We are all related as a human family and if we are to survive as a species, we really need to wake up to this simple basic truth that we are all related to all living beings on this planet. That we are Guardians and just not children of the earth and we have a responsibility of care to preserve what lives within the biosphere and the need for mindfulness as to how we live and express ourselves.As an extension of the earth we need to constantly remember that what we enjoy today has been lent to us by previous generations thus the imperative that we bequeath a healthy sustainable world onto our children and grandchildren is so important.He tells how we can come back to a place of harmony and find within ourselves a place of reverence, which is through our heart. And our heart is the inner compass for our guidance.Where as in todays world we’ve become so enmeshed in our mind, our schedules and daily survival mode that causes us to lose our focus - whilst on our hamster wheels of separation and from that which supports us is diminished and in most cases lost. When, if we take the time, and listen to our heart, this is the way to a direct connection to source. – the great mystery of life.We are a rainbow nation of many colours and creeds, that we humans are guests here on the earth and here for a limited time being related to all biota we can step into the sacred circle of life and immerse ourselves into a unity consciousness of all beings.It’s interconnection with all life.Remember we are all students of life, even a master if they are true to themselves, will admit to being a student … being present to deep listening.We are in a time of imbalance and our planet is in transition through a major shift in energy and awareness and to the awakened - a purification - for what we do to the earth we do to ourselves and to future generations as well.We need to look into ourselves to re evaluate our values, our virtues the ethics of how we negotiate life.Being thankful and being in gratitude, is a key to magnetising success into our existence and this abundance we can share with each other.Through the door way of the heart we can also access the akashic records and tap into a greater knowing beyond time and space.Reciprocity: Is another key to our survival, through co-operation and co-creation.If we continue the mathematics of economics, or ecology as we are promulgating now, we inherently know where this will lead to, yet we still continue to do this, when we know we have to break this chain.We have built a world today at a huge cost to nations and the earth itself.We have self limiting belief systems and encage ourselves within this context of our own ignorance or unknowingness.Acknowledging our ancestors – we have our lives today, that have been bequeathed to us from our forefathers and the birthings from countless mothers – we have them to thank for our very fortunate circumstances that we live in today and we are taking this for granted – some would say abusing the privelegde through over indulgence, waste, abuse, drunkeness, debauchery.However when we tune in to the magnifence of our bloodline, our linage – then comes the gratitude.Sun ceremonies – the sun is full and rounded and gives out its light unconditionally and this is an invitation for us all to be able to express ourselves from our heart and let the light of who we are express its fullness.The imperative is for us to listen to the first nation peoples, the wisdom keepers of the earth, those people who are immersed in earth energies, living among forests, mountains, along side rivers and streams and higher latitudes. Deeply embedded in the pulse of life, often barefooted.To walk the path of beauty to witness the magnificence of nature – at the same to keep a pure heart to walk in reverence and to walk in gratitude.Blue Pearl Mother Earth:We here in Aotearoa are lving in one of the last 'Gardens of Eden' on our planet – Kailash's call to we NZers is to please preserve this living earth and all that is sacred and be responsible in taking true guardianship of what has been bequeathed to us.The power of prayer too is emphasised – with a pure intention within a unified field – that 'miracles can happen.'Listen to a very knowing man who from his youth has walked his talk and experienced a fascinating life well beyond the daily understanding of the Western mind.www.kailash-kokopelli.comAppearing at Voices of the Sacred Earth Eco Festival - 21st, 22nd and 23rd of February 2014 at Albany Northshore at - Kawai Purapura Retreat Centre.http://www.kawaipurapura.co.nz
John Coombs interviews Patient Advocate and busy mother Tania Nevill and Wellness Coach and Lifestyle Mentor Susan Somerville on the practical benefits of well managed Holistic Health programs for people from all walks of life with many helpful hints and suggestions.Tania Nevill founder of iconic corporate menswear company Working Style has a new working focus in life: helping optimise the wellness of the local community with obvious spin offs for her family.Tania shares with you the process she went through to resolve long term fatigue from trying to balance family and a busy working life, as well as the long term benefits she and her family experienced from Holistic Health.Having achieved her initial goal of more vitality Tania then focused on optimising her health which meant she can contribute more effectively to patient advocacy to benefit the whole community.Susan Somerville has a science and psychology background which lead her to a diverse working career in accelerated learning, HR and environmental programs.Having since trained in metabolic nutrition Susan follows Tania's thread with practical solutions to common health issues.Her special interest is anti-aging and optimised wellness, which occurs when people initiate wellness lifestyle systems; including an obvious balance of exercise, sleep, nutrition and leisure with effective health care across the spectrum of physical, mental emotional and spiritual therapeutics.
