Solar Power

Patricia from Kamo

In view of Thursday's power outage - does anyone know if they are putting solar panels on the expansive roofs that are going up at Kamo High School? If not why not?
Also what about these data centres they are building in New Zealand that are going to use power equivalent to 200,000 households (twice the number that were affected on Thursday). Are they going to be made to install solar power?

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
