Oh man, this is messed up. https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/495160/sawdust-with-high-levels-of-heavy-metals-shuts-off-part-of-tahunanui-beach but at least it's a great photo op for Mayor Nick Smith (who, as a National MP, famously replaced Canterbury's elected regional council with gov't selected 'administrators' to ensure that the unsustainable CPWS (irrigation scheme) was rammed through to benefit a few wealthy corporate farmers/Nat'l supporters). Who's going to take responsibility for this horrible "she'll be right" oversight?
