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: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

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?