Though environment health and consciousness runs through the program, we discuss the basic life needs of air, water and earth - soil & food.Starting with air and the particulates of matter in cities such as Auckland and that due to the smallness of both the NZ population and the country, the wind is our default air conditioner in this country. That we are indeed very fortunate in this situation (some would say lazy).However, we cannot avoid, deny or run away from what is perculating (some would say belching) out of Fukushima in Japan, and that is air born and water carried radiation from the defunct nuclear reactors that main stream media have been told to keep out of the headlines and out of the news.The fact that Japan and the nuclear industry are joined at the nucleated hip and that the countries that surround the Pacific ocean are complicit in not taking the Japanese to the World Court is a travesty.We move on to cover MSM (main stream media) and how it spins information and that our drinking water is being sanitised by chlorine (which also has a downside effect on our health) as well as we being mass medicated by fluoride. That Hamilton city ratepayers and citizens recently elected to come back into the 'fold of unknowningness' and continue to add fluoride once again to their water supply is yet another farce. So much so as to curtail their children from becoming more intellectually savvy than their parents, due to them not wanting to do any research on this subject what so ever. See Prof Paul Connett's startling fluoride research.Aspartame and its dangers in Zero Coke and sugarless drinks, the NZ All Blacks rugby team involved in its promotion.We move on to GE and GMO’s and that NZ still remains a GE Free Nation, but that Govt and Big Business are lock stepped in wanting NZ to become a GE contaminated nation as well as sabotaging our leadership role in being steadfast in the face of ethically bankrupt biotech corporations.
Note that to many other small countries, NZ is, despite the current Govt, a moral force for good in the world, and by remaining resolute in not surrendering our soverienty, we give strength to other countries to stand up to corporate dominance. Thus the TPPA the Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement is not in the best interest of NZ citizens at all.(it never was!) It's only consolidating power for Global Corporate dominance.
We also talk about other ways to use grass roots media, to bypass main stream media and the addiction of people wanting to hear that their government and their corporate sponsors will take care of us … all we have to do is acquiesce and let them get on with it.
That every letter you write, every email you send, every meeting you attend that you act and speak strategically –REMEMBER; we are taking care of today’s and tomorrows children, on a planet that has increased its population by nearly another billion people since the advent of GreenplanetFM just 10 years ago. That is the equivlent of another 700 Aucklands side by side. Imagine this!We both concurred fully with doing away with political parties – vote for the person and thatwww.theawarenessparty.com that Lisa initiated is offering unique and insightful ways of self governance that is inclusive and dynamic.Also, that around 67 NZ finance companies crashed from around 2006 to around 2011. With the loss of $9 billion in savings disappearing. Yes, that's 9 billion NZ dollars from about 70,000 peoples life savings - just vanishing - and know one talks about it or even really investigates it?We also cover cycles of our great mother planet, our magnificent life support system and sustainer and I hint that within the wheels within wheels and invisible cyclic systems that it would be worthwhile reflecting on the recycling of the soul in an evolutionary context of understanding our incarnation. Many of the major religions and philosophies over time have embedded this in their cosmology however, both Christianity and Islam have shied away from the natural world of spirals and cyclic knowingness. Yet, unbeknown some Jewish sects include reincarnation into their understanding.However, this goes beyond the intellect into our intuition and more subtle frontiers of the mind and we now need to be understanding of the frequency that we oscilate too and how we can align with it.All in All, a lovely chat with Lisa, that could have gone on for many hours, but as usual we were constrained by time.Lisa Er & Tim LynchEARTH FILES FOR THIS WEEKPrana New Year Festival And Join with Maya,www.prana.co.nz/prana/new-years-festival-2014You are invited for a 5 Day celebration and the 21st Anniversary of an inspiring & delightful Family Friendly, Music, Workshop, and Art & Dance Festival!An event that hosts approx.1200 people on pristine land & access to remote and untouched Opoutere Beach, whilst keeping an intimate atmosphere with plenty of entertainment for young and old with this year's theme revolving around the 'Mystery of Life'.....Come and celebrate connection, unity consciousness, mediation natural food, juices and teas and living deeply in concord with the land and ocean shore.

