A friend who had just spent a weekend at The Mount said it was so built over it was unrecognizable – we are destroying New Zealand with bad planning and poor design. Bad taste and casual disregard for environmental quality reigns. It doesn’t need to be like this. We can do better. Queenstown/Wanaka “development” is a prime case … more and more planes and helicopters. Tourists come to get away from all this stuff. Not only are we destroying our Wilderness (no, it is not a matter of “use it or lose it” as Jim Mora’s Afternoon programme suggested last week on RNZ) we don’t appreciate that Wilderness thrives on disuse and certainly on a lack of flights overhead when using our so-called “great walks” … as two Dutch trampers said to me on the Milford, this is why they came to NZ (and this was mid 80s). Nowhere in Europe is free of overhead planes and noise and “development”. We need to take heed before it is too late!
If I make a donation will I get into the city in less time? Quite happy if that is the case.
