Thanks to major tech improvements and mass production over the past decade, the cost of wind, solar, and other renewables has dropped fast. As a result, most new power capacity built around the world came from renewables, and every continent added more clean energy than fossil fuels.
Money — the ultimate decision-maker in politics and business — is finally lining up with climate action. A big win for the planet (and maybe our wallets?)
We hope this news brings a smile!

We got talking about the power of nature — green spaces like parks, bush walks, or even just sitting under a tree, and blue spaces like the ocean, lakes, or rivers. Research agrees: being in nature really does help calm the mind. We’re lucky here in Aotearoa to have such beautiful spots right on our doorstep!
But sometimes, getting out for a walk or escaping to the beach isn’t an option. So we’re curious...
We want to know: What do you do to find a moment of calm when life gets a bit too much?
A hot cuppa? A good playlist? Staring out the window?
Let us know ... your go-to might help someone else breathe a little easier, too.
Howdy Neighbours,
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend ahead! I’ll be spending mine visiting a few nurseries, hunting for some outdoor plants — wish me luck with my new green thumb adventures! 🌱

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend ahead! I’ll be spending mine visiting a few nurseries, hunting for some outdoor plants — wish me luck with my new green thumb adventures! 🌱
I also wanted to share a special promotion that might be valuable to you or someone you know:
👉 My team and I are building websites at up to 75% less than market value as part of a short-term promotion through www.esperion.io....
Our latest client: www.cascadeelectrical.co.nz...
👉 We’re also hosting them completely free for life — saving hundreds each year on Squarespace or WordPress fees.
If you or someone you know could benefit, please feel free to call me directly on 021 1234 365 / hello@esperion.io or pass along my number. I’d be happy to chat or even meet in person for an initial consultation (based in MIlford, North Shore).
And to finish on a lighter note:
A bossy man walked into a bar…
And ordered everyone a round. 🍻
Cheers,
Callum Sutherland
