Ross and I noticed this the other day, but yeah - anyone noticed how many families and murder suicides are happening - and then look at the reason. Austerity kills. Austerity kills. www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/auckland/...
Experts and community leaders told the Herald the killings may reflect a rise in families wrestling with financial stress, and the failure to support and treat people with serious mental health and addiction problems.

For those in the back: The total amount the New Zealand government has spent on all historical Waitangi Tribunal settlements over the last 30+ years is less than the cost of a single year of the 2024 tax cuts for Landlords.

NEW: some scary new research out today showing that the fossil fuel industry's use of AI could possibly increase global energy emissions by as much as 4.8% — about as much as Russia's energy sector emits yearly that number is much larger than global data center emissions projections
wired.com
AI Could Help Fossil Fuel Companies Create More Emissions
New research finds that by making the fossil fuel industry more productive, AI could help increase carbon emissions by up to nearly 5 percent—vastly outpacing the impact of data centers.
