Quotes

...While she’s happy to leave the climate change debate to the scientists, the decision to go for carboNZero has been "a no brainer", Ms Nelley says. "If the majority of scientists and our government are right and global warming is taking place, then every day is urgent and I would hate to have to explain to my grandchildren that we had the opportunity yet did nothing. If the sceptics turn outout to be right, then in 20 years’ time we will simply have a better planet for our grandchildren to inherit."
'Red vs. Blue' uses graphics engines from Microsoft's 'Halo' games to create episodes of the show. "We have become a staple of the Internet video scene" says Burns
"Well my dad is Tongan and my mum is English, so we grew up in Auckland City, but we had a very prevalent Tongan upbringing."
