    Not sorry to see you go. Any hints on how to get marama and chloe to do the same.

      Enjoy your climate catastrophes. 'We don’t know precisely how close we are to triggering some devastating tipping point that could threaten human civilization. The collective evidence from the past tells us that we’ve still got a safety margin. Science tells us that if we act quickly, if we act dramatically, we can avoid warming that will bring far worse consequences. That’s the fragility of this moment: we have a little bit of a safety margin, but it’s not a large safety margin. Yes, it’s bad, and we face far worse consequences if we don’t act. We can see devastating climate consequences already. That’s the urgency. But the paleoclimate record tells us we haven’t triggered runaway warming yet. We can avoid that point of no return if we act quickly and dramatically. That’s the agency. We’ve got 4 billion years of Earth history. Let’s try to learn from it.'

      Nothing to answer for is why. Are you a slow learner? Or just another Name followed by number trollbot?

    The most sane of the greens….but I’m not a fan of their dream policies! I fear because of the young…. NZ might be govern by another Arden in Chloe…that would be the end of NZ

      The end of NZ? You're talking about climate change, not Ardern or Chloe. Who are far more sane than the present incumbents. What is 'sane' about ignoring the climbing rate of climate catastrophes? 'We don’t know precisely how close we are to triggering some devastating tipping point that could threaten human civilization. The collective evidence from the past tells us that we’ve still got a safety margin. Science tells us that if we act quickly, if we act dramatically, we can avoid warming that will bring far worse consequences. That’s the fragility of this moment: we have a little bit of a safety margin, but it’s not a large safety margin. Yes, it’s bad, and we face far worse consequences if we don’t act.

      Yes you are, but what is he? He was refreshingly frank. Liars in government now. Enjoying your extra $250 a week tax cut? Massive rate rises? Growing unemployment? The crimes have stopped? Are we 'back on track' yet? Clown coalition will fall to pieces before this term is up.
