How can you run a piece on NZ's covid response and not mention that it saved tens of thousands of lives and has been praised around the world? Both of those are true and excluding them misses a vital part of the story and of NZ's covid response

And, to make it worse, the offending piece is labeled 'premium' and sits behind the Herald's paywall. What does that say about the rest of their 'premium content'? Not a great look

The New Zealand Herald’s publisher NZME says it should have employed more “journalistic rigour” with artificial intelligence tools to create an editorial that appeared in the Weekend Herald, online and in regional papers recently https://t.co/Sp5iuOwgin

The Ancient Egyptians insulated their homes and sometimes it feels like NZ is still playing catchup. This is a step so backwards from @ChrisPenknz it's testing the time space continuum (great story by @eloise_gibson tho)

The green economy is a 'mega-force' says the
@LSEGplc and has delivered the 2nd best financial performance of any sector over the last decade. Only the tech industry has generated higher than the 198% returns of the green sector

Great to see our work recognised among the top climate stories of the year by @CoveringClimate, with one judge saying our reporting on COP28 "might have been the most impactful story of 2023."

It’s hard to know where to start with Shane Jones’ announced war on nature today. He has literally taken this mining strategy from the lobby group Straterra’s Briefing to Incoming Ministers. No original thoughts of his own.
The capture is clear.

I just confronted the CEO of @equinor and it’s majority shareholder, the Norwegian government, at their AGM.

The people in this room are responsible for the UK’s biggest undeveloped oil field - Rosebank.

We are no longer pleading. We will #StopRosebank

“To big time partners at consulting firms up and down NZ: thank you very much but your money is going away and we’re giving it to hardworking families who deserve it” Luxon said. “Talking about it gets you a headline but only doing it makes a difference”

Seafood industry donors are lobbying Shane Jones over wine and oysters, at a Nelson restaurant tonight. There are 'conflict of interest’ criticisms that the new minister is putting commercial interests ahead of the environment. My article at @NewsroomNZ. https://t.co/C7AC3ZVYck

I still don't think people realise how quickly renewable energy is expanding around the world

🇪🇺New renewables built over the past 5yrs were enough to power the entire EU
🇺🇸🇨🇦New renewables expected in the next 5yrs wld be enough to power the US & Canada

We changed the game @emirates stadium this morning! We want the Gunners free from Fossil Fuels & for Sultan Al Jaber to deliver a phaseout deal. No football on a dead planet! @COP28_UAE #cop28 #HoldtheLine https://t.co/yoNuKtPLPY

Breaking: Oh to be a Gooner free from Fossil Fuels!!! That’s why we outfoxed security & rose like salmon to dress our idols, Tony & Thierry. Sultan Al Jaber @COP28_UAE your deal is a #fail if it doesn’t call time on Oil&Gas #COP28UAE #COP28 #HoldTheLine

This great expose shows the shocking disparity between the finely crafted PR words at #COP28 about food, and the reality for workers in the region