In today's globalized economy, most of the everyday products we buy, wear, and eat are produced with labour from the developing world.But do we ever think of the story behind the products that we buy? Who planted the seed for our cotton clothing and sheets? Where did the seed come from? Was it a genetically engineered seed? What fertilisers, herbicides, and pesticides were used on the cotton? How did those affect the health of the farmer workers. How old were the workers? Who removed the seeds from the cotton boll and who processed them, wove them and made them into garments? Were they paid adequately for their labours? This is the story of the cotton trail.Theresa Grantham a haute-couture, or high fashion consultant and business woman in New Zealand, knew at a certain level there was a better way to service the fashion industry with a clear conscience. After a profound visit to India, she set out to change the karma of clothing and ended up launching a fashion brand that acts as a laboratory for social innovation and transformation.The result is Atma Vichara. Atma Vichara was born of an idea that simultaneously developed in the minds of a group of people dispersed across four corners of the globe. This diverse group of individuals was inspired by a notion of another way to do business; of a way to value the people who are working to make products that each and every one of us are surrounded by.Atma means consciousness or awareness or the unfathomable intelligence. Vichara means inquiry into. So Atma Vichara means inquiry into consciousness itself.
So Theresa and her partners are working to create conscious vibrational clothing, to bring morality into business. She prefers the word morality to ethics and says the business model is beyond ethics, sustainability and profit. They are creating a culture of positive storytelling, education, and transparency.Theresa tells us of Value Chain Development. That is finding reliable ethical manufacturers and facilitating stakeholder interaction and engagement.Then there is Supplier Development which involves rural outreach: and design interventions to improve lives of farmers and artisans. It also reviews existing supplier support programmes.Business Model Development involves concept development, using fashion language to tell the story behind the label; business model design, and strategy and philosophy.Translating ideals and ethics into company vision and mission is part of Organisational Development. There needs to be strengthening around core values; team building and value alignment. Self-inquiry is a basis for organisational learning.All these contribute to creating a new way to do business, and from which others can learn and be advised.You can find more on the web site: www.atmavichara.orgThe sales arm of the organisation is www.seedtoself.inTo find out more about the cotton industry and why we need to be concerned, see the movie:www.behindthelabel.itThis programme was sponsored by: www.theawarenessparty.comNew Zealanders working towards a new dynamic-community, democracy and goodwill.
Ranging over a wide variety of topics, that include complimentary and alternative health, the problems with chlorinated and fluoridated water. Biological agriculture as against chemical agriculture. Corporate control of chemicals and drugs, plus the galloping increase of corporate farming.Our unhealthy common salt intake, lack of iodine is translating to global thyroid problems.That five US corporations have virtually taken control of the world food chain, and use the WTO and the TPPA as mechanisms to tighten their grip.He concludes with an overview of the USA and UK's astrological challenges that he says will become very evident over the next 18 months and how the US military appears only to go on the offensive when certain astrological configurations occur.I asked Glen at the start of this interview to hit a number of balls out of the park and possibly he went one further and hit one, possibly two into near earth orbit ...
