Here is a Mayor who understands we all face a climate emergency -

"Her motion would be to publicly acknowledge that human-induced climate change "represents one of the greatest threats to humanity ... and that it is possible to prevent the most harmful outcomes" with sustained emergency action." We need sustained emergency climate action here in Thames Coromandel and that means leadership from TCDC to reduce its own emissions - not refusal to even acknowledge that humans are causing climate change.

Councils Declare Climate Emergency

Denis from Thames

Yesterday both Environment Canterbury (ECAN) and Nelson City Council declared a ‘climate emergency’. Christchurch City Council will likely follow on Monday, and a snowball effect will mean many more councils will make similar declarations in coming weeks and months.

Pukekohe shoppers can now snap up some serious bargains for a wide range of general grocery, frozen and chilled foods, and health and beauty products. Reduced to Clear is now open in Pukekohe down by Super Liquor and the Mad Butcher on Stadium Drive.

Reduced to Clear can offer such good prices, in many cases from 50-80% off normal recommended retail price, due to the stock being either short-dated, end of packing lines, cancelled export orders, packing misprints plus loads of imported lines, but we also have a range of our own everyday lines too.

Reduced to Clear staff are ready to offer Pukekohe customers some amazing clearance deals from our new store in Stadium Drive opposite the Z store.
