Concerns raised by experts - grounded in evidence-based decision-making and predicated on the Govt’s own data - deserve a considered response, not dismissive name calling. Kiwis deserve better. Also: call me a banshee again and I’ll tell you where to go. #waronnature #nzpol

There’s a wonderful piece by @avancenz in today’s Sunday Star Times… In which our Minister of Oceans and Fisheries refers to conservation groups in Aotearoa as “green politburo banshees.” Cool. Very mature. Chief Banshee here, reporting for duty 🫡 #nzpol @WWFNewZealand
Given that the sole predator of rāpoka / New Zealand sea lions is actually great white sharks (not killer whales), I’m afraid the Minister is mistaken… Perhaps DOC could amend the biology info page on rāpoka to include him as well, though? @IsobelEwing @mangonui08 @avancenz
“Humans don’t exist independently of other life on earth – we depend on it for our very survival.” Our CEO @KaylaKingdon writes for @TheSpinoffTV on why MPs should back a new Bill enshrining NZers’ right to a healthy environment into human rights law. thespinoff.co.nz/politics/10-04…
Creating a Rangitāhua Kermadec Ocean Sanctuary is critical to our efforts to halt nature loss and mitigate climate change - the twin crises of our time. It’s the latest affront in the Govt’s shameful and shortsighted war on nature. #waronnature #nzpol tkr.ro/e/F3RMdiFbF6V6…
These were some of Rod's last written words. ''We, along with the rest of humankind, must figure out how to achieve an utterly unprecedent speed of change, scale of change and complexity of change. Everything, everywhere, all at once – to borrow from the multiverse film that…
Indisputably, Rod Oram was one of Aotearoa’s leading voices on #climatechange and #nature loss. Our public discourse on these twin existential crises will be so much poorer without him. Moe mai rā e te rangatira, we will miss you dearly. @WWFNewZealand

NZ’s leading environment groups are *finally* meeting the Minister of Oceans and Fisheries, @shanejonesmp, at 5pm today at the Beehive. We’d love your ideas on what to ask him… #waronnature 🌿🐌☠️ @naturevision @RusselNorman @WWFNewZealand @Forest_and_Bird @GreenpeaceNZ
This Government isn’t just standing idly by as our threatened native species creep towards #extinction - they seem intent on actively speeding the process up. 🌿🐌☠️#nzpol

Not the first to pick this up, but adding my voice because this is potentially concerning. The Government appears to be purporting to suspend legal obligations by press release without due process of law. If so, that’s unconstitutional. beehive.govt.nz/release/signif…
Novel idea: In light of this govt’s deplorable #waronnature, maybe we should set up a bootcamp for bad Ministers…? @naturevision @WWFNewZealand @RusselNorman #nzpol
The Government's claim that it carried out "extensive engagement" with environmental groups on its fast-track consenting regime is a "significant overstatement" says our CEO @KaylaKingdon via @HaydenDonnell @TheSpinoffTV thespinoff.co.nz/politics/14-03… #waronnature
“This Government isn’t idly sitting by while our native species creep towards extinction – they seem to be actively trying to speed up the process,” says our CEO @KaylaKingdon
“It’s staggering that the Government would even for a moment consider tearing up kiwi habitat, trashing a unique and threatened landscape, and pushing species that are in crisis further to the brink of extinction..." says @KaylaKingdon via @NewsroomNZ newsroom.co.nz/2024/02/28/the…
"Are we as a country prepared to watch that species go extinct?” Our CEO @KaylaKingdon spoke to @marcdaalder at @NewsroomNZ on why we need stronger rules to stop the Antipodean Albatross and other seabirds being caught in fishing nets as bycatch ⤵️ newsroom.co.nz/2024/02/23/ext…
Our CEO @KaylaKingdon spoke with @eloise_gibson at @radionz on why this Government's war on nature could put New Zealand's Free Trade Agreement with the UK at risk ⤵️ rnz.co.nz/news/national/…
“This ill-conceived legislation will pave the way for ministers to approve pet-projects without proper scrutiny and give private developers the green-light to wreak havoc on our environment," says our CEO @KaylaKingdon ⤵️ nzherald.co.nz/nz/environment…
Hugely disappointing to see the NZ Government appears to be turning its back on South Pacific ocean conservation. At the annual @sprfmo meeting beginning today NZ is set to push for harmful #bottomtrawling to continue. Read more ➡️ wwf.org.nz/news/oceans/nz…
Hugely disappointing to see NZ backtracking on its international commitments by abandoning plans to reduce bottom trawling in the South Pacific. This destructive fishing method harms vulnerable marine life and we must put an end to it. thepost.co.nz/politics/35015… @DeepSeaConserve
🆕 The latest draft of the #GlobalStocktake is out... and it's disastrous. It invites the continued use of planet wrecking fossil fuels. For a strong outcome at #COP28 and an end to the escalating climate crisis, it needs to change, says WWF's @FernandaVdeC.…

Very sad that the sanctuary has been scrapped. It was a brilliant proposal that would have created the worlds largest sanctuary, yet have a near zero impact on commercial fishing Government halts plan for Kermadec Ocean Sanctuary | RNZ News rnz.co.nz/news/political…
Important last line in @KiwiFarah's article: "Submissions to the bill close on 19 April. These submissions are open to the public. If the bill passes, the public will be unable to submit on individual projects" Make a submission, do it now (link below) rnz.co.nz/news/political…
The area in red is public conservation land where the fast-track bill will allow applications to mine - applications in which the public (& environmental NGOs) get ZERO say. The fast-track bill is a war on nature - and an assault on democracy. Oppose it: parliament.nz/en/pb/sc/make-….
"The bill, which has already had its first reading and is now going through the select committee process, means these four horsemen of the apocalypse will have the final decision over resource consents..." #FastTrackWrongTrack waikatotimes.co.nz/nz-news/350213…
“We are very concerned about the speed of implementation of this legislative agenda and the lack of adequate public consultation that has accompanied it. This demonstrates a lack of respect for democratic law-making processes and environmental protections” rnz.co.nz/national/progr…
Once you replace evidence based decision-making with political decision-making on individual projects it is only a matter of time before a developer pays a politician to get a project approved under the #WarOnNature fast-track political consenting process.