***Glen's premise:Using bio-dyamics and agricultural impulses first introduced by Rudolf Steiner and the basic thesis of as above, so below - as per the tree of life, leaves and branches above and perennial roots and feeder roots under ground.Questioning how can we revolutionize and add to Biodynamics, because there are so many offshoots of the near religious connotations to it, that in many ways is not applicable to farmers for cultivation of the land and growing food, be it vegetable or animals. However, it is very much a science, once people learn to decipher the language of 1920's German to equate it to todays current vernacular.With Glen's impute, this translates to plants being able to be warmed up to have a 3 degree frost protection capacity that has been tested by NZ's Horticultural Research Centre as well as increase photosynthesis by 20% and an ability to stop fruit splitting.These are just a few of the new understandings of biodynamics, including highly potentized humus preparation of cow manure stored in cow horns under ground and silica sprays as well as preparations made of quartz crystals and dandelion, stinging nettle, yarrow, oak bark and chamomile, which we hear and know nothing about!This process deals in minute quantities, down to parts per million and it leads into homeopathics, which again science has huge problems with getting their head around. The reason being most tinctures are so diluted that the particles are virtually non existence, and that only the wave-form exists, (such as the ghost in the machine).Yet, we only have to look at the British Royal family, their robust health and long life and the Royal physicians who are steeped in homeopathic knowledge. Which is really a peoples medicine as it is also very cheap to produce.In an ideal world, Glen would like to have as your healers Homeopaths and Naturopaths working together, as well as other secondary modalities (like acupuncture, iridology, chiropractic and osteopathy) along with a host of other natural remedial practices.Note, that it is very difficult to make money out of homeopathy. Not like the multi billions that are channelled into pharmaceutical drugs where colossal patents and costs claw back their investment and ... then some!Then Glen reminds us that at the beginning of the 20th century the call was for 'Government for the people by the people' - the 21st century is - 'Government by the corporations for the corporations' - the manipulating 1%.With biological agriculture making inroads into dairy but even more so in the sheep and beef industry there is a rapidly increasing up-take that is two fold in nature, healthy non chemicalised soils is translating to healthy produce that is enabling a very healthy gut and alimentary canal in the human body, and a win win for all of us who are coming more conscious of holistic choices.Now in Australia, the two largest controlling supermarkets have bought up a huge number of service stations including alcohol outlets and now due to depressed pricing, they are reportedly forcing many farmers into bankruptcy and buying their land, which means corporate control, and thus control of the food supply of middle Australia.Then learn from a friend of Glen's that works at the United Nations that the worlds food supply is basically controlled by five United States corporations. Through the WTO, World Trade Organisation and now the Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement, the secretive TPPA.Hence the call for grass roots organizations to get savvy and organize ourselves into small dynamic cells to address these issues.From the chlorination and fluoridation of water and the direct relationship with our iodine metabolism which knocks out our thyroid gland which stuffs up our metabolism, and then as the chlorine in our water gets to our gut it sterilizes that too, hence the beneficial microbes in our intestines are under constant assault.If you are on metropolitan water … leading to the current explosion of uncertain, leaky gut and cancer of the bowel. Evidently, not too long ago 'they' increased the chlorine levels in NZ so as to sterilize the water to a greater degree …Covering liquids that we drink, Glen asks the question; how can we have a bottle of fizzy drink cheaper than a bottle of water?Then there is common salt and the lack of iodine, and that common salt is basically devoid of goodness, and that high sodium levels are supposedly replacing lithium in the brain and is causing bi polar disorders.What the latest holistic research is saying is that ailments such as cancer, bi polar, diabetes and obesity are seen to be stemming out of our excessive use of common table salt.Glens covers astrology as well, how the planetary elite use it for their own purposes, that Hitler used it, Ronald Reagan, and (the Royal Family) however the upper echelons of society do it in secret whilst publicly ridiculing it saying it is worthless rubbish. Glen mentions the physics of it, the geometry and that we live in an electro magnetic universe and that our bodies are also electro magnetic - we are energy fields oscillating in a universal energy field.Glen then covers 20 minutes on certain astrological situations that I will leave for anyone who wants to follow this up to listen to this information filled interview.A clue is that the USA and UK have major challenges for 2014 and into 2015, because of their astrological make up. USA being a Cancer country 4th of July and the UK being a Capricorn country based in the 1st of January 1801.This is a packed out information rich interview, where Glen covers the information gamut in our localized universe and basically runs short of time.Web site: www.bdmax.co.nz and http://garudabd.org
Independent researcher in spiritual science and metaphysics Tom Brown questions our world view and looks at how it is sometimes based on historically inaccurate science.Have we created our society from a faulty model? Have Newton, Darwin, and others, made incorrect assumptions that science is still based on today?How do our belief systems play into this, and why do we need a paradigm shift to correct this? Is our collective unconscious actually creating the reality that we experience? Is life as the quantum physicists describe to us, or have they got it wrong as well?Referring often to Rudolf Steiner’s Etheric Sciences, Tom talks about man’s descent into matter, and how people are living in an illusion. Just to challenge us he asserts that not only is the earth going around the sun, the sun is going around the earth.This interview will not only provoke you, but will stimulate you to question everything you thought you ever knew.
