Urgent Advice Needed - Graphic Description

Chris from Maunu

We found our pet rabbit disembowelled, leaving a big hole, which were covered in straw, with her feet either gnawed or cut off. A really terrible end to a female, who had just given birth to two bunnies. We live in Maunu and to the rear of our garden are trees/bush, with the usual wild life. … View moreWe found our pet rabbit disembowelled, leaving a big hole, which were covered in straw, with her feet either gnawed or cut off. A really terrible end to a female, who had just given birth to two bunnies. We live in Maunu and to the rear of our garden are trees/bush, with the usual wild life. Does anyone have any idea what could have done this, so we can set the appropriate traps, so this can't happen again. Thank you in advance.

The Climate Game — Can you reach net zero?

Oliver Neighbourly Lead from One Tree Point

It's harnessing human competitiveness to explain the major contributors to greenhouse emissions, the actions the world could take to avoid climate catastrophe, and the wider benefits of greener energies.
For serious play and education, set aside 30 to 40 minutes of quiet and uninterrupted time. I thought I was reasonably well-informed about climate breakdown, and while I was quite happy with my result, I was surprised at what I got wrong and how much I still could learn from a simple yet effective game like this.

Scammers at it again - phone calls about putative Visa charges

Peter from Kamo

Last couple of days I received 3 calls from 2 different computer generated voices "This is Visa calling, this morning blah blah blah 2 transactions (mentions Amazon $800 and Apple itunes $1000) by which time I hang up.

Last couple of days I received 3 calls from 2 different computer generated voices "This is Visa calling, this morning blah blah blah 2 transactions (mentions Amazon $800 and Apple itunes $1000) by which time I hang up.
After the first time I got my phone to look at my visa status and there were no such charges. Of course. I am sure if they really did call me (and it would be the bank, not some generic 'Visa'), it would not be a computer voice, but someone who could actually intelligently discuss the matter.
Anyway, consider yourselves warned. They are apparently very busy/active with their little scheme if my 3 attempts are any thing to go by.
