Pretty keen to explore solutions to climate change that involve emissions reduction. Everything else is another form of denial.

As a naturalized citizen, perhaps John Oliver better understands that our freedoms and protections must not be stolen by the Felon In Chief. Too many take them for granted.

Trump’s Truth Social posts make no sense – what do they say about his mentality? The president’s little used social media platform offers him a forum for his nonstop haranguing and score-settling

Trump’s posts broadly fit into three categories: attacking perceived foes, reposting praise and posting no-context images or videos of himself, like an elderly relative in a family group chat.

Weird! The report just out from Ministry for the Environment shows that farmers are still destroying out country. I know who I trust. And it's not the wankers pocketing cash at everyone else's expense!

New Zealand's environment report card is alarming The Government’s three-yearly environment report card, Our Environment 2025, documents a rapid and alarming decline of nature in Aotearoa.

"Our Environment 2025 report documents an alarming decline of nature in Aotearoa, driven by activities such as industrial dairying and fishing and highlights the desperate need for strong Govt regulation to protect nature from more harm." - Russel Norman

Just to add some context here, New Zealand dairy farmers import TWO MILLION TONNES of rainforest destroying palm kernel expeller each year and send $400 MILLION to support the palm kernel industry to kill endangered orangutans!

Mildly amusing: this Aussie dude got fed up with people parking in his driveway so he installed a motion-activated sprinkler.

NZ's climate credentials on the line in 2025 In February alone, New Zealand will set a new Paris emissions target and repeal a ban on offshore oil and gas exploration, Marc Daalder reports.

Two key events in February will set the direction of New Zealand’s clean, green reputation for the rest of the year – and perhaps even many years to come.

Over on the other place, @marcdaalder.bsky.social writes, β€œDuring the #Covid19 pandemic, New Zealand students lost fewer days of school than kids in almost any other country – including Sweden – the Royal Commission found.”

Maybe the Crown is waiting for some help from us to make his name know so that continuing name suppression appeals are pointless?
