My comment: Ministers seemed unprepared for criticism over how to pay for liquid natural gas and then unable to salvage the narrative once the severity of the situation became apparent.

Today, the Government quietly released an amendment to its amendment to the Resource Management Act that will strip protections for water quality.
It is a conspicuous example of how far vested interests are controlling this Government. #freshwater

Speaking to reporters afterwards, Swarbrick said Brownlee had "now been explicit about the fact that he was the member who took personal offence at the statements that I made.." #NzPol
Paywall now lifted: My special report this morning is about how we spent generations strangling our rivers to make room for our homes and farms, only to find we've ended up supercharging their flows.
What do we do when we realise we've built a society in a riverbed?

This is magnificent work @marcdaalder.bsky.social

The legal definition of the 'River Bed' under the RMA is a disaster waiting to happen (oh that's right it did, repeatedly).
Did you know methane emissions from Fonterra and the global livestock industry are 80 times more potent than CO2?
It's time to take action. Let's pressure world leaders to regulate these industries and stop their destructive practices and growth.
Take action NOW: greenpeace.nz/b95joo

At the Denniston Rally today in Whakatu Nelson. Protesting at ANZ’s support of Bathurst Resources who want to open a huge open cast coal mine on the Denniston Plateau which would erase for all time its unique environment. We cannot let that happen. Too precious to mine.
Today on the Rainbow Warrior III, we commemorated the 40th anniversary of the sinking of Rainbow Warrior I and the death of photographer Fernando Pereira. Together with Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei, we held a dawn ceremony to reflect on that day, and to acknowledge the importance of a nuclear-free Pacific.
Worst Day to Best Day on the Greenpeace Seamounts Expedition as the team find signs of life after witnessing coral destruction.
We can't wait to share more with you when it's all gone through the proper scientific process.

Have you been following our Seamount Expedition?
The DropCam has been rolling, capturing deep sea images of seamounts, the life found there, and documenting any damage done by trawlers.
Greenpeace oceans campaigner Ellie Hooper is pretty excited.

Selective quotes create the false impression that debating treaty issues in a select committee will ever be balanced. And it presents a false binary. Interpreting Te Tiriti in a modern context is needed but not in this polarised manner.

Act is floundering. Don’t fall for their banal generalities.
Toitū te Tiriti
Excellent letter on the gaslighting attempt of the Treaty Principles Bill. Thanks to John Smyth.
Toitū te Tititi
We must expose what sits behind the Treaty Principles Bill: the drive for corporate exploration. And we must resist.
Our message should be simple: The Treaty protects ALL New Zealanders from corporate exploitation.
That challenge is from all parties in government. We must resist.
Toitū te Tiriti a poem
200,000 sign up to Stop the Treaty Principles Bill
42,000 chant Kill the Bill
What do we hear by way of response?
Silence from Luxon
Flippancy from Peters
Condescension from Seymour

We are stronger together
Together for Te Tiriti

Another great piece exposing the hypocrisy of the Act party, its cynical exploitation of division under the guise of unity.
It’s tosh and they know it.
Christchurch Press as far as I can see from the piece posted.
Kia ora everyone. I’m new to Bluesky. First post sent on the Treaty Principles Bill just now. Flowers from home garden to support the Hikoi.
Toitu te Tiriti!
Hugely helpful analysis of what is behind the Act party’s ahistorical intentionally misleading approach to the Treaty Principal’s Bill. It’s not about race or ethnicity, it’s about wealth. Thank you Donna Miles.
