Featuring the podcast of our weekly Hoon live webinar, plus five things that mattered this week, including the latest big housing, climate and political news in Aotearoa, and in geopolitics
Most important item is Auckland 3.8 deg temp increase projection cp to global average 1.5 deg, which raises question of how other cities/regions in NZ will be impacted, and implications for local extreme storm events, drought/fire risk, and agriculture.
The mandates to use RCP 8.5 is happening in other parts of the world with little appreciation that taking this bleak position means doing even less or mis allocating our limited time and resources to the wrong things.
I had a lovely chat with Rod at Warkworth once and he described me and my wife as being "financially counter cyclical". We have worn that badge with pride ever since. What a lovely example of humanity, a sad loss.☹️

It was good to have Troy on the call.

Felt like we needed a few more hours to really get into the guests/topics but great korero as always
