Nitrate contamination of drinking water caused by the NZ dairy industry's overuse of synthetic nitrogen fertiliser produced by @RavensdownNZ & @BallanceNZ, + #ToomanyCows is putting people at risk of cancer. It's time to cut synthetic nitrogen fertiliser: https://t.co/U59lKqW1YI
This is truly shameful from the @NZGreens and the @jacindaardern Government - The government has joined the global methane pledge but it has exactly ZERO plans to actually match the 30 percent global reduction target. #TooManyCows#CutSyntheticFertiliser https://t.co/4ZztI95K7B

Just hanging w some friends in Wellington. Off the side of the Fertiliser Association building to be exact. We’re in a climate crisis and intensive dairy is our biggest climate polluter. Fertiliser is driving this crisis. The next government needs to phase it out stat.
This huge banner just unfurled at the @Fertiliser_Assn office has the names of the 30,000 ppl who have signed the petition calling for a phase-out of synthetic fertiliser. Synthetic fertiliser drives intensive dairying, NZ's biggest climate polluter. #TooManyCows#ClimateCrisis
