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.

Yet it is not part of our school curriculum.

Some experts say that has to change. It is such an existential threat that not to make it a requirement to teach children about climate change is doing them a great disservice, they say.

Ambitious proposals for a memorial to the March 15 terror attack response include a large ornamental water feature, a playground and a conference centre.

The New Zealand Federation of Islamic Associations has drawn up concept plans for a memorial to "capture the legacy of how New Zealanders all came together as one" after the shootings at two Christchurch mosques.

The architecture firm behind the concept plans, Apa Architects in Rotorua, estimated the project would cost between $10 million and $15m to build.

So much needs to go, could really do with renting a garage

Tasina from Shirley

Hi is there anybody out there that happens to have a garage /space that they arnt using currently. I have a lot of old market stock and years of clutter, to good to dump, that I really need a dry secure space to sort and host a garage sale or two. Power would be great as some stuff needs some … View moreHi is there anybody out there that happens to have a garage /space that they arnt using currently. I have a lot of old market stock and years of clutter, to good to dump, that I really need a dry secure space to sort and host a garage sale or two. Power would be great as some stuff needs some tlc but it isn’t a necessity. I am happy to pay a rental and sign a mutual agreement and a contribution if power is available although I can’t afford a lot as am on an invalids benefit otherwise I would rent a storage unit.

I had a lot more stuff than I do now but a lot has gotten wet and ruined and gone mouldy etc from inadequate storage and I have lost a lot financially having to dump the stuff.
I have tried marketing, trademe, yard sale , even a tent sale but none are very well suited to my needs

I would probably only need it for a month or so and would leave it in the same condition I found it or even better , open to offers ideas trades etc. ie. gardening for rental , sell on behalf etc
