Geoff Bertram and James Renwick - the climate change debate
BODY:
Economist Geoff Bertram and Climate Scientist James Renwick on what they claim is the government's stifling of climate change debate.
EXTENDED BODY:
A new study has found New Zealand has a relatively high rate of climate change scepticism compared with similar industrialised countries.

Researchers at the University of Tasmania analysed surveys taken from 14 countries and found 13 percent of those surveyed in New Zealand were climate-change sceptics.
Only Australia and Norway had higher rates, with the United States coming in just behind on 12 percent.
That compares with only 2 percent of Spanish people and 4 percent of Germans and Swiss.
The study found countries with higher carbon dioxide emissions had greater rates of scepticism - and the people most likely to be sceptics tend to be male, politically conservative and less concerned about the environment.
The authors of the study conclude that despite overwhelming scientific evidence climate change is real, scepticism endures and may even be on the rise in many places.
Govt accused of stifling climate-change debate
Some academics, including Economist Geoff Bertram and Climate Scientist James Renwick, say the Government is trying to stifle climate-change debate.
The Government has held a month of public meetings about what emissions target it should present when world leaders meet for talks in Paris in December.
But a former Victoria University economist, Geoff Bertram, told the Sunday Morning programme those meetings were not taken seriously.
"No minister or politician turned up to these meetings, well apart from one or two opposition politicians who were in the audience. The meetings were left to officials to conduct and I think that what it boiled down to was the Government really just saying 'hey do you guys care enough to turn up to a meeting'?"
Mr Bertram said during the consultation the Government overplayed the cost of reducing emissions.

Insight for 28 June 2015 - Democracy and Water Rights
BODY:
Conan Young explores democracy, water rights and the future of Environment Canterbury
EXTENDED BODY:
After five years without a democratically elected regional council, warnings are being sounded that Canterbury's stock of capable leaders is in danger of being hollowed out.
As Insight investigated the plan for ECan to make a partial return to democracy, it was told the region is getting used to having decisions made for it by government appointed commissioners.
Listen to Insight: Democracy and Water Rights
Environment Canterbury's councillors were sacked by the government amidst claims they were dysfunctional and had failed to introduce a water plan for the region, allowing it to make the most of its alpine water and reap the economic rewards of large scale irrigation.
Now there's a proposal for a partial return to democracy with a mix of elected members and appointed commissioners.
According to the government, there's still too much at stake to risk a return to fully elected councillors.
But the head of the Politics Department at Canterbury University, Bronwyn Hayward, takes issue with that position.
The partial return of democracy to Canterbury is in fact "close to gerrymandering" by the government to ensure farming interests continue to have the loudest voice around the council table.
"There's a reason democracies survive, and they survive because there's a wisdom in crowd thinking where the richer the debate the more we can be confident that the outcomes will really last for generations.
"Now of course democracies can be frustrating, and of course you'd like to be able to just rush a decision through and of course we sometimes don't get terrific councillors. But actually appointing your mates is never a good way to run your country," she says.
The mixed model should have been introduced three years ago, according to Professor Hayward.
She sounds a warning about the length of time Canterbury is being left without a fully elected council and serious impact that could have.
"We haven't got a skills base of people that have been sitting around the board. So when the government talks about a crisis now, it's a crisis all of their own making."
Environment Minister Nick Smith, who also made the initial decision to sack the council, maintains a return to fully elected councillors would put to much power back in the hands of urban voters.
He argues full democracy at ECan would run the risk of councillors being elected that didn't share the same aims as the commissioners he put in place to regulate water use in Canterbury.
"What made the previous council very difficult was you had a rural community that had huge economic issues at stake with respect to fresh water and an urban community that was not that economically affected but very very concerned about the environmental issues."
"A highly polarised council and polarised governance bodies don't work well."

