What will happen to all the animals and birds?

Courtney from Loburn

Hi everyone,

This is just an observation and not a challenge, after reading the comments on the Poll for Daylight Saving.

If we no longer eat meat of any kind, drink animal milk or use any of the bi products of animal milk -

What will happen to the animals who supply all of this?

Farmers of all kinds can't and, I expect, won't want to breed, keep, house, whatever they do at the moment, any of these non-productive animals and birds.

So ........

What is going to happen to all the cows, sheep, pigs, deer, chickens, turkeys, ducks etc etc?

Do we just wipe out all of the above?

We can't set them free. There won't be enough land because I expect farmers will have to go back to growing grain etc.

Is there a logical, calm, level-headed, answer to all of this?

Because the next thing may be that the grain we eat is full of chemicals and will also cause many illnesses and death via diseases.

Will people then start arguing for the grain to be monitored or whatever?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

Poll: Would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? 🌿🐦

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Canterbury, you have a hidden treasure right on your doorstep ... though it does come with a 1.5-hour walk up the stunning Rakaia Gorge Walkway.

Along the trail you’ll find The Fantail Shop showcasing small artworks by local artisans. Even better, every purchase supports the Fantail Trust, helping protect and restore biodiversity on the north bank of the gorge.

So we’re curious: would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? (And for local biodiversity, of course 🌿)
