Views sought on climate change

Reporter Community News

Porirua residents are being asked their views on climate change.
Their climate change strategy ‘Rautaki o te ao Hurihuri’ has been developed in response to the declaration of a climate emergency by Porirua City Council on 26th June 2019. It lists actions that will be taken over the next 3-4 years.
These actions are intended to support mitigating the effects of climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and to prepare the city for the impacts of climate change.
The council is running a survey and wants to know what residents think about climate change.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
