Know your conspiracies
In these times of fake news, misinformation and disinformation, I think it is important to know the difference between a conspiracy theory and a conspiracy. Simply put, conspiracies leak and conspiracy theories don't. It's impossible to conspire without exchanging information and in today's tech world that's a major vulnerability. Genuine conspiracies are discovered through whistleblowers leaking that information.The Edward Snowden papers and the Cambridge Analytica scandal are examples. The Panama Papers conspiracy [to hide wealth] alone featured eleven and a half million leaked emails. The most famous conspiracy of all only involved fifteen plotters who met in the Duck and Drake pub in London, yet it was was betrayed unintentionally by a leaked letter. The Guy Fawkes Gunpowder Plot to assassinate King James I and the English parliament was thwarted and we still celebrate that over four hundred years later. So, no leaks no conspiracy, just a theory...and anyone can make one of those up.

Worst Xmas ever?
There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.
Whether you burnt the dinner or were stranded at an airport...

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
