Waitangi 2025 #ToituTeTiriti

I think it genuinely might send me mad to hear DEI blamed for everything by men who have received their own version of affirmative action

We used to all hold our breath hoping a shooter wasn’t a Muslim or a trans person. Now we gotta worry if the air traffic controller was Black?! Do you see how far they have moved the window?

Who was brave enough to look into the very face of Empire and speak on behalf of the oppressed? A WOMAN!!! Women lead by using their power to advocate for the marginalized.

We need a radically different approach to health. We might have a new Minister of Health, but the same destructive approach remains...a refusal to adequately fund health services, unsafe staffing levels, broken-down health infrastructure, and general frustration... open.substack.com/pub/drbex/p/...

I mean, contender to 2025 AoNZ headline of the year? #NZPol

A reminder that Los Angeles had its hottest summer in history last year. Southern California has received just 2% of "normal" rainfall during the current "rainy" season. These fires are a direct result of a warming & drying atmosphere caused by burning fossil fuels. We are in a climate emergency.

ABC, NBC & CBS dedicated about 16 minutes of airtime last night to the California wildfires without once mentioning climate change. Since the news failed do it's job, here's a short summary of the role of climate change and wildfire risk: www.noaa.gov/noaa-wildfir...

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

Winter tootsies!

Snares are still used across England despite bans in Scotland & Wales. These cruel traps kill 1.7M+ animals yearly, often targeting foxes & badgers. Protect The Wild is calling for a full UK-wide ban. Share if you agree it’s time to end this suffering!
