If I was prime minister
#3
(19-08-2023, 01:51 PM)harm_less Wrote: What about pot holes, logging slash, hospital waiting lists, nitrate pollution of aquifers, managed retreat of weather event affected dwellings, Auckland traffic congestion, and wool prices, or will you just be addressing the RWNJ focussed issues?
Totally would want to address all those issues too, most definitely.
Look at all the potholes under this left govt and lack of roads, we dont have enough roads in this country and they are not future proofed to handle more volume.
Managed retreat is just climate propaganda. Those homes should never have been built in flood zones and in Auckland, those homes were built with no proper drainage or storm water for example.
Much cheaper to address flood mitigation,  stop banks, etc than to buy everyone out.
Wool prices are unfortunately something to deal with unless more products come to the market, thankfully there are startups such as wise wool that featured on country calendar that produce insulation.
Unless farmers start farming merino, then clothing will be a limited market for wool.
But I agree, it's a valuable resource and ir irony is this government wants to penalize sheep farmers when wool is a very sustainable product with far lower carbon impact than synthetic fibre and doesn't make microplastics.
Unapologetic NZ first voter, white cis male, climate change skeptic.
