Thanks Ellen for your efforts to give Future Proof readers an uplift alongside the grimmer news rolling in from environmental frontlines. Do hope the newsletter can be revived along with Spinoff's overall fortunes. All best wishes to you and the team
And I will very much miss this excellent newsletter, too. Kiakaha, Ellen. I hope The Spinoff's readership will respond generously. If everyone gave the price of one cup of coffee per month ...
Dear Ellen, you and your work are both amazing and it’s been a great joy to read. Remaining positive and aware is a tricky balance. Kia kaha and I hope you can return to this newsletter. I have joined up again to the Spin-off.
$300 billion. It sounds like a lot, but a small country like NZ will spend that sort of money without thinking about it, over a decade. It is beyond insulting to offer such a sum to compensate for the destruction of land, communities and livelihoods, the decimating of biodiversity, the salination of fresh water, the desertification of fertile land, in poor countries all over the world. Think how much it costs to build one "highway of National Importance", which will only add to the word of the planet. This is not cynicism, this is actually evil.
I’ll miss this newsletter! I hope it can return in future
You’ll be missed around the world.
Thanks for your work, Ellen. This household really enjoys your writing.
Sorry to see this end, and I hope you have other outlets to fund your writing. Plus I love the tui photo in your bluesky profile.
