“In our whenua, in our moana, we hold our faith, we hold our history. The way in which we feed ourselves, our culture, our traditions, our songs, our dance. Climate change threatens all of that,”

It is apparent from this afternoon's workshop on climate change at the @Water_NZ conference that we're grappling with ageing water infrastructure. Climate change will only make these challenges greater. Luckily, there are smart and dedicated people committed to finding solutions.
