Vandals. This government are irresponsible vandals

So the more temperature increases, the more frequent flooding and slips will be. Emissions reductions are needed now but there are other steps that can be taken to identify vulnerable areas and improve reinforcement or move structures as appropriate.

Bloody hell, will the roof blow off???

Newsflash, sometimes people change jobs. Christ sakes!

Out in the garden trying to rig up some sort of brace support for little trees 😭

AI has really ruined this simple joy, animal videos. I can't believe any of it anymore 😭

The cognitive dissonance to have 'Paris agreement is destroying our lives' signs on farms the length of the South Island of NZ while we are experiencing fatal climate 1 in 1 year weather events again. I might take a chainsaw on the next Dunedin to ChCh trip - the fuckers don't have the right

The tragic loss of lives in NZ flooding events this week are climate change deaths. Media and govt are avoiding the topic. Leaders and commentators must acknowledge the emerging reality of ordinary summer rainstorms carrying volumes of water akin to tropical cyclones of previous decades.

Credit to Te Paati Māori here they've nailed this.

On the 7th of November the country will go to the polls. Let’s come together to get rid of this anti-worker Government and elect a new progressive government that is committed to delivering bold change for working people.

Climate change is not going anywhere and New Zealanders deserve a government that puts climate action, adaptation & strong emergency responses first.

Really a profound moment. If you're feeling rattled, no wonder 💚 Time of monsters for sure

The "culture wars" obsessed party in parliament is not the Greens, it's New Zealand First, who's members put forward bills to fine trans people for using public toilets while propping up a government that has presided over a worsening cost of living crisis and a rise in unemployment

"...and that's our focus right now" I chat more about this over at my Substack, which you can read for free: yeehawtheboys.substack.com/p/christophe...

WHAT

Have you thought about joining the Green Party this year? Or already a member, but not actively involved? In West Auckland? Come meet a few of us at the park 💚

Still mad about a family member telling me, that at Catholic School in NZ they learned all about Lent, giving sth up, but they never had Carnival before that? What in hell is that, is that Anglo Catholicism? Outraged 😠 If you didn't live it up at Carnival, you don't have to do Lent 🤞

Hashtag West is Best 💛

Oh nice, the helicopter, I was just trying to get to sleep 😑😑

*crying in Tamaki Makaurau*

Dream house! www.trademe.co.nz/a/property/r... Now I wonder what's wrong with it, slips, flooding, mould??

Western leaders who fail to criticise Trump's actions are undermining both the norms on which their countries' prosperity is based and their own standing to push back on Russian and Chinese bullying and expansionism.

The response to locked in managed decline of everything, the standstill of ambition, the cold extinguishing of hope. If you offer nothing, content with playing the fine margins of a decreasing voter turnout, eventually the reaction will strip the paint from the walls in its chemical ferocity.

Woop, here it is!! Nice to be inside

Yes please!! And hello, where are the middle aged and retired people - I see so many wonderful young people in the Green Party, but COME ON older people - you have time and money, come and get involved!! (There are some of course, but it's noticeable!!)

WHAT

I can’t believe how stupid everything is

Let me be explicit. If you hear anyone say replacing fossil fuels with renewables is going to be expensive, they're either misinformed, uninformed, or lying to you. Even leaving out the massive economic costs of #climate changes caused by burning fossil fuels, #renewables are cheaper now.

Bloody hell 😳

Wouldn't light rail also be great for the West

This roadside drug testing is such a worry for so many people. What in Earth is happening???

Such an increadible thread of an epic family journey across Australia, full of ecology, history, science and wonder. What a wonderful way to travel.

There’s always a chance everything will be fine. This is one of my favorite insane beliefs

Israel is still deliberately subjecting Palestinians to conditions designed to bring about their suffering and collective destruction. That’s the definition of genocide.

Well, hello. This is going to be interesting

This is the way

😄😄😄

How are we supposed to carry on with news like this

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

Warm homes are not aspirational. Affordable food, power and rent aren’t aspirational. Health and social services that centre health and people are not aspirational. These are not inspired ideas. They are basic, 101 hallmarks of a functioning country. Leadership that gets that *would* be inspiring.

#NZPol Just vote Green. This is such bullshit.

Love being governed by people with absolutely no principles or overarching theories other than 'Retain power for ourselves and rich get richer'

Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

This is a power grab. Shane Jones wants to reduce any hurdles - such as regional councils rejecting resource consents - to mining. Don't let them take our democratic rights away without any opposition. #nzpol www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360...

He's also banned te tino rangatiratanga messages. Suits and ties, which convey a political message of rich white people rule" are of course not banned.

Read the whole thread, fascinating and bad :(

A little boy just walked by, with bare feet, mud up his legs, a fishing rod and a sizeable fish in his hand? In Te Atatū? Is this ... wholesome???

This is just fucking embarrassing. In just 2 years they have destroyed our once impeccable reputation & made us the official dickhead nation of the world. 🌍🤦‍♀️ #nzpol #OneTermGovernment

No. More. Motorways ✊️
