Nicola Willis wants you all to know that the ferries she cancelled wouldn’t be sailing in this weather anyway. So there.

If you’re someone like me who wears contact lenses most of your waking times, it’s a good idea to have a pair of glasses easily accessible from bed incase you need to get up in a hurry during the night (& don’t have time, or power for lights, etc to put lenses in).

So, we've a boil-water notice in Christchurch. Sewerage being blown inland from the South Wellington coastline, and deadly floods in the King Country?

These must be the three waters they warned us about.

That $6 billion climate resilience fund would be useful right now if NATIONAL HADN’T SCRAPPED IT!

At least the landlords got their handouts though.

I wanted to re-up this in light of the most recent climate disaster (yesterday). There is so much needful that needs doing, and both of the major parties have committed to either not doing it, or doing the opposite.

This must change.
