In the debate on how to pay for the impact of climate-change-amplified flooding of houses, let’s remember that Luxon is fast tracking new houses on a floodplain in Auckland, by a company whose director donated heavily to National. rnz.co.nz/news/national/… rnz.co.nz/news/in-depth/…

If Earth’s age was compressed into a single year, modern humans do not arrive until approximately 11:36 pm on December 31st. Only a terrorist could do so much damage in such little time. open.substack.com/pub/georgetsak…

My son was 1 when leaders posed for the cameras & pledged to keep temperatures BELOW the ‘safe level’ of 1.5C. He was 10 when the Earth spent an entire year ABOVE 1.5C. We’re on track for 4C within his lifetime. Our children are being betrayed & their futures obliterated.

The fact of the matter is that even in a best case scenario now, young people growing up today are going to endure a far more dangerous and severely degraded planet. They will never forgive us. They will curse their parents’ generation for what we did not stop.

As long as this planet continues to be run as a for-profit business rather than a self-regulating, all-inclusive socialist commune of 10 million species, everything on Earth will end up in a bonfire. open.substack.com/pub/georgetsak…

“The only way we can implement degrowth is if we demolish convoluted value chains, eliminate all middlemen, and democratize profit so that the only ventures which thrive are the ones which benefit society and the planet as a whole – not the ones destroying it” open.substack.com/pub/georgetsak…

I will forever be haunted by this footage. Trawling has only been filmed underwater a few times in documentary history, and never with such clarity. What’s so heart-rending about these shots is watching how the animals don’t just get swept up — they swim for their lives.

Irreversible unsurvivable warming: 1.5-1.75°C by 2024-2026 1.75-2°C by 2029-2031 2-2.25°C by 2034-2036 Time's up. Rethink human systems now to protect species and everyone while it's still too late. 🧵

NZ is one of the worst culprits in this abhorrent practice. NZ is the only country still bottom trawling in international waters of the South Pacific where they still target coral ancient forests seamounts habitats. #BanBottomTrawling #OceanFilm
