A climate Change Movie - but a happy one!!

Yolande from Mount Albert

I just want to do a shout out to really well made and inspiring MOVIE on climate change. "Towards 2040" by Damon Gameau. It's easy to watch, and in some ways it's a love story.

I've seen it twice and it makes me feel proactive, empowered and hopeful. I know there need to be local solutions to local problems, but we all benefit from looking, learning and talking...

The website 'what'syour2040' has webinars every Sunday on global climate issues, as well as stories, people to support, and ways to get involved.

Some of the solutions are Australian based, as Damon is Australian so it will be great to learn all our NZ initiatives currently operating or beginning.

The movie is showing still at the Rialto and Academy, and in Devonport, but probably not for too long.

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
