In New Zealand we now have fishing competitions without fish because all the water from the rivers must be used for dairy farming.
Innovation.
Not.
Greenpeace alters Rakaia salmon statue, says ‘Fonterra killed the fish’. - Greenpeace Aotearoa […]
A familiar refrain, also heard -with stirring orchestral accompaniment - from the farmer bros and their #DirtyDairy
And we closed the year by bringing the #NitrateEmergency affecting rural communities' drinking water to Fonterra's shareholders, by dumping 2 metric tons of slime outside their headquarters minutes before their shareholder meeting.

Sorry for the facebook link but Shane Jones is furious about the slime. 🤣
Not even his portfolio but he couldn't resist a chance to moan about greenpeace. 🤷

What a great week for New Zealand in the international stage!
Two awards recognising the hard work our government doe to make everyone's lives worse, dirtier and more expensive.
First Fossil of the Day in Brazil #COP30 for our shameful back track on methane emissions […]
COP30 going as expected for New Zealand and its ecocidal, climate denialist government coalition. 😑
"The adoption of a 'no additional warming' target, rather than pursuing more ambitious reductions, was "an embarrassing and humiliating capture by industry", he said."
Embarrassing’ […]
Our documentary "Something in the Water" is now live online for everyone to watch! 🎞️
This is an important issue that everyone should be more informed about, make a pot of popcorn and give it a watch. 🍿
Something in the Water follows Greenpeace Freshwater Campaigner Will Appelbe through the […]
"Will reducing the herds stop the wind storms?"
-Not these ones mate, but it might help you survive the nightmare ones you'll be getting in 5-10 years time.

Local media is dropping the ball (again) by mostly failing to connect the extreme weather we've been experiencing to climate change, accelerated by methane and carbon emissions.
In NZ, the biggest source of pollution is agriculture and specifically the dairy industry, followed by transport […]
Privatise the profits ✅
Socialise the costs ✅
Imagine if we made the polluters pay. That way we reduce incentives for harmful activities AND have a pool of money to help those affected by climate disasters.
Instead our government is saying climate action is unnecessary, private profits are all […]
Screenshot of headline reading LIVE weather Aerial footage shows Waikato farmland under water. Picture shows a flooded farm from the air only treetops and a raised road poke out of the water.
Yesterday: "We're reducing our methane targets. Climate change is not our problem to solve. This is how we help our farmers."
Today:

FAR OUT! Never been more embarrassed to be a South Cantabrian - Thanks @guywilliamsguy.bsky.social for ripping the bloody band aid off. None of those people will be remotely embarrassed- but I am. Allan Hubbard has a lot to answer to - #DirtyDairy #Farming
We keep hearing about those good farmers who want to pass on their farms in better condition than they inherited them. Why then are the snowflakes so thin-skinned when called out about putting their money where their mouth is? #nzpol #dirtydairy
How do you like that tasty butter/cheese/milk now, then?

Last week we watched Milked along with the Greenpeace volunteers and team.
While the optimism around "milk without the cow" using precision fermentation didn't really eventuate, everything else in the film holds up remarkably well years later.
Here's the entire #documentary, if you'd like to […]
The tobacco industry assured us that smoking didn't cause cancer.
The oil industry assured us that oil didn't cause climate change.
And the dairy industry assures us that nitrate contamination doesn't cause cancer 👀
