The North Otago farmer and award-winning environmentalist talked about the recent Q&A Climate Change panel and also suggested that people should be FC (factually correct) rather than PC (politically correct).

Damien O'Connor:

The Minister of Agriculture talked about his bird's-eye view of the Canterbury flooding and what the government was doing to aid in the recovery.
