Climate leaders become beneficiaries as budget cuts axe community funding
A climate change educator is wondering where the next generation of climate leaders will come from if sweeping Auckland Council budget cuts are passed.
Auckland mayor Wayne Brown is seeking to plug a $375 million shortfall in Auckland Council’s budget. His proposal includes a $20m cut to a wide range of community, and arts funding.
This includes reducing local board operating funding by $16m – 5% of the total budget local boards oversee.

What's one highway or road that needs attention?
We've all been on a summer roadie and experienced first-hand the state of our roads.
If you've ever been stuck in a summer traffic jam, had near-misses on dangerous turns or feared for your life on clifftops (while the car behind you is tail-gating!) - you may have an opinion on this one.
Tell us what main road or highway you think needs some serious attention across the country, and why!