Before coming to New Zealand Tom worked as director & chief editor at Borderland Sciences Research Foundation in California. He also organised a global network of researchers and was publisher on numerous cutting edge projects.In New Zealand in the late nineties he was the Founding Director of the New Zealand Hemp Industries Association.He has written four books:

* URGENT EARTHFILES FOR THIS WEEK! * Both Lisa and Tim have already submittedKeep GE and GMO'S out of Auckland and Northland.We need your help! PLEASE WRITE A SUBMISSION. See below.We need massive numbers of submissions to Auckland Council.Auckland's proposed Unitary Plan includes good statements to protect the community against release of GMOs.However, could you take a minute or two to write in support of this - preferably using your own words - and adding any points you want including from the 'background' section further downYour message of support is needed NOW - before the government changes the RMA to block councils having a role in protecting against GM risks, and before Federated Farmers and others write to oppose the Precautionary Principle in the plan.Including your Contact details you could write something like:"I write to support the policy of precaution on GMOs contained in the Auckland proposed Unitary Plan.The Unitary Plan's precautionary GE objective, and methods & policies to achieve that objective, are important to the community.I support local protection against GMO risks, which have been recommended by the Northland /Auckland "Inter Council Working Party on GMO Risk Evaluation & management Options"I support a precautionary approach by council providing an additional tier of protection against risks of outdoor use of GMOs which central government has not addressed through the EPA."Include whether you wish to speak to your submission and whether you would like to receive further information.Email your submission to: [email protected] email now.Submissions close 28 February 2014 but please send your submission now, before The Minister for the Environment changes the law to stop any precautionary/ prohibitive GE content in the Auckland Council proposed Unitary Plan. NOW you can see what we are dealing with. The Government moving the goal posts, so that NZ may not become the only ark on earth for uncontaminated organic seeds.Background:Councils in Northland, Auckland, Bay of Plenty, and Hawke's Bay have responded wisely to concerns about GMOs by investigating the risks posed by GMOs in the environment, and how they can best minimize these risks.In Auckland we must write in support of the draft Unitary Plan sections prohibiting GMO release. Auckland Council has worked with other local councils to control GMOs because of gaps in the Hazardous Substances and New Organisms (HSNO) Act.The Plans includes:• ensuring GM operators are financially accountable for the full costs of contamination, clean-up, monitoring and remediation• adopting a precautionary approach to manage potential risks (economic, environmental, social and cultural) from outdoor use of GMOs• protecting marketing advantages associated with a “GE free” status• addressing community and cultural concerns of mana whenua.NOW PLEASE INVITE YOUR FRIENDS TO DO THIS, SO THAT WE HAVE HUNDREDS OF SUBMISSIONS.THINK JUST HOW IMPORTANT IT IS TO HAVE OUR BIGGEST CITY AND DISTRICT GE FREE IN OUR ENVIRONMENT.Keep Monsanto out!!Thank youLisa Er
This extraordinary New Zealand migratory bird flies each autumn just before the cold and dark of winter all the way from NZ in the Southern hemisphere up via China and Korea to the Alaskan warmth and light of spring and the coming summer in the Northern hemisphere.However, after laying their eggs and bringing up their young, the godwits then fly nonstop back around the curve of our planet - to NZ … a distance of 11,500 kilometers – without stopping, and for the ‘new born’s’ this is an astonishingly long distance voyage … and to an unknown destination too.Now …. Imagine you are up in Alaska and autumn foreshadows the coming cold and darkness of winter and the godwits along the shorelines prepare for their epic journey south as they sense the prevailing winds and conditions and ready themselves for take off.Finally lifting off to fly continuously hour after hour, the sun overhead will appear to track from east to west and after 12 or so hours the sun will set and darkness sets in - yet flying all night, up to an altitude of 2 or 3 kilometers above the earths surface, with starlight above them and the planet still turning on its axis, they will witness the sun rising in the east the next morning as they continue there arduous journey.And with our planet still turning they will persist all day, all night flying without sleep or rest in a southerly direction – across the expansive Pacific ocean - continuously for another 6 days and nights ...To finally swoop down into Miranda on the Firth of Thames in NZ, and safely land.Having traversed 11,500 kilometes.What an enormous ‘flight of passage!’
