Climate Change
While the wars between Ukarine/Russia & Gaza/Israel continue, I have heard no leaders/polititions etc say a word about how this sets the earth back years on any efforts to stop this. It seems like we are wasting time with agreements on lowering emissions, carbon emissions, greenhouse gas, etc, etc, etc. Organisations like UN can't agree on anything. The 1997 Kyoto Protocol agreement, the Paris agreement, in fact all Climate change agreements are useless and the planet has been set back 100's of years while these senseless countries hammer each other into the ground destroying humanity. Has anyone heard from any climate scientists recently? The only people more silent on the subject are those that did not believe. It seems to me that no one gives a dam any more.
Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