But there is still a strong feeling in Canterbury that ECan should return to being fully elected. When the councillors were sacked in 2010, thousands turn out to protest against the decision in a region where water is a crucial issue.
Hamish Rennie is a lecturer in Planning and Environmental Management at Lincoln University and another who objects to commission running ECan.
"The National government treats New Zealand as New Zealand Incorporated. I'm quite happy with them doing that but then their approach is to think in terms of a business model whereby if you have a branch office which is not doing exactly what you want it to do, you get rid of the managers and appoint new managers that will do what you want it to do. And that's the sense I have about what happened in Canterbury."
Dr Smith insists there was no pressure from irrigators to dump the council, and that his decision was driven as much by a wish to see limits put on polluting dairy farmers as a desire to see the rapid expansion of irrigation schemes on the plains.
The elected councillors simply weren't up to the job, he says.
"They were the worst prepared for the change in stepping up New Zealand's water management, absolutely hopeless in terms of processing resource consents, the worst of 86 councils in New Zealand.
"We had the independent review of ECan describing the governance of the body as dysfunctional and we had a letter from all ten mayors in Canterbury, pleading for the government to intervene."
The main job of the commissioners is to bring in a Canterbury Water Management Strategy to decide how the region's water resources should be used, and to place limits on the amount of nitrogen dairy farmers are allowed to send into waterways.
To draw up the strategy the commissioners picked up where their elected counterparts left off by appointing committees across 10 water catchments.
The Hurunui catchment was the first to get its plan through and has been followed this year by a plan for the Selwyn Waihora catchment, known as Variation One.
It covers the area between the Waimakariri and Rakaia Rivers and includes one of the most polluted lakes in the country, Te Waihora-Lake Ellesmere.
Fish and Game's Environmental advisor, Scott Pearson, picks green gloop out of one of the drainage canals that takes run-off from paddocks on neighbouring dairy farms that is then pumped straight into the lake.
"This particular spot here, you can just tell by the colour of the water that the clarity's poor. And we know that from a number of the monitoring sites around the lake that the nitrate levels are extremely high."
The lake will deteriorate further once the Central Plains irrigation scheme goes online in September, according to Scott Pearson.
"Once that scheme is fully running at 60,000 hectares, the additional cows might be between 60,000 and 80,000. So that's the equivalent of 800,000 to 900,000 people in the catchment that doesn't have a sewage treatment plant to deal with the aftermath."

The 14 percent reduction in overall nitrogen run-off Variation One aims to achieve over the next 23 years will still leave the catchment with more nitrogen run-off than it has now, says Mr Pearson.
But the commissioner and deputy ECan chairperson, David Caygill, is upbeat about the progress that has been achieved with an appointed council.
The changes ECan has introduced over the past five years are as much about environmental protection as advancing the interests of the irrigators, he says.
The scrapping of appeals to the Environment Court have allowed planning changes to be introduced two years ahead of schedule, and he insists the extra check the court provided hasn't been completely lost due to the retention of independent commissioners who hear submissions and make the final decision on whether a plan should be implemented.
He also rejects any suggestion that commissioners are at risk of losing touch with the community because they are not elected.
"I feel as busy, but also as open, as connected, as if I was a politician. I'm not up for re-election, so I don't have to worry about the impact of any decisions I make on my election prospects.
"But to be honest that wasn't the sort of thing that used to keep me awake at night when I was an elected politician.
"My view has always been the most important thing an elected person can do is firstly make the decisions they believe are right, necessary, appropriate, and then be prepared to explain or defend them and be open on the basis on which you've acted. I think both of those tests apply to our behaviour as commissioners."
But Dr Smith believes the job the commissioners were put there to do is only half completed.
"Our number one concern is around the Canterbury Water Management Strategy, there's a huge amount of work that's happening in the zone committees, that work comes through a crunch period from 2016 to 2019, and we think that by having a mixed model we can keep that continuity but gradually shift it back to a democratic model so that by 2019 we've got a fully elected council and at the same time we've got a robust water plan for the region," he says.
A final decision on the make-up of the new council is expected shortly and a bill is expected to go before parliament before the end of the year, paving the way for elections next year.

