Poll: Should learning about climate change be part of the school curriculum?

Stacey Reporter from Stuff

The architecture firm behind the concept plans, Apa Architects in Rotorua, estimated the project would cost between $10 million and $15m to build.

I was thinking of the kind that farmers put over the top of their hay while it is in the paddock-they look really thick and waterproof, not like the tarps you get in Mitre 10, etc. It is roughly about 30ft long by 8ft wide. Any help would be much appreciated.
