A Christmas message

Alison (elle) from Broomfield - Hei Hei

To those of faith whatever you call your God

It matters not if you worship each week
If you have not kindness in your heart
If your actions are not like the words that you speak
when you are talking to God.

If you have kindness in your heart
Remember the pet in your care
Does your treatment of it
Match the words that you speak
when you are talking to God.

Do you banish your pet
into the street
and never let it inside
Come rain and snow
where does it go?
When it's cold wet and alone.

Do you leave it some food
but never stay to check
if it is your one that eats
or is it stolen by pests
Or others who are also
finding their own way
because nobody bothered
to care for them today.

We have pets for which to care
the measure of us Is the condition of them
and we will be judged by the way that we share
the kindness in our hearts.

So... It matters not if you worship each week
If you have not kindness in your heart
If your actions are not like the words that you speak
when you are talking to God.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? πŸ›»πŸš¨πŸš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature β€” and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