Cantabrians will next year get the chance to vote for their regional councillors for the first time in six years. They were sacked by the government in 2010 amidst claims they were dysfunctional and the government's desire to make progress over proposals for large scale irrigation schemes needed for intensive dairy farming. Next year's return to democracy is unlikely to please all voters due to a proposal to retain a large number of government appointed commissioners. In this week's Insight, Christchurch reporter, Conan Young, looks at what has happened since the commissioners took charge and what the implications of this new model are for regional councils around the rest of New Zealand.

A Stitch in Time
BODY:
For over seven years a dedicated group of volunteers have been passing on their quilting and life skills to prisoners at Auckland Region Women's Correctional Facility. The group is led by Mary Ann, who along with the other volunteers, wish to keep their last names anonymous.
EXTENDED BODY:
For over seven years a dedicated group of volunteers have been passing on their quilting and life skills to prisoners at Auckland Region Women's Correctional Facility.
“I’ve was brought up with the basic premise of giving everyone a bit of a fair shake…and I saw no reason why we couldn’t work with women in the prison” - Mary Ann, Quilt-Stich Group team leader.

Quilt-Stitch is led by Mary Ann, who along with the other volunteers, wish to keep their last names anonymous.
Nearly every week, Mary Ann makes a 30 kilometre round trip to Wiri to impart not only the basics of how to thread needles, take measurements and choose colours, but also to drop in pearls of her own wisdom from life on the outside into the ears of her ‘Friday Girls’.
In 2012 the group’s work was nationally recognised with a Big ‘A’ Prison Arts Community Award.
Mary Ann says it was surprise but an honour to receive the award.
“No-one in our group is doing this with thoughts of honour and glory. We all acknowledge there is a huge need for prisoners to have some practical skills to take with them when they go back into the community,” she says.
“I’m not bleeding-heart liberal… no… but I’m practical and constructive and you like to think you’re making a difference.”
While there’s lots of chit-chat and laughter along the way, Mary Ann says there’s no greater reward than watching their protégés grow in self-worth and confidence.
For a few hours on a Friday morning, over a period of 30 sessions, the prisoners are able to leave behind the reality that they’re in and concentrate on producing beautiful quilts, bags, sewing kits and table runners.
“You never talk about what’s gone on, what’s led you to here, it’s always just straight into it, into quilting,” says one young prisoner.
“There’s no judgement... sometimes you might bring up what’s going on in your life… they’ll have a few bits of wisdom to impart on you and then you get on with your sewing. It’s detoxing.”
The prisoners also produce Angel Quilts for new-born babies at Middlemore Hospital.
Added to packs of hand knitted baby clothes issued to parents, it’s a way for the women to be able to show their gratitude by giving something back to those in need.
So adept they become at their craft, many have more than one project on the go at any one time.
And nearly everything in the room that they use has been donated by individuals and charitable organisations from around the country… fabric, machines, thread and, of course, time.
Lisa Thompson joins Mary Ann and her girls and sees how some simple stitching skills are helping to change prisoners’ lives.

12:42 Contract disputes over Eight Gigabytes of Hardcore Pornography
There's a heated debate over the Silo Theatre production of Eight Gigabytes of Hardcore Pornography’s decision to change the ending of Australian writer Declan Greene's play so the actors only strip to their underwear rather than completely.
[image:42065:full]
Greene's play is supposed to end with the actors stripping naked - that's how it's been performed in Australia and that's what the contract Silo signed agreed to specifies. Silo Theatre is using the dispute as a selling point, reviewers are divided, and industry websites like Theatreview are hearing from people with polarised views. Lynn Freeman speaks to Declan Greene, Silo Theatre's Artistic Director Sophie Roberts, and Michael Hurst who was a speaker at a recent Equity NZ workshop about nudity and simulated sex on stage and screen.

