Here's Marc's graph showing the climate impact of the methane target chance equates almost to Australia's net emissions last year.

Incredible scenes from Antsiferov Island, with sea lions escaping into the water and away from a landslide after the earthquake.

Seems to me if a 7-year old is able to write a submission well enough that a councillor can't tell whether or not its written by an adult - then good on them, and no reason why it shouldn't be considered!

I don't want to live in a society where our children get no say in the future they'll inherit.

The story is also looking bad for indigenous marine species.

Over three quarters of our freshwater fish (and >65% of freshwater manu/birds) are at risk of extinction.

Meanwhile, dairying accounts for around a quarter of emissions, but well under 5% of GDP

We can't keep farming this way. It doesn't make economic or ecological sense.

You can see from this Stats NZ table how bad our nitrogen dioxide air pollution is - red is over the WHO safe guideline.
Almost all nitrogen dioxide comes from burning fossil fuels.

Air pollution is responsible for one in ten deaths in this country,

Milford Asset Management justifies their increasing investment in fossil fuel expansion by claiming Shell is transitioning for the future, and even believing in fairytale-style science fiction like carbon capture.

There's no way in hell I'd trust them with my Kiwisaver savings!

Unbelievable. @davidseymour1.bsky.social is pretending his land rover antics were about...children with heart disease?

Seymour's schemes are nothing more than Trumpian attempts to dominate the news cycle and pretend to be anti-establishment when he actually represents his elite ultra-rich donors.

There are some similarities

Yes - this is an actual US department of Justice letter...

A memo from Trump’s budget office on tue ordered a complete freeze on “all federal financial assistance,” including "green new deal social engineering policies".

But yesterday, after massive public outcry, another memo went out rescinding that former memo. Trump can be beaten.

@taxpayersunion.bsky.social have zero faith in NZers, saying we should be more like Australia & more like America & more like the UK & more like Singapore & more like Ireland.

It's not the kiwi way. When we follow others we feel small. When we do it our way, we change the course of history.
