New Zealand is shrinking and washing away into the sea.
Land is at a premium.

AIMLESS EXTENTION OF KNOWLEDGE HOWEVER, WHICH IS WHAT I THINK YOU REALLY MEAN BY THE TERM 'CURIOSITY', IS MERELY INEFFICIENCY. I AM DESIGNED TO AVOID INEFFICIENCY.

Looks like it for New Zealand. The Quakes shake it all loose and the Rain washes it away.

Having travelled a lot around New Zealand over many years.
That sort of thing is very common. If you look at the soil, it isn't very solid.

Apparently, the same thing happened in 1985.

NZ has a maritime climate.

Occasionally freak storms cause floods.

On a historical note, as recorded in religious texts of all world religions, catastrophic and society-destroying floods have occurred. Were they examples of ancient climate change?


Frank says they're not to be taken literally.


Does he?


Yes, he does.

    States of emergency declared for Auckland and the Waitomo District, with Waitomo's lifted at 9.37am today.
    Four people have died - two in Wairau Valley on the North Shore one in Remuera, and one in Onewhero.
    At least 5000 Auckland properties being assessed for flood or landslide damage. Here's where to get help. 40 homes have been red stickered on Monday.
    Travellers warned not to go to Auckland International Airport unless their flight is confirmed.
    Here's where to get help if you've been affected by the flooding and evacuations in Auckland.
    Friday’s storm was Auckland's “wettest day on record”.
    A number of road closures are in place across the North Island.
    Auckland's tap water is safe to drink, emergency management says. Aucklanders have been urged not to swim at any beaches due to contamination.
    Only call 111 if your life is in danger, Fire and Emergency NZ warns.
