This tactic is not new. In the 1980s, Exxon’s own scientists modeled global warming with unsettling accuracy. Their internal projections from the late 1970s match observed warming better than many peer-reviewed studies from the same period. Yet that knowledge did not produce leadership. It produced a risk-management strategy: treat knowledge as liability. In an extractive economy, uncertainty becomes a resource.

Any war is tragedy wrapped in disaster, but the current Middle East war –  between a repressive theocratic regime that murders protestors in the streets, and a wannabe repressive oligarchic regime that murders protestors in the streets – may yet have a positive outcome for Aotearoa NZ, if it leads to the demise of the current coalition government this November.

Whilst a new Labour-led government might still be beholden to NZ First, and its virulently anti-conservation deputy leader Shane Jones, the Fast Track Act and other environmental disasters-in-waiting are likely to be undone or ameliorated, and real action to mitigate climate change will be back on the table.

Just how opposed the coalition government is to the health, livelihood and future of ordinary Kiwis, has been well reported here, here and here.

To add insult to injury, they now want to bury the Ministry for the Environment in a pro-development “super ministry”

Clearly, we have a lot to do between now and November!

This documentary premiered at Parliament recently; here is the press release from that event, featuring Jenny Patrick OBE, the author of the historical novel, “Denniston Rose”:

https://www.forestandbird.org.nz/resources/denniston-rose-author-backs-petition-stop-mega-coal-mine

Forest and Bird have launched a national petition that asks for more than just stopping the mine; it demands a permanent solution, calling on the Government to reclassify the public conservation land on the Denniston Plateau as a Scientific Reserve.

This is the only rational, long-term solution to protect its unique ecosystems and ensure we are not fighting this same battle every decade.

Bathurst’s proposal for open-cast mining of the Denniston Plateau and Mt. Frederick is already on shaky ground. They face significant financial hurdles, and are in litigation with their business partner, Talley’s, in what seems like an attempt to get money out – Talley’s are aware of the risks if Bathurst spend a bunch of money developing these new mines and then soft demand results in Bathurst going belly-up, with nothing for Talley’s.

Globally, the coking coal market is turning. This year, China announced it will not consent new coal-powered steel foundries, and the global coking coal price has softened in response to oversupply.

It doesn’t take many of these factors stacking up to make the entire operation economically unviable.

WITH YOUR HELP, WE WILL WIN THIS!

One of our greatest challenges in getting things to a better place, is challenging human thinking and human behaviour. We are embedded and conditioned in a system that has evolved through our history with increased technological complexity. Add in things like debt and time pressure and it’s little wonder more ‘convenient’ and ‘efficient’ solutions are embraced.

When it comes to complex abstract and less accessible concepts, such as scientific data or even legislation, things can make for pretty dry reading. Pages of modeled emissions data, listening to intense debates on scientific results and methodology, the finer details of new exotic ‘high tech’ processes or tables of chemical residues listed in micrograms are prime examples.

Similarly, everyday things that we cannot  see, can quickly disappear off our personal horizon once incorporated into everyday activities.    Electricity is a classic example (hence the monthly bill surprise). The waste that we throw in the bin that gets removed is rapidly relegated to cognitive history.

So, imagine the human drama when all these elements are wickedly combined together – greenhouse gas emissions, rubbish, electricity, scientific methodology, dense tables listing chemical residues, legislation and legal processes – not to mention debt and time pressure.

The small Waikato town of Te Awamutu has been embroiled in such a drama. A company is propos to build a plant that will supposedly deal with rubbish by incinerating it at 850 degrees – and to make steam, to spin electrical generators thus potentially powering the town.

It might sound like a viable option – getting rid of waste and creating electricity at the same time. As we have discovered however, ‘convenient’ options are at risk of creating insidious unexpected outcomes on the longer timescale.    For an example with some evolving consequences (literally, in terms of fertility) think no further than microplastics being discovered everywhere in the human body where we finally decided to look – from human blood, to brain tissue, reproductive systems, breast milk and surprise – even inside bone marrow.

For incineration, the laws of thermodynamics very much apply, no matter how good the marketing material. The equation of reducing rubbish volume into ash is perfectly balanced by the release of greenhouse gas emissions (in this case some 150,000 tonnes per year), the ash, heat and the creation of exotic toxic compounds (think families of dioxins and furans). Nor does this come cheap, costing around $250 million to reduce a daily load of 450 tonnes of rubbish into around 23 tonnes of ash (or more), for the next 30 or so years.

