HELP STOP the 42,000 SATELLITES
STOP HIS 42,000 SATELLITES!
Elon Musk, billionaire, has sent up 120 of these Starlink satellite trains (cute names to impress us, eh?) and plans on sending up 60 more trains every 2 weeks, until he reaches 24,000.
They will outnumber the naked-eye stars.It It's only a matter of a few years before the sky as we know it — and as our ancestors have known it for millennia — will be irretrievably lost.
The night sky is one of the most inspirational views that our planet offers. Pondering the vastness of the universe provides inspiration to children, artists, scientists, and religious thinkers. The night sky is also an integral part of nature. For example, migrating birds navigate using the stars, which may be disrupted by these bright satellites swarming the sky . In addition, the satellites are already causing very serious damage to ground-based astronomy.
PLEASE sign this petition to SpaceX, Federal Communications Comm., & other companies planning satellite constellations. The signup is on the top right of this page:

Please pass this on to as many people as possible, if you agree...
What they currently look like in the sky (AARGH imagine the final result— every night..) :
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated

Earth Emotions Silent Auction
Monday 16th February - Monday 2nd March
Bid on a special collection of 20 unframed prints by local photographers from an exhibition called Earth Emotions.
Glenn Allbrecht's book, Earth Emotions, inspired Ann Wheatley, Emma Jane Hughes and Peter Kemp to create a local exhibition exploring the health of our soils, waters, forests, and people, with support from the Nelson Tasman Climate Forum and the Nelson City Council.
Forty-seven photographers responded to an open call, contributing over 100 images. A selection of these was exhibited at the Refinery Art Space.
The photographers have donated 20 exhibition prints to raise funds for the hospice.
