Poll: Is doing your bit to address climate change a priority for you in 2023?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The environment is on the mind for North Islanders after a recent study by the University of Auckland that found that Aucklanders are inhaling large amounts of airborne microplastics.

Some New Zealanders are trying to do their bit for climate change by biking more, planting trees, trying Meat-Free Mondays and only purchasing used clothing.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
