Russel Norman visits the Waihou River

Green Party co-leader Russel Norman takes a trip down the Waihou River - from the Blue Spring in its headwaters, where 60% of NZ's bottled water comes from, to Turua where the river is polluted and unsafe for swimming.



There's a growing gap between the brand NZ uses to portray itself and the reality of our waterways.

The Green Party thinks rivers should be clean enough to swim in.
