🚁🏔️ This is the hypocrisy of #helitours that showcase the majestic taonga of the Haupapa/Tasman #Glacier while destroying it with unwanted #luxuryemissions
💨 Helis emit 40-60 times more CO2 per hour than cars

The Tasman Glacier recedes 180m per year, allowing us to float our banner on a massive lake that didn’t exist before 1973!

🚁In just 4½ hours, 49 helicopters flew overhead, ruining the alpine serenity. There is no limit on scenic flights!
Instead of a destructive heli tour, hop in a car and let your feet take you the rest of the way! It’s far more immersive and enriching
🏔️At Haupapa/Tasman Glacier we showed helicopter tour pilots and passengers the impact of their luxury emissions on these breathtaking places.
🚁Helis emit 40-60 times more CO2 per hour than cars, accelerating global warming and ironically, melting the glaciers tourists visit.
Thank you Prof of #SustainableTourism James Higham! We love that your podcast episode talks facts and not greenwash bs.
Jacqui Lloyd @NZCruiseAssoc CEO had a lot to say after we unwelcomed Diamond Princess @princesscruises recently...

🏭 How do you get approval for a huge polluting rubbish incinerator in a quiet rural area?
You bypass the Environment Court, talk to your buddies in govt and get it approved via the #FastTrack Bill.
The #Waimate waste-to-energy plant will truck in 365,000 tonnes of waste/yr
When you visit #Aotearoa Diamond Princess @PrincessCruises, or any other cruise line, you can expect to see us!
We’ll be here to let your passengers know the real impact of their cruise holiday, not the greenwash bullshit that @NZCruiseAssoc tells you! 🧵

We are asking you Hamish Campbell to use your voice, to listen to your electorate and to think of our wildlife who do not have voices of their own.
✊🏼 It’s not too late to act. We can create a future we can all thrive in.

#FastTrack
The #FastTrackBill will:
🪸Mine 50 million tons of seabed from #Taranaki shores each year.
🗑️🔥 Burn our trash for energy In #Waimate, every day using 2500m3 of water/day and generating 80 000 tons of ash byproduct that will end up in the air we breath.
#FastTrack #frog #climate
The frogs hate the #FastTrack because it will obliterate our forests and oceans with 11 mining projects 🫠
Campbell is the National MP for Ilam and he has a key vote in the Environment Select Committee which has the power to improve or even stop the #FastTrackBill.

🐸🗣️ Listen up Hamish Campbell, the frogs have spoken, and we all agree!
🦎 We need to rewild Aotearoa not #FastTrack us into climate chaos!
Last night frogs ✨redecorated✨ Hamish Campbell’s office to remind him nature comes first.
