Ocean Flyer signs Seaglider MoU with Northport
Imagine riding to Auckland CBD in just over half an hour, on NZ water and through NZ air, powered by NZ wind and sunshine, with no potholes, road cones or landslides, and no four-laning or road maintenance needed. Compare that to a 3-hour ride in an obese diesel vehicle manufactured overseas, running on fossil fuel mined and refined overseas, with all the profits going overseas.
Whenever I read about new ways of transport, like sea gliders or wave skimmers, I remember that our own district council claimed during last year's consultation that there was "no evidence" of emerging alternative transport options, and that our only choice was building a larger airport. Yet the Ocean Flyer may already be up and running before council can even make a decision if, how and where to build that new airport.
It makes me so incredibly sad that we don't have a vision for a liveable future based on collective well-being within ecological limits in our district. All we are served is more of the same that hasn't been working for us, and we even voted for this (well, 40% of us did).
Sigh...

What are your winter-warming hacks?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

June is upon us, so it's well and truly time to hunker down for the colder temperatures. For some across Aotearoa, this just means a second duvet on the bed. And for others, it's defrosting your car windscreen daily and bringing out the heaters.

Sam was disengaged and struggling to find meaning in his daily routine of attending school, doing chores, and playing video games. Then, he was invited to join a Graeme Dingle Foundation programme, which introduced him to the outdoors.

After the wilderness adventure, Sam became more confident and self-assured, and his teachers noticed a positive change in his sociability and willingness to ask questions in class.

He developed a "give-it-a-go" attitude. Inspired by his newfound passion for the outdoors, Sam plans to join the New Zealand Defence Force after finishing school.
