Fun little update, I graduated Northwestern Medill and joined the amazing Morning Report team at RNZ as a producer! But I'll still be dropping the odd climate story, so keep an eye out 👀

I spoke to some experts to see if we're likely to go the same way as the UK and Australia - harshening penalties for disruptive (and therefore climate) protestors. They said probably not. New Zealanders quite like protest.

In another edition of the The Listener this week, have a read about the risks facing the Feildings, Martons and Dannevirkes of the country as building owners scramble to meet their seismic strengthening deadlines. I love seeing all the quaint old buildings when I'm road tripping!
