Kiwi, pulling the future forward & a climate subversive. The glass is always half full, usually of something red.

I am planning to walk 42km barefoot in 24 hours to raise money for the Relay for Life - powered by pies and sausage rolls! If you can spare a few dollars to support this good cause: https://t.co/hRCzfsPmRV #RelayForLifeNZ via @NZCancerSo

Exxon lies and people die.

This is huge. This is absolutely monumental. We just shut down an event honoring Exxon CEO Darren Woods. The whole room fled. We showed up & prevented this monster from uttering a word. We will resist him with all we've got. There is no choice.

It's not too late to be a climate activist - it will never be too late for that - but, sadly, it IS too late to "fix the climate" within business as usual

[Michael Daymond-King @MikeDKwine]

That, one could argue would require empathy on a global scale, clearly deeply lacking.

AGI may, by mistake or sheer luck, display such empathy.

It will be shut down immediately for doing so.

With talk of the dangers of #AGI, note that humans are smart enough to make food, water & housing for 8+ billion people.

Yet not smart enough to agree to distribute these resources across the planet.

Chris Luxon's new Govt puts New Zealand's celebrated oil and gas exploration ban under threat. Let's make it clear to the oil industry that they are not welcome here and will be resisted! Sign the open letter now to #ResistOil: https://t.co/neAu2Ssj49 via @greenpeacenz

Well done sir @ediramaal

Dear @EdiRamaal, today at the UNSC you showed the world how to correctly handle Russia, its lies, and its hypocrisy. I thank you for steering the Presidency in such a principled manner.

Al Gore, "I find it shocking, really disappointing, I think Rishi Sunak has done the wrong thing.. Fossil fuel companies have used their wealth to slow things down.. They're much better at capturing politicians than emissions.. You can tell when they've captured one"

"the lived reality" . Very much hope this lawsuit succeeds, and other Governors and other countries begin their own lawsuits to seek remedy.

[Climate Science Breakthrough @ClimateSciBreak]

The state of California is suing five major fossil fuel companies over their contribution to the climate crisis.

Just listen to these unflinching words by governor @GavinNewsom.

History in the making….

A core political lesson no-one learns.

[Nick @StrayDogNZ]

Good thing Labour didn't introduce a wealth tax, capital gains tax, cannabis legalisation or any other policy that may have led to significant change.

Wouldn't want to do something at the risk of being unpopular when you can simply do nothing and [checks notes] poll at 26.8% 🫠

Hi @NewWorld_Thordn , the decision to oppose the cycle lanes in your street prioritising me in my metal car over the safety of the kids in your area cycling to and from school has driven me to shop elsewhere. Today that cost you $345. Get on right side of history stop the review

Something has gone seriously wrong when we have supermarkets, banks and resource companies posting record profits while Australians face a cost-of-living crisis.

We need our politicians to have the courage to take on tough debates on tax reform.
