  2. Australia is the only deforestation hotspot among developed nations and national laws are ineffective

    We've done the south - Now for the north!
    A case of filibusterism?

    "Forests and woodlands across Australia’s south were deforested many decades ago. But our northern reaches have stayed far more intact – until recently. Most clearing took place without being assessed under Australia’s national environmental laws, which covers damage to threatened species and ecological communities. And state laws have many exemptions, especially in Queensland...Australia has promised to end deforestation. The problem is, our environmental laws and enforcement are failing to do so."

    "Our results showed that even a nation with a suite of mature environmental protection laws is falling well short of achieving international commitments regarding deforestation...Poor compliance and exemptions facilitate ongoing deforestation."

  7. The bastard coalition has killed off the Kermadec Ocean Sanctuary.

    Fronting their latest ecological vandalism are the paid-for spokesperson for the commercial fishing industry, Shane Jones and the ineffective Penny Simmonds wearing her Environment Minister hat. The one with the bell on top.

  8. Polar #ClimateChange as Manifest in #AtmosphericCirculation

    J A Screen , T J Bracegirdle , I Simmonds
    August 2018

    "Dynamic manifestations of climate change, i.e. those related to circulation, are less well understood than are thermodynamic, or temperature-related aspects. However, this knowledge gap is narrowing. We review recent progress in understanding the causes of observed changes in polar tropospheric and stratospheric circulation, and in interpreting climate model projections of their future changes."

  13. CW: #NZPol

    Environment Minister Penny Simmonds, a little late out of the blocks as usual, has found something else the last government did that she can cancel. Bit disappointing there was no press conference, but sticking a spoke into the recycling wheel shows her solid commitment to the mission to remove all trace of the previous government in the statutes and regulations of the land.

  14. CW: NZPol Whaikaha / Simmonds on watch

    "Then on Tuesday morning, Willis confirmed Cabinet had asked for more oversight of decisions being made by Simmonds and Whaikaha.

    “We’ve also directed, as a Cabinet, that any further decisions that the ministry makes about changing its criteria, its funding, needs to be properly consulted, properly sequences. It needs to go to Cabinet before it’s enacted,” Willis said."

    Like many of my TMTCH favourites, this could have been straight from a history book. Never mind learning about the 1797 Nore naval mutiny, even the line "To the masters we are the rabble, we are the 'swinish multitude'" is a reference to Edmund Burke, writing about the French Revolution in 1790, confirming Paul Simmonds as one of my songwriting heroes!
