MEDIAWATCH: NZ Herald pimping for Big Dairy

Now NZME is owned by alt-Right culture war Billionaire extremist Jim Grenon, the NZ Herald will lean more heavily into climate denial than ever before and this bullshit article by a corporate sczitist pimp trying to distance her Dairy industry from the pollution of the South Island is fucking insane…

NZ’s dairy debate and the ‘tonne of nitrogen’ myth: Dr Jacqueline Rowarth

Adjunct Professor Lincoln University, farmer-elected director on the boards of DairyNZ and Ravensdown, and a member of the Scientific Council of the World Farmers’ Organisation.

…I contacted Greenpeace directly about this green washing garbage, this is what their freshwater campaigner Will Appelbe had to say…

“It’s a well-established fact that dairy cow urine and synthetic nitrogen fertiliser are the primary sources of nitrate contamination in drinking water in Canterbury on a regional level. 

Other sources of nitrate contamination like septic tanks and other land use can cause localised contamination of water, but are not enough to explain the region-wide pattern of worsening contamination that we’re seeing.

We need to reduce cow numbers now to protect rural communities’ health – but instead, Jacqueline Rowarth is putting their health at risk by undermining fundamental science.”

…the NZ Herald can no longer be considered anything other than a mouthpiece for corporate polluters.

As the country is ravaged by extreme weather caused by that pollution,  the truth is that Half of world’s CO2 emissions come from just 32 fossil fuel firms, those polluters and their related industries will keep lying to you about what their pollution is doing and corporate media will be paid to distribute those lies.

At some stage, as you are flooded, you must wake up?

  1. The BBC had a story up a couple of days ago about farm milk prices are at a 20 year low in the UK .MIGHT BE A MESSAGE IN THAT FOR OUR OWN FARMERS and if that follows to NZ, which usually happens ,then that might fix the problem of pollution as half will go out of business .

  2. Kowtowing to ‘dirty dairy’ is exactly what we feared with its accompanying pollution and its support from The NZ Herald, especially now it’s run by an extreme RW bigot. After the last few days, how anyone with any vestige of intelligence, can deny climate change, is mind-boggling- it is well and truly here. The ‘lunatic’ Trump is another loose cannon climate-denier and is also due for a huge wake-up call. The brain-dead out there are a menace to human society so what the hell is NZH thinking of, or are they even programmed to think now? There will be more floods, slips, sinkholes, deadly fires etc. as the climate pays us back for our ineptitude and inaction. We all need to be ready for this as it won’t get any better and our offspring deserve so much better! A vote again for this hapless CoC means more of this same apathy and neglect. You fools – you can’t take your assets and money with you. It’s time for ‘real caring’ humans to join together to do everything they can to counteract what is inevitable and approaching so very fast.
