Climate Change

Ivan from Linwood

While the wars between Ukarine/Russia & Gaza/Israel continue, I have heard no leaders/polititions etc say a word about how this sets the earth back years on any efforts to stop this. It seems like we are wasting time with agreements on lowering emissions, carbon emissions, greenhouse gas, etc, … View moreWhile the wars between Ukarine/Russia & Gaza/Israel continue, I have heard no leaders/polititions etc say a word about how this sets the earth back years on any efforts to stop this. It seems like we are wasting time with agreements on lowering emissions, carbon emissions, greenhouse gas, etc, etc, etc. Organisations like UN can't agree on anything. The 1997 Kyoto Protocol agreement, the Paris agreement, in fact all Climate change agreements are useless and the planet has been set back 100's of years while these senseless countries hammer each other into the ground destroying humanity. Has anyone heard from any climate scientists recently? The only people more silent on the subject are those that did not believe. It seems to me that no one gives a dam any more.

No majority in vote to pursue Linwood Village upgrade

Linwood Village is in desperate need of the Christchurch City Council’s long-awaited investment, community leaders say.

Linwood Village is in desperate need of the Christchurch City Council’s long-awaited investment, community leaders say.

However, the work, which was first promised more than 10 years ago, is not likely to happen any time soon.

The village, which is centred around Stanmore Rd between Hereford and Gloucester streets, was severely affected by the 2011 earthquakes, with 60% of its commercial buildings either lost or damaged.

Plans to spruce up the area have been continually delayed and then last year the council came up with a $2m plan to make the area more welcoming and people-friendly.

However, the project is now one of 11 transport projects worth a total of $26m, under threat because Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency funding is on hold, awaiting direction from the incoming Government.

Sumner’s SuperValue supermarket is being redeveloped and will reopen next year more than twice the size.

Construction is under way on a new building on Nayland St next to the supermarket, which is part of the Sumner Mall on the corner of Wakefield Ave.

The existing supermarket premises and adjacent Bottle-O liquor store will eventually be upgraded and merged into the new building going up next door.

The new L-shaped supermarket will be rebranded as FreshChoice.
