  1. A poll today on Newshub said 89% say they dont go for dental repairs because of the high cost.

    Poll: Do you put off going to the dentist due to fear or cost?
    3 hours ago

    Former health minister Dame Annette King says dental therapists could help provide affordable oral health care to older Kiwis, but first they need their own regulatory body.

    Her comments are a major push on the right to affordable dental care for adults and the “key role” that dental therapists could play in making dental care more available.

    Do you need to go to the dentist, but are currently putting it off due to fear or cost?

  2. HOW ARE WE GOING TO STOP THE BOTH REGIONS ARTIC ICECAPS MELTING BY 2025 THEN DESTROYING US ALL BEFORE THE GOVERNMENTS PLAN TO BE ‘CARBON ZERO 2050″ (THEN IT WILL BE TO LATE TO SAVE ALL OF US)

    MY SUBMISSION TO SAVE US AL NOW;

    We must now be bold and switch back to ‘rail freight/passenger globally and regionally in NZ’ as steel wheels dont pollute;

    Consider this; – it takes 12 litres of oil to make one truck tyre and now every large freight truck now uses 32 of them; – and the tyre dust causes all icecaps to melt; – as the tyre dust is carried by the ocean currents to the artic and antartic as we speak now.

    So tyre dust is being spread all around the roads and into our water as we drive.

    quote;
    3. Tyres: abrasion while driving
    Tyres get eroded when used. The particles are formed from the outer parts of the tyre and consist of a matrix of synthetic polymers, namely Styrene Butadiene Rubber (approximately 60%), in a mix with natural rubber and many other additives (Sundt et al., 2014).

    Tyre dust will then either be spread by the wind or washed off the road by rain. In this study, losses of synthetic rubber are considered but losses of natural rubber are not.

    There is no reliable information on the transfer of microplastics from tyres to the world’s oceans. Both Norwegian and Swedish researchers have pointed out that a large fraction of particles found in the sea
    seem to originate from car tyres (Essel et al., 2015; Sundt et al., 2014).
    End.

    Here now is my submission to solve the transport issue;

    We must now use electric powered locomotives and trains with ‘solar panels on every canopy and roof space of every wagon/carridge’; – for ‘free clean energy with no carbon emmissions’.

    ‘This also is simple physics that the Government still cant seem to grasp.’
