Being SunSmart: Protecting Yourself While Enjoying the Outdoors
As the days get warmer, you will probably be spending more time outdoors.
=================================================
In New Zealand, UV levels are high from September to April — even on cool or cloudy days. Too much UV exposure increases the risk of skin cancer, and the effects build up over time. Fortunately, staying safe is simple:
• Slip on clothing: Light, loose, long-sleeved tops and trousers keep you cool while protecting your skin.
• Slip into shade: Use natural or built shade like trees, gazebos, or buildings, especially during peak UV hours.
• Slop on sunscreen: Use broad-spectrum, water-resistant sunscreen with SPF30 or higher. Apply 20 minutes before going outside and reapply every two hours, or after swimming.
• Slap on a hat: Wear a wide-brimmed hat that shades your face, ears, and neck.
• Wrap on sunglasses: Not all sunglasses protect against UV radiation – always check the label for the sun protection rating or AS/NZ1067:2016 sunglasses Standard.

Wills and Luxon are screwing the country to please the oil and gas industry.
Today the smart investment is in battery peaker plants in combination with solar and wind, or with any other renewable generation capacity during low demand times.
Gas is expensive and will get more so over time.
Let's not forget that Nicola Willis' dad is a big time oil and gas investor, lobbyist, and industry insider.