How can the godwit, a very small bird with a frail appearance accomplish such a gigantic feat and every time find its way 'home'?When we look at the human species and look at our capabilities …If a bird brain can find its way home, how come the human species has not realized that it’s 'our planet' that is our collective home, and the urgent need to take care of it, for as you may very well know, birds do not soil their own nest, so how come the human species manages to accomplish this act without even thinking?This 52 minute interview covers some of the mysterious elements of physiology, such as the godwits ability to reshuffle proteins in their bodies before they set out flying and that this allows them to reduce the size of their food-processing organs.Navigation; How do they know where to go and what time to fly? Introducing Rupert Sheldrake's ideas on 'morphic resonance' and other phenomenon beyond the visible.Loss of habitat and decline of population and Fukushima radiation, and could Godwits be the 'Canary in the Nuclear coal mine?References:Godwits - Long Haul Champions by Keith Woodley from Penguin Books.The Ornithological Society of New Zealand:http://www.osnz.org.nzhttp://www.nzbirds.com/birds/kuaka.htmlhttp://www.sheldrake.org/Resources/faq/answers.htmlBird Migration is the one truly unifying natural phenomenon in the world, stitching the continents together in a way that even the great weather systems, which roar out of the poles, but fizzle at the equator, fail to do. It is an enormously complex subject, perhaps the most compelling drama in all natural history. ~ Scott Weidensaul.
Dr. Paul Connett, PhD, Emeritus Professor from St. Lawrence University USA. He is an, executive director of the Fluoride Action Network (FAN) and its parent organization, the American Environmental Health Studies Project.For years health experts have been unable to agree on whether fluoride in the drinking water may be toxic to the developing human brain. Extremely high levels of fluoride are known to cause neurotoxicity in adults, and negative impacts on memory and learning have been reported in rodent studies, but little is known about the substance’s impact on children’s neurodevelopment.In a meta-analysis, researchers from Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) and China Medical University in Shenyang for the first time combined 27 studies and found strong indications that fluoride may adversely affect cognitive development in children.Based on the findings, the authors say that this risk should not be ignored, and that more research on fluoride’s impact on the developing brain is warranted.Yet New Zealand Authorities are challenging Councils that want to keep being fluoride free or remove fluoride from the water supply.And isn’t it a basic human right NOT to be mass medicated, even if some might think they are doing us a favour? When the fluoridation of water began, there was little evidence for its long term safety (as for GMOs) and since then little attempt has been made to monitor its health effects systematically.Because there are so many unanswered health questions, fluoridation of water must be considered an ongoing experimental procedure, and as such it is a violation of the Nuremberg Code, which forbids experimentation on humans without their informed consent. In Europe, nearly all countries have either never fluoridated their water or have ceased doing so.Yet the incidence of tooth decay has declined just as much as in those countries that practice fluoridation. This fascinating interview with Dr Paul Connett, will raise alarm bells about many aspects of the mass medication of the population by fluoride and he challenges us to do something about it.NOTE: This may be a repeat, but it has a NEW INTRODUCTION, covering what has happened in Hamilton over the last few months and why Hamiltonians would collectively vote to mass medicate themselves with chemicals that slowly over time actually alter the bodies chemistry and make up.

