The Coalition’s fantastic idea for offshore wind power

I have great news. The Coalition Government is unlocking a completely untapped renewable energy source that could provide huge amounts of clean power. It looks very similar to what you’ll find atop Brooklyn or nestled in Mākara. It is offshore wind energy – a common way to make electricity in

From Copenhagen to the capital: meet Bicycle Junction

One of the best purchases I ever made was my e-bike three years ago. I use it nearly every day to drop off library books or cart cardboard boxes across town. It is perfect personal transport.  I count on a lovely local shop called Bicycle Junction to keep it in

Beyond ownership: how Mevo helps cars fit into 21st Century travel

Wellington has so many good things going. Its glistening harbour, dramatic weather, and stunning people make it my favourite place. I especially adore Wellington because it offers something nowhere else in New Zealand does: the choice to get around however I want. Wellingtonians move around differently to the rest of

We need low-carbon infrastructure. How can we build it ASAP?

Elections have been about government’s capacity to build for a long time. Before she became PM, Jacinda Ardern grilled Bill English about his Government’s inability to deliver Auckland light rail until the 2040s. She said: If light rail is "a good idea", as he said on

The Government wants to increase your public transport costs by 71%. We must tell them no.

A few months ago, I was wrong. The Government announced the ability for Regional Councils to charge for congestion. I was happy: by increasing the cost of using a car, you can raise revenues for public transport and get more people using fast, frequent bus and train services. In isolation,
