Notes

Happiness revolution: why wealth is no longer the secret to life satisfaction.The need to change to what is the most important outcome for most of us: our own happiness.
Davos downer: World Economic Forum, Davos. Pollution and greenhouse-gas emissions recognise no borders and every country owes it to every other country to help create solutions.
The dumbing-down of Kiwi 15-year-olds. The cost of NCEA has been huge, leading to sinking achievement levels. What will it take to make our kids star performers again?
Tragedy in paradise: Samoa and the devastating measles outbreak.
Clear and ever-present danger: Playwright Aroha Awarau. Beaten up as a child and an adult for being gay.
Adventure sports and mental well-being.
