Dumping of Bread in Creek at LaRosa Gardens in Green Bay
To the inconsiderate person who dumped the moldy turkish bread in the creek at LaRosa Gardens Green Bay, instead of disposing of it in your weekly rubbish collection like everyone else does, shame on you !!! .
Not only does this pollute the water in the creek but Pukeko & their chicks as well Ducks with their ducklings were eating it and this is how they become very ill with Botulisum & this is a death sentence for them as Birdcare Aotearoa no longer take in or treat sick ducks anymore & the majority of vets only offer euthanasia.
If you want to dump you moldy bread at least put in the bin at parks and reserves, don't throw it on the ground or in the water where animals can eat it !!!

Even Australians get it - so why not Kiwis???
“Ten years ago, if a heatwave as intense as last week’s record-breaker had hit the east coast, Australia’s power supply may well have buckled. But this time, the system largely operated as we needed, despite some outages.
On Australia’s main grid last quarter, renewables and energy storage contributed more than 50% of supplied electricity for the first time, while wholesale power prices were more than 40% lower than a year earlier.
[…] shifting demand from gas and coal for power and petrol for cars is likely to deliver significantly lower energy bills for households.
Last quarter, wind generation was up almost 30%, grid solar 15% and grid-scale batteries almost tripled their output. Gas generation fell 27% to its lowest level for a quarter century, while coal fell 4.6% to its lowest quarterly level ever.
Gas has long been the most expensive way to produce power. Gas peaking plants tend to fire up only when supply struggles to meet demand and power prices soar. Less demand for gas has flowed through to lower wholesale prices.”

If even Australians see the benefit of solar - then why is NZ actively boycotting solar uptake? The increased line rental for electricity was done to make solar less competitive and prevent cost per kWh to rise even more than it did - and electricity costs are expected to rise even more. Especially as National favours gas - which is the most expensive form of generating electricity. Which in turn will accelerate Climate Change, as if New Zealand didn’t have enough problems with droughts, floods, slips, etc. already.

If a zookeeper had 100 pairs of animals in her zoo, and two pairs of babies are born for each one of the original animals, then (sadly) 23 animals don’t survive, how many animals do you have left in total?
