Latest on Surveys
One of the Supermarket surveys I was doing today has a choice where I choose Most Important or Least Important for a nimber of categories.
One of these was Signage on the shelves inTeo Maori.
As I get older and my sight and hearing and mobility get worse, I would like several guides.... One to tell me what is on the shelf. Or one to tell me by sign language. Or another to lead me to whatever I need. Or another to translate the Te Reo signage to English. I did already notice a mobility shoping vehicle at Countdown in the Palms, but if my eyesight gets worse I may need a driver for this. But the Supermarkets have already solved these problems with Shop Online so I just need a Braille keyboard......Do they have these at the blind forndation? I already inquired about sonar glasses when I was a support worker with a disabled blind person in my care. They did not seem to know what these are?? What a wonderful world this is going to be in the future. Especially if Supermarkets twice as large with shelves that can have touch buttons say with speakers that will have six or more languages to tell people what and and how much everything is. Oh that and signage in at least six languages as well as braille!!!!
Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? π»π¨π
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
37.8% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
62.2% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, weβre a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature β and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
π Riddle me this, legends! π
He/She who makes it, sells it.
He/She who buys it, doesn't use it.
The user doesn't know they are using it.
What is it?
