Commonwealth countries have recently adopted the Apia Ocean Declaration for One Resilient Common Future, which calls for an importance to restore and preserve all amenities of the ocean for future generations.
The declaration was signed last week in Samoa, and includes fifty-six independent sovereign states. Addressing the ocean through a declaration is inherently important, but due to the wide scope and similar previous declarations, experts question whether it will lead to real action.
Sasha spoke to Professor of the Marine Institute from the University of Auckland, Simon Thrush, about the recent commonwealth ocean declaration and potential implications.
The new rodeo season commenced this past Sunday the 3rd of November, and animal rights organisation SAFE is calling for a ban on this sport.
SAFE Campaign Manager Emily Hall spoke to Sasha about these rodeo events, stating that they breach the New Zealand Animal Welfare Act. There are many other issues with the rodeo sport industry, as for example it is not necessary for the organisations to report deaths or injuries unless requested.
For their regular catch-up, Oto spoke to the Green Party’s Ricardo Menéndez March about proposed cuts to Aotearoa’s long term child poverty reduction goals by Minister for Child Poverty Reduction, Louise Upston, as well Todd McClay’s new charter for recreational hunting and fishing and the Green party’s calls to ban bottom trawling.
He spoke to Sarita Divis from the child poverty action group for an expert opinion on the Louise Upston’s decision to reduce child poverty reduction targets.
For this week’s Get Action! He speak to Rachel Jaboon from the Victoria African Diaspora Student Association to discuss a petition of hers calling for the Wellington government to make the CBD safer for Rangatahi and students.
And He spoke to Dr Timothy Fadgen from the University of Auckland to talk about how Donald Trump might raise allegations of voter fraud if he loses the upcoming U.S elections, as American voters head to the polls today.
Sasha spoke to Professor Simon Thrush, from the institute of Marine Science about the past week’s commonwealth ocean declaration
And he spoke to Emily Hall from the SAFE organisation calling for changes to New Zealand’s animal welfare and banning rodeo events.
A recent document obtained under the official information act has revealed that minister for Child Poverty, Louise Upston, is calling for a statutory review of New Zealand’s current 10-year child poverty reduction targets.
In the document, Upston says that New Zealand’s current child poverty reduction goals are “unattainable” and called for investment into those targets to be reduced within the current timeframe.
The review will then be sent to minister of Finance, Nicola Wilis, who will have the final say on the fate of Aotearoa’s child poverty reduction goals.
For their weekly catchup, Oto spoke to the Green Party’s Ricardo Menendez-March to discuss the party’s take on Louise Upston’s decision to reduce child poverty reduction targets.
They also talked about the new charter for recreational hunting and fishing, introduced by minister for Hunting and Fishing Todd McClay, as well as the Green Party’s calls to ban bottom trawling.
Oto reached out to Sarita Divis from the Child Poverty Action Group for her organisation’s take on the proposed changes to Child Poverty Reduction goals by Minister Louise Upston.
This comes after Louise Upston, called for a statutory review of New Zealand’s current 10-year child poverty reduction targets, and subsequent reduction of them, in a recently revealed document.
The Child Poverty Action Group have officially criticised the review, saying that the current goals were important for reducing child poverty and have called upon National to retain them.
