Some ICE cars will be treasured for years. If yours isn’t one of them then plan to get $0 return. (Also TradeMe posts don’t show previews, which seems… odd) www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/car...

I learned from this (gift link) article on how Aussies changed their response to bush fires. “In crises like this, you can play politics, point fingers and resist reality, or you can choose safety” www.nytimes.com/2025/01/25/o...

Global average per capita emissions of fossil CO2 over the last 4 years were 4.6t/capita. Aotearoa New Zealand's per capita emissions in 2022 were 6.2t/capita, despite our high percentage of renewable electricity. #nzpol
