squander at will.
