Taranaki prepares for a new future. How will you contribute?
Carbon emissions have grown 20 per cent in the past decade, and we need to be paying attention. We need to be asking what we will be driving, where we will be working, and what we will be eating, to change our lifestyle by 2050.
Educational institutions, such as Taranaki's Western Institute of Technology will be handed a role of upskilling an already highly skilled workforce during the transition towards a low emission economy.
Current ideas include having a car-free day each week, switching to LED lighting and turning appliances off at the wall. What do you currently do to help reach zero carbon? Do you think it's an issue we need to be putting more importance on NOW?
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Hi,
Looking for someone reasonable to provide a quote to fix a Panasonic heat pump that a) leaks a little when on cool mode and b) doesn’t heat.
Appreciate all your recommendations
