Farmers
Found this on facebook the other day and thought it is a good comment:
Well........the planes ✈️ have stopped, cars 🚗 have stopped, the world as a whole has pretty much stopped and the Co2 levels have dropped!
Yet the farmers haven’t stopped. They’re still getting up to milk the cows 🐮 , the lambing 🐑 sheds are in full swing, the cattle are still being fed, the crops 🌱 are being planted, yet the CO2 has dropped.
Maybe agriculture isn’t quite as bad as the media have been making out .... maybe the world 🌎 isn’t going to end because of our livestock and farming, maybe, just maybe, agriculture is actually going to be the thing to save everyone when this world needs feeding and we cannot import avacados, coconut milk and mangoes from South America or Asia ....
So buy local, eat local, buy Kiwi, eat fresh...🐄🐷🐑

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
