Some people today celebrated giant profits made selling oil, while others grieved the deaths of loved ones who died fighting the fires those profits caused.

It’s more sickening when you consider that they always knew this would be the result, hid the truth and did it anyway.

The #ClimateCrisis is a crime.

Make it make sense. As the world burns in the oil industry's #ClimateCrisis, the Luxon government is celebrating a (futile) new search for fuel to throw on the fires.

We know that we can't afford to burn even the known oil reserves, so searching for more is reckless and stupid climate denial.

Real fox and henhouse vibes with this.

The important point is managing the impact on conservation land, not making more fun for hunters.

Hunters in charge are more likely to just increase numbers of pest species right?

That will only happen more just to keep up an easy kill. Evidence provided by trail cam. h...

Get this.

While Luxon’s lot is commissioning a billion dollar LNG terminal to avoid electricity shortages, they’ve also signed off a 1GW AI data centre twice as power-hungry as the Tiwai Point smelter.

We need more solar and wind generation, not more fossil fuels and surveillance infrastructure.

Make it make sense!

This is OBSCENE.

Australia’s 178 billionaires are $25.7bn richer than last year, while 3.7 million Australians live in poverty

With a faor tax system we could lift everyone out of poverty and start building a more resilient society.

BREAKING

The NZ government has finally admitted that there is no future in fossil fuels.

In the #Budget2026 they’ve announced a scheme to assist businesses to transition away from fossil gas.

Assume they will now cancel the costly and doomed LNG import terminal idea?
