Join Lucia on the Youth Advisory Group
“It was so cold! We camped with just a thin foam mat, the tent floor, then snow, on Ruapehu. But I like being outdoors, I think the environment is such an important part of our future, especially for young people. The school strike for climate change was pretty cool, I guess it does make a big difference when all the kids in NZ kind of stop and go, “hey.” Joining the Youth Advisory Group (YAG) is my way to take action and do something about climate change.. YAG has opened my mind up to society and systems, which is really cool because as a kid you don’t get taught a lot about that and it just makes your perspective that little bit wider about how things actually work.”
Want to join Lucia and make a difference, or know someone who could? Applications to join the Youth Advisory Group close on Sunday 14 Feb.

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.

noisy dogs
lats get cracking on this topic.
Ignorant, selfish dog "owners" that allow their dogs to bark all bloody night and to hell with neighbors right to reasonable peace and quiet and reluctance of authorities to do anything