The application for the consent to ‘discharge to air’ (gas emissions from the chimneys and any other air pollutants), mapped Te Awamutu with static gradient lines extending away from the proposed site.  It looked like the simple line isobars on an old weather map but in this case for pollution levels. As bland and uninteresting as a modeled map could be.

Enter ‘PlumePlotter’ – a depiction of modeled exhaust plume behaviour that is updated every hour.

Plumeplotter software visually depicts exhaust gas from point sources like chimneys, using real time meteorological air data to show the behaviour of modeled exhaust plumes from either real or proposed incinerators. It also gives a visual depiction of cumulative time spent by the exhaust plume in a location.  Plume plotter also estimates ‘fallout’ – for gases such as nitrogen dioxide – of concern for respiratory effects and acidic residues, as well as anything else that might get through the plant’s filters over its 30-year lifetime.

Being modeled hourly, more data can be combined into a video and speeded up – see such video based on 2023 weather via a YouTube search for ‘Waipa incinerator plume 2023’, or see it at  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfnGZyVxNJg.

Right now, having listened to various arguments for and against allowing such a plant, the Board of Inquiry (convened as the issue is of national precedence) is deliberating it’s decision. We may find out as soon as mid-August as to where the decision falls.

Either way, the underlying age old root cause issue still remains – how to ‘deal with waste’, and the unforseen future consequences thereof.  Our old human habit of ‘extract, use and throwaway’, has been vastly accelerated with a fossil fuel energy surplus, combined with technological hubris, plastic prowess, powerful interests and blinded consumer choice.

The incineration proponents have argued that the highest technology will get all the ‘nasties’ out. Unconvincingly they only had to consider 10 and 2.5 micron particle sizes (PM 10 and PM 2.5) in the evidence.  Just as we have just begun to find out with ‘nano’ plastic contamination (below PM 2.5) the particle numbers just go exponential.

The longer such spreading of ‘nano’ sized particles go on, the more the waste we thought we got ‘rid’ of starts popping up, everywhere, and in everything, bioaccumulating through foodchains and soils.

We expect a decision from the Board of Inquiry soon.

Protest Notes, by Masha Oliver

We’re sitting on the edge of a man-made drainage lake, staring at the landscape scar in front of us. A hill, cut in half and completely deformed, exposing layers and layers of rock, from grey sandstone at the top through wide streaks of white to a thick vain of deep black coal. It’s like looking at an abstract painting, as well as looking back in time. A human could not paint it better. Above it, stretches a banner: “Just transition off coal.”

It’s the first day of our encampment on Denniston Plateau as part of non-violent direct action for climate justice and to protect the unique landscape and biodiversity of the Plateau. Morning graciously offers us a window of sunny weather, which we use to roll out the banners, take some photos, chant and sing out loud what needs to be heard – Protect Denniston plateau! I look around and see all these people – from kids to elders – who I’ve never met before, coming together for the same reason, to protect something we all deeply care about. There’s a wonderful feeling of pride and power resonating through us. The spirits are high as we buckle down for the cyclone that is on its way and prepare for the main actions later in the weekend.

We’ve come here because we all – the whole planet – are running out of time. We’ve come here because there is no planet B or a spare atmosphere we could replace and wrap our Earth in. We’re here because we know everything on this planet is intricately linked and can only exist in coexistence, which requires a stable climate. We are here because the new mine on Denniston Plateau, proposed by Australian-based mining company Bathurst, if developed, will create the same amount of emissions as the whole Aotearoa New Zealand produces in a year. Over 25 years it will extract 20 million tons of coal – in an era when the rest of the world is transitioning off fossil fuels, when global warming has already overshot the predicted models, environmental collapse is happening all around us and climate events are threatening the livelihoods and homes of our communities and communities around the world.

The mine is one of the listed fast-track projects. The fast-track legislation circumvents the laws designed to protect the environment and health of people. There is no participation process in the fast-track legislation. The legislation prevents public scrutiny and bypasses environmental considerations. Fast track is an assault on the environment and democracy and it has so far, resurrected certain projects that have previously been declined as they proved environmentally unacceptable. This is happening in a country that is perceived on the world stage as the “green queen” with strong democratic roots.

