Kerre Woodham was moderating a panel yesterday about environmental issues. The panel was at The Packaging forum which is all of the people involved in packaging; the consumers, the marketers, the creators, the recyclers.

Jerome Wenzlick: Future Post founder on turning plastic bags into fence posts

Inflation's officially higher than it's supposed to be. 

Latest Stats NZ data shows inflation's reached 3.1% – up from 3% at the last update three months ago. 

That's above the Reserve Bank's target range of 1 to 3%. 

The Herald's Liam Dann told John MacDonald it's also well above the Reserve Bank's forecast of 2.7%. 

He says there were hopes inflation was starting to fall again, so to see a rise like this isn't good at face value.

A source has told the Herald as many as nine people are potentially trapped. 

Herald Senior Investigative Reporter Michael Morrah is on the scene and told John McDonald there's a huge amount of activity. 

He says the disaster identification team, search and rescue team, and sniffer dogs are working through the debris.

People still aren't accounted for in Mount Maunganui's Beachside Holiday Park after a landslide roared into the campsite at the base of the mountain at about 9.30 this morning.  

Images show a caravan on its side inside the nearby the hot pools.  

Newstalk ZB Sport reporter Brian Kelly says about 30 police cars have arrived – the most he's seen in the town.   

He says there’s a couple of helicopters, seven or eight fire engines, and a digger on scene, and the only comment he’s gotten is from a police officer who was sprinting past, saying the slip is bad. 

The torrential rain that's lashed the North Island's east coast has caused flooding, slips, and road closures.
