***********
Nominated by Jake De Geest from Whangarei: "My nomination is for Engraving Systems in Whangarei. Wayne and Kate (the owners) have been trying to support all the locals' sports clubs and businesses with great service and going that extra mile to honestly help. Wayne is also an extroverted performer and has given his time to clubs and organisations in Whangarei free of charge to play music and MC events so they can get some money back into their coffers and stay afloat in a most difficult year. He really has brought some life back into the community and although he will disagree with me he should be acknowledged and rewarded for all the hard work he does."

Just today I witnessed another instance of this at my local coffee caravan, when an insanely obese car pulled up, and the driver got out, leaving the keys in the ignition and the car's engine running for about 10 minutes while getting his coffee and treat.
I still can't wrap my head around why we would be doing this, and who taught us that this is ok. Fortunately I have EECA's Gen Less on my side, who published this article on their website today. Maybe it'll resonate better with people when it's coming from them? I sure hope so. Heck, even the Australians get it... ;-)
Northland civil defence is changing the way it tests its tsunami sirens, to acknowledge some people are still unsettled after the tsunami evacuation warning on March 5.

Instead of the sirens going off for 10 minutes at 10am and then 30 seconds at 10.30am, the sirens will go off once only for just two minutes, at midday on Easter Sunday, April 4. Does the sound of the tsunami siren scare you?

So we're encouraging Kiwis to consider climate-friendly modes of transport such as biking, scooting and walking when making trips under two kilometres.
That's why we've launched the ShopPack - a New Zealand-first backpack-style reusable shopping bag to let you keep your hands free on the move.
If you are sick, please go to your GP first.
