We Say/You Say: Coastal Erosion

Neighbourly.co.nz

Hi Auckland,

How worried are you about coastal erosion in Auckland?

Auckland's shoreline could recede by 200m by 2130 if little to no action on climate change is taken.

The report, titled "Predicting Auckland's exposure to coastal instability and erosion", details the impacts this will have on communities the Auckland region.

Sea level rise is notoriously difficult for scientists to follow and this has meant coastal erosion rates have been difficult to predict.

New Zealand's sea levels have risen an average 1.67mm per year since 1989, but the Ministry of Environment says this will accelerate if little action is taken on climate change.

House/dog sitter for 25th to 29th December

Mayur from Botany Downs

Hey everyone,

We are travelling on the above dates and looking for someone to either house-sit for us or keep our collie at their place. She is 5 years old and one of the most gentle dogs you would have seen. She needs a walk a day, otherwise she is always on her own missions chasing flies and birds.

Let us know if you are keen. TIA.

Thanks,
