Why not spend $2.7b on solar & batteries instead? Govt to pay up to $180m/year or $2.7b over 15 years to lease LNG re-gasification plant, paid for by $15-$30 'levy' per household per year. That $2.7b would build four Benmore Dams worth of electricity

The Govt claims to be pro-market yet: $200m subsidy for oil exploration; Uncapped subsidies to decommission old oil fields; $1billion subsidy for LNG imports; Fonterra faces zero price for emissions under ETS. There is a pattern here. They are using the state to support and subsidise pollution.

anyone want to join my Board of Peace?

thanks for all the nitrate pollution @fonterranz.bsky.social

‘Soil is more important than oil’: inside the perennial grain revolution Scientists in Kansas believe Kernza could cut emissions, restore degraded soils and reshape the future of agriculture

perennial grains could try and save monoculture farming, but it could be more important as part of polycultures www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Hoiho, the yellow eyed penguin, are a survivor - considered by some scientists to be the most ancient of all living penguin species.

🧵 1/7

I never met a hoiho but I would like the chance one day - if the government banned commercial set nets in hoiho habitat it would also protect other species and the whole ecosystem

yep they have the target but no arrows!

People of the world vs COP30 - Greenpeace Aotearoa Outside the official negotiations COP30 international climate talks there are multitudes of people speaking up for a just climate future.

from the outside #COP30 seems like a hopeless talk fest - but on the ground it's colourful, diverse, pulsating and powerful www.greenpeace.org/aotearoa/sto...

just a vague guide! I don't think national voters want increased poverty and ecological degradation either

if we can remember who we want to be - and then remind others that's who they want to be too

The fuel of ‘last resort’: How imported gas became New Zealand’s first choice It's expensive, vulnerable to price shocks and terrible for the planet. So why are we importing gas?

Cartoon. Title: COP30: NZ'S GUTTING ITS OWN CLIMATE PACT. Two panels. First a not so great caricature of Todd Muller (hey, it's been a long time since I had to draw him lol) he's standing holding a report that says Framework he's patting James Shaws shoulder kindly saying "Nice work!". James Shaw (again not a great caricature but at least it kinda looks like him) holding the earth in his hands says back, "Something we agree on!" At the bottom it says - 2019 Bi-partisan agreement. The 2nd panel Simon Watts is leaning back and tripping over what could be the opposition leader Chris Hipkins (he's dropped the earth and it's slow motioning towards the ground where is smashes. Simon is saying to him, "HA! HA! Not anymore!" And under that panel it says, 2025 Bye bye bi-partisan.

Today COP30 starts in Brazil... I can't list all the things this coalition has gutted from the environmental plans.

A sad day for all...

'Embarrassing’: International climate expert at COP30 scorns NZ’s methane target A veteran climate scientist says it's "unbelievable" that New Zealand has gone to the annual climate summit with a weaker target as global temperatures continue to rise.

NZ Climate Change Minister Simon Watts is going to COP30 to sell our new embarrassing climate ambition on the world stage

Australia was once the gold standard for gun safety. Experts say it’s losing control Gun numbers have rapidly increased, 3D-printed firearms are routinely seized by police and one state is on the verge of enshrining a ‘right to hunt’ in law

relevant to Aotearoa - the gun lobby here has been working hard here to block a gun register which could track firearms www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

What happens when a Fossil Fuel CEO calls up WINZ, versus when an everyday NZ'er finally gets through after spending 3 days on hold?

This Government has cooked the books. Instead of helping out as the cost of living bites, they're handing cash straight over to billion dollar oil companies.

imagine they had a big party last week

do we all get to visit the FBI office for advice on wars and corporate colonisation? #nzpol
