I find whenever you do this, it’s catchy and everyone else says “thank you driver” too. Start the trend on your bus every day. 💚

Chairing the Planning, Environment and Parks Committee is lot of work and on days like today, all the effort is worth it. We just passed the Future Development Strategy for Auckland. 18 votes in favour. 3 opposed and 1 abstention. A brief🧵 Or link: ourauckland.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/news/2023/11/a…

I woke up in #Houston this morning to an excessive heat watch & power outages. The city has activated cooling centers, reminding us to stay hydrated & safe. The #climatecrisis is real & impacting us daily. Now more than ever, we need to fight #climatechange.