EXTENDED BODY:
Manu Tioriori is a four part series looking into the life, work and connections into some of today's Māori musicians.
Hip hop artist Tipene Harmer released his first self-produced EP Tautoko in 2011. Justine Murray heads to Flaxmere to meet Tipene who hails from Ngāti Kahungunu, Ngati Porou and Ngapuhi to get a better understanding of his music, his work and his whanau.
Tipene Harmer doesn't brag about wanting to make it big overseas, nor does he rap about flashy clothes or labels, he doesn't even use any swear words in his songs, 'I wasn't raised like that' he says.
His stomping ground of Flaxmere, Hastings a community that has had it's fair share of stigmatisation with it's high unemployment and crime rates. But Flaxmere is the community Tipene proclaims as B.A.D. (Bay All Day), and is patriotic about where he grew up, he is clear about his whakapapa with ties to Ngāti Pōrou, Ngāti Kahungunu and he only just recently learned about his Nga Puhi heritage. As one of twelve kids, he's had to grow up fast.

In his debut single Westside Hori, he opens up to the details of his childhood.
My mum was only young when she met my father 'bout
Twenty years ago when she got kicked out of my father's house
I 'member asking 'where we going Mum, what's wrong with Dad?'
'Just get your clothes and jump in the car' was all she said
- Tipene Harmer (Lyrics in Westside Hori)

He tapped into his entrepreneurial skills when he set about fundraising for his mum's Hura Kohatu (Unveiling of her headstone), he produced his first EP, Tautoko in order to raise money for the thousands needed. The album was eventually heard by label representatives, inevitably Tipene would sign on to Warner Records. Over the past five years, his music and self-produced videos have gained traction via social media, culminating in over one million views at his Native Niche youtube site, and he's got over ten thousand Likes on his Facebook page, this year he was the recipient of a 'Living Tāonga' award for Rangatahi Leadership at this years Matariki Living Tāonga Awards organised by Te Taiwhenua o Heretaunga.
With music it's not just about your woes, or just saying all the things that are wrong in the world, for me I grew up with Bob Marley, Tupac and Bone Thugs and all the old school music as well, and the reason I like that kind of music is because they all had some sort of solution in it. Its about saying well this is the card we were dealt, but this is how you get through it.
- Tipene Harmer

Tipene has always known that he wanted to be an musician, he would spend up to a week making a mixtape, playing it at parties, only for the tapes to be nicked, Initially he'd be upset by it, but then he thought that if someone was going to steal his mixtapes, maybe he was pretty good at it. In Westside Hori, he raps about his childhood, and in the track Letters to the Starrs, he harks back to the time when his cousin Richard Starr died in a car accident.
Pioneers is Tipene's tribute to the Hip Hop artists he grew up with, the icing on the cake is that he collaborated with DLT, Dam Native and Tyna Hammond on the song. It's his ode to the New Zealand hip hop.
In part one of this four part series about Māori Musicians, Justine Murray is with Tipene at his home to talk music, whanau connections and his outlook on life.

8:22 The Hermitage 23’04"
The second Hermitage opened in 1914, controlled and promoted by the then Department of Tourist and Health Resorts. The Mount Cook Motor Company was keen to help extend it as a visitor numbers drew on the company's services and also to keep the Hermitage open throughout winter. Eventually the company applied to lease the property, taking it over in 1921. The Hermitage was extended, camping facilities developed and package tours offered - for perhaps the first time in New Zealand. Further extensions came in 1924. In 1944 the lease expired and the Mount Cook and Southern Lakes Tourist Company, as it become known, returned the Hermitage to the Government. Disaster struck in 1957 when the second Hermitage was razed to the ground in a spectacular fire. The Government moved quickly to design and build a new hotel on the present site. It was operational by May 1958 and has since been extended several times.
