You deserve to be truly comfortable in a warm, dry home without stressing about power bills.
Warmer Kiwi Homes is a government grant that offers 80% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.
And you may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.

It is time to start planning to counter the sea level rise, which is increasing faster and faster as years go by. If we do nothing, the whole Wellington harbour will overfill, inundating the city and the Hutt valley

If we do nothing, the whole Wellington harbour will overfill, inundating the city and the Hutt valley
I suggest designing a dam across the entrance, with 2 ship locks to allow access and departures. It could go between Breaker Bay and Pencarrow.
There must also be a powered pumped outflow over the dam from the inner harbour into the ocean to keep the inner harbour and its surroundings safe.
And yes, it will "cost a lot of money" but the cost of NOT doing it will be many times worse.

"This bird is believe it, or not, I believe is Black Tern! "The Black Tern is one of four marsh tern species found worldwide and the rarest in New Zealand, with one accepted sighting north of Wellington in 2022. When breeding it is a small black tern with grey wings. It is pale in non-breeding plumage (as was the only local record).
Like the closely related white-winged black tern, the black tern can be found in a range of freshwater and estuarine habitats. The nominate form breeds in Eurasia, migrating to Africa to winter, while the North America subspecies migrates to Central and South America" We now have at least three birds in New Zealand, as I spotted three individual birds with the flock of White Fronted Terns. So rare in NZ. Very rapt, and a great find."
