Quieter Please!
On Kiwiology since: December 10th, 2007This blog covers the issues of Noise Pollution and a disenfranchised community in Christchurch.
“In 1999 , without consideration for,or consultation with, any of the many hundreds of residents living within earshot of Ruapuna the Christchurch City Council gave the Powerbuilt Ruapuna Raceway permission to operate 365 days a year. At the same time it allowed them to more than double their noise levels.”
“The Solution is an invention as old as the Motor Vehicle - THE MUFFLER. Their noise is optional - having to listen to it all day isn’t.”

walking. is . overrated
On Kiwiology since: October 12th, 2007nz disability news, views, and reviews by Red Nicholson.
“I set up this blog because I’m constantly frustrated by a lack of info - online or otherwise - regarding how accessible places are around Auckland City, and as a power-wheelchair user with cerebral palsy, that can be pretty frustrating! So whilst I slowly trundle through reviewing the places I know, and places I’ve been a few times, I would love nothing more than to have some of you contribute! After all, I can’t cover the whole of Auckland by myself..”
