Forest and Bird says it has a plan that could create thousands of jobs and help make sure a better New Zealand comes out of the Covid-19 pandemic.
It's been talking to local and central government about ways to invest money during post-Covid recovery.
These include spending money on electric railways, ramping up pest and weed eradication and increasing Department of Conservation staff, particularly on the front-line.
Forest and Bird spokesperson Geoff Keey spoke to RNZ reporter Laura Dooney about the plan.
