Due to hundreds of uncontrolled wildfires across Canada, New York City looks like a post-apocalyptic hellscape. If you want a prelude of what the world is going to look like if we do not address man-made climate change — this is it. #ActOnClimate

In the last two years the misogyny and violence directed towards Ardern has increased in volume and become more dangerous. "The language and imagery used to talk about the Prime Minister has become more violent, more vulgar, more crude and repetitive." rnz.co.nz/news/political/482…
