Interestingly that article starts with a description of appallingly bad safety standards at a major petrochem site in the 1960 s. Yet remarkably everything has changed in the 50 years since; the events he describes are pretty much unthinkable in a developed country today.
In particular:
One day, Sherman was standing in a room, leaning over a large pipe to check a filter, when an operator in a distant control room mistakenly turned a knob, sending hot, almond-smelling, liquid chlorinated hydrocarbons coursing through the pipe, drenching him
I worked for decades in that control room, always aware that I could kill or main with a bad or unlucky decision. Yet the technology advanced dramatically, giving us tools and platforms that properly implemented, making incidents like the above orders of magnitude less likely. Organisations soon realised that investing in safety tech actually saved them cash, and in the past decade virtually eve ....

Letter of the week: Larry Mitchell, Rothesay Bay.
The (Weekend Herald, January 16) reports the plan to raise $106m rates rise . to clean up beaches .
Additional rates such as are proposed, would have been totally unnecessary
if Auckland Council had followed its own rules and policies relating to the proper application-expenditure of its wastewater funding reserves.
Included in our rates bills going back almost 20 years, ratepayers have already been billed and have paid in advance the huge sums set aside for wastewater renewals. These funds had been paid, collected and reserved for the works that now need to be completed . to keep sewerage off our city beaches. ....

Invercargill and Dunedin have been closed by floods once a decade or so.
Graeme 1.1.1
Large parts of Dunedin are below mean sea level, some around a metre. Invercargill is just above, but close enough that a flood combined with a high tide makes things pretty wet. Both suffer from being built on very weak ground, especially Invercargill, so both are never going to be more than they are now and unlikely to get much future investment.
It s not only airports that are at risk from sea level rise. The State Highway and railway going past Dunedin Airport are only slightly higher and just as at risk in many other places. ....

When the government proposed declaring a climate emergency in December last year, Jacinda Ardern said this,
This declaration is an acknowledgment of the next generation: an acknowledgment of the burden that they will carry if we do not get this right and if we do not take action now. When I visit schools, when I read children’s letters, I’m often struck by how deeply personal the climate crisis is to them. We cannot underestimate a generation, full of angst and anxiety over the reality of climate change for them and their generation. And it is up to us to make sure that we demonstrate there is a pathway, there is a plan for action, and there is a reason for hope. For them, it is instinctual. It is tangible. It is real. It is about the country they will inherit and it’s about the burden of debt they will inherit u ....
