We've reached 10,000!

Oliver Neighbourly Lead from One Tree Point

New Zealand’s 10,000th electric vehicle owner received a visit from associate transport minister and climate change minister James Shaw on September 21.
“Ten thousand EVs is an important milestone, particularly when you think that five years ago we had just 210 EVs registered,” Shaw says.
The full article can be found on EV talk.
Interested to learn more, but don't know who or what to believe? Think it's the future, or complete nonsense? Local members are welcome to join my group All About Electric Vehicles and ask away. Everyone with an honest interest in EVs is welcome and encouraged to participate, be it posting and responding, or just listening in to learn more, no matter if already an EV owner, or just interested, or on the fence, or new to the topic, or sceptical, or even opposed.

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)
.
