It wont be long before all of the wildlife in NZ will consist of cats and dogs and so many people will be happy. - National Cat Act not a priority for government

It’s brilliant to get this positive news -to help balance the Neoliberal horrors happening both here & overseas. I’m very keen to do what I can to share this widely- & encourage more.

We have been living comfortably off-grid for 24 years now, dove a Prius for 9 years, then an EV (BEV) for 12 years - running our house, farm & car on solar & wind. I can’t imagine what we’ve saved with 24 years of no power bills, & 12 years of no petrol, running in & out of town.

Switching to 100% renewable energy asap is a no brainer! Thank you 🍃🌹🌿

Hope? No, we don't need hope - we need anger, indeed we need fury. The sort of anger that inspired the French revolution, the Russian revolution. The anger that threw Churchill out of Parliament, immediately after WWII, because ordinary servicemen were so furious at the way he'd gambled with, and wasted their lives.

Since WWII, the neo-liberal, capitalist system, has got a lot better at bribing and deluding most people. We need to throw out this ludicrously wealthy elite - as obscenely wealthy as the French aristocracy - not just for the planet, but for ourselves, too; and win our lives back.

If you think I'm talking nonsense - just look at the USAnian election. A disgustingly wealthy, criminal, ignorant, bigoted sexual predator is about to become president of the most powerful country on the planet. Hops is not going to counteract this thug and those who are using him. The only thing that will, is people fighting back, Gaia help us all.
