First question, do we still use the ripple system in NZ with our hot water cylinders?

Second question, if it is still active, is there any way to stop it, by either ringing power company or other methods would be welcome?

Having a toddler means we need hot water more than we used too but it's always barely warm even first thing in the morning and with little to no usage at all i'm confused why we have no hot water. No long showers either. Never have an issue in summer...when we use less hot water.

Poll: Should learning about climate change be part of the school curriculum?

Stacey Reporter from Stuff

Climate change is the most critical issue of the moment, and has been described by our prime minister as her generation's "nuclear-free moment". Its impacts, regardless of your views on it, are only going to get greater.

Yet it is not part of our school curriculum.

Climate change is the most critical issue of the moment, and has been described by our prime minister as her generation's "nuclear-free moment". Its impacts, regardless of your views on it, are only going to get greater.
