It’s OK to build on the coast when…

For the last 100 years the sea level in Auckland has been rising at 1.55mm per year according to Statistics NZ and the tide gauge at Devonport and it is reasonable to assume that it will continue at that rate for the next 100 years. So by the year 2100 it should rise another 125mm or 5 inches.
Houses (not the land) should ideally be 500mm above the highest tides.
Please note that part of Tamaki Drive has sunk and is going to be raised to the correct level. It is scaremongering and a lie to post pictures of the flooded Tamaki Drive saying that is due to climate change.

I haven’t changed my diet to eat less red meat

I eat a small amount of meat every day. Eating meat is essential for good nutrition.
It is quite wrong to say that meat causes climate change, so don't say it.
NZ produces and exports a huge amount of meat, and that needs to continue.

I know what my carbon footprint is

Nobody needs to know their carbon footprint. The 0.041% of carbon dioxide in the air (and 0.00018% of methane) are NOT changing the climate in any measurable way. If you think otherwise, show me the data.
There are 3000 billion tons of carbon in the air already, and it is being absorbed by the ocean to be added to the 100 million billion tons of carbon in limestone and sediments.
Even million of tons of carbon are negligible compared with these figures.

No - climate change IS NOT being communicated effectively

You say "the IPCC reported that humanity has only 12 years to prevent catastrophic climate change by limiting greenhouse gas emissions"
That is a lie put out by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who then said "you'd have to have the intelligence of a sea sponge to think it's literal."
The Council should stop trusting what the IPCC says. Carbon dioxide is not at all a problem. Do not spend my ratepayer funds on nonsense science.
By all means build a few sea walls in Missions Bay etc, but do nothing else.

No to a news item on climate change everyday

The climate is changing very very slowly. The temperature is going up by under 0.01 degree each year. The sea level is going up by 1.6mm each year. Look at NIWA data to confirm that.
Nothing much is happening with the climate. There is no emergency.
