On today's REX Daily Podcast, Dom talks with anthropologist Dame Anne Salmond about the political phenomena of using environmental issues to sow division in the electorate, how to overcome this type of 'pernicious polarisation' and the work that's been undertaken at her property, Waikereru Ecosanctuary... And he talks with Federated Farmers Gisborne/Wairoa President Charlie Reynolds about the recent adverse weather, the current situation facing the region and what can be done to alleviate the impact of similar events in the future.