Steffan Browning, Green Party Member of Parliament. Spokesperson on: Organics, GE and GMO's, Fisheries, Agriculture, Bio-security and Forestry. PLUS, The Grand Daddy of them All: Security and Intelligence.Steffan has been at the forefront of the New Zealand organics movement for more than twenty years. His aim is to have genuinely sustainable organics in New Zealand's food, fibre, forestry and fishing industries - which he states, needs to be integrated from a holistic perspective and 'also makes good business sense'.Listen as Steffan divulges the challenges that organics face, on the front lines of GE untruths, agribusiness and the unknowingness of government of both holistic systems and sustainability.Hear the most powerful and potent statement in NZ's Parliament for decades as Steffan covers the descent on Wellington of multiple layers of the global security apparatus that coincided with the 1st Reading of the GCSB Bill, it's knock-on effect and connecting the dots as to how NZ is cavorting with loss of its sovereignty, enabling the matrix to hover over, and hoover our fast losing innocence as a global moral compass - defender of democracy and citizen rights.
Covering the the machinations of the SECURITY & INTELLIGENCE BILL - THE GCSB BILL.Steffan Browning on the GCSB and Related Legislation Amendment Bill 21 Aug 2013 | Speech | Steffan Browning Green MPhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=6kRIlhAftEI "I implore one of the 61 MPs who has previously supported this legislation to change at this vote and allow a full inquiry first. The Government has failed to provide a real justification for this fundamental attack on our democratic rights and freedoms, and the legislation facilitates the legal establishment of a surveillance State in New Zealand".This too is mentioned: NZ's increasing involvement with global military alliances, when we need to be an Advocate for Peace and Conflict Resolution.FOOD GE FREE Organic 2020The fight with Government inaction on GE in our imported fodder for cattle! GE Free New Zealand and our courageous volunteers battling big interests as of this moment. www.gefree.org.nzGovernment inaction again regarding Food Labeling.That we still have very poor food labeling in NZ as GE and GMO labeling is only voluntary where it needs to be mandatory across the board.That 'Country of Origin' needs also to be clearly stated on the package, can, bottle as to where ingredients are grown/sourced etc.BIO- SECURITY:Pig Farmers and Bee keepers to combine to keep strong bio-security in place. Due to lax importation controls.Huge challenges here for NZ. Nearly 50% of our pork is imported (why?) and there are 'sars' related global health problems that could easily come in to NZ in raw cuts of pork.Border controls need to be strengthened far more stringently with more financial backing as shipping containers swamp the authorities and more lax controls are applied.More unknown diseases, viruses are entering NZ at present.FORESTRY:Current rorts in Carbon Credits around deforestation and dairying replacing trees.The adoption of the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) standard shows that a national environmental standard is possible and the Government should advance one urgently.That 11 humans are equal to one cow in their capacity to ingest and excrete. A conservative estimate is the number of dairy cows in NZ at present are equal to 66 million people inhabiting NZ, the same population as the UK.FISHERIES:
Salmon, huge problems with Salmon farms, each ones 'waste' is the equivalent to a town of 40,000 people.Growing problems with sustainable fisheries in NZ due to vested interests and having to patrol our vast fishing grounds.1080 arial poison represents an ever-growing threat to New Zealand's 'clean, green' image, according to the New Zealand Deerstalkers' Association. How do the Greens position themselves to this when they are officially wanting an organic world? Steffan's answer to the vexing problem of possums.And much, more.Steffan Browning Green MP - Organic Sustainable NZ. This post needs to be seen by far more NZers - especially when we see where all of this is leading. If we do nothing, the children of the future, will not be angry, they will be enraged!