The specific piece of land where the mine is proposed is public land. It belongs to all New Zealanders and is managed on behalf of Kiwis by the Department of Conservation. It is public conservation land, put aside for protection in perpetuity due to its natural values. When DOC was established in 1987, huge parts of public conservation land were put aside, waiting to get properly assessed and classified either as National Park, Conservation Area, Ecological Area or any other classification designed to protect the natural or historical values of the public conservation land. This never happened, but a reclassification process started a couple of years ago. A national panel of experts suggested this land becomes a Conservation Area –  assuring the lowest protection possible – while environmental NGOs like Forest and Bird, Environmental Defense Society and Federated Mountain Clubs among others, suggested this to be a Scientific Reserve – which protects the land to even greater extent then National Park and permits no mining. This classification was suggested due to the incredible ecological richness of the area, with many endangered and endemic species living here, many of which have not even been identified yet.

I am no scientist or ecologist. But I am a lucid observer and I have spent my entire life roaming through natural landscapes. I can tell, usually just by moving through the land, how special and alive the land is. Coming to the camp spot, I was blown away by the landscape we traversed. Sandstone pavements, rocky outcrops, bonsai-looking bush stunted by extreme living conditions, and the wild Tasman Sea in the distance. This 40 million years old plateau laying 600-1000m high, is a place close to heaven – braided with streams and gorges, dappled with areas of high wetlands, extensive pieces of land mass rolling out as far as an eye can travel, with areas covered in red tussock, takahe’s favourite delicacy. The landscape seems surreal – something I have not seen elsewhere in New Zealand and I have tramped in many places. Looking at it from the birds-eye perspective on Google Earth, it stands out from afar – if you let your eyes travel up and down the island you will not see anything like it. It is truly unique.

And so is the abundant life up here. As we make our way to the camp, a fern bird, an extremely rare bird, flies by. This is a sanctuary for Great spotted kiwi, rare skins, ancient velvet worms, giant snails, weta, geckos, rare moths … The area is, as surveys in the past showed, of high ecological value. Many species here have not been identified yet. Bathurst’s mining project, if it goes ahead, will cause irreversible biodiversity loss, habitat and landscape destruction, increased carbon emissions, and acid metallic drainage that needs critical management for 100 years. Endemic plants and animals will be lost. This will all happen on Aotearoa New Zealand public conservation land with no public input. The profits will go to a private company, with 90% overseas shareholders.

And that’s why we are here. When there is no option for advocacy and dialogue anymore, action needs to take place. Our encampment is a compact flock of colourful tents in an area that was used by Bathurst as an operational pad for the nearby mining. From where we’re camped, we can see the hill, covered in bush, that will be beheaded, if this project goes ahead. There are about 70 of us here and I don’t know one single person, but walking through the camp, I feel I have slipped into a community, where everyone knows each other and a strong quiet sense of camaraderie resonates between us. As the rain settles in, so do we, under the big marquee, where the learning and collaboration begin. We’re learning about facilitation and de-escalation strategies. We discuss and practice how to react and talk to media, police or locals if any of them turn up. We look at the issue from many sides – what would you say to a local who works in the mine and needs to put food on the table? We head out for a botanical walk, to familiarize ourselves with what is at stake. More learning follows – about the context of the fast track bill, the mining plans and Bathurst. A workshop facilitated by a local environmental group takes us through details and different perspectives of the issues – what we are about to lose, what are the gains, and what are the false gains portrayed by Bathurst and the government. The hardest part to digest it the presentation from a university researcher. We are warned it will be grim, so we brace ourselves.

Tim, who has dedicated his master’s study to climate change, takes us step by step through the facts – what we already know and what the models show. It is not pretty. In fact, it is terrifying. We have already passed 1.5-degrees warming and plants have reached the peak of carbon dioxide sequestation in 2008. Proportion absorbed has been declining since. Emissions would need to fall by 0.3% per year, just to stand still, though at the moment, they are increasing by 1.2% per year.

It is no better on the fauna front. The total global insect population has declined by 41% in the last decade and animal populations have experienced a 70% average decline since 1970. Human-made materials now outweigh Earth’s entire biomass. The amount of plastic alone is greater in mass than all land animals and marine creatures combined. Looking at the effects of global warming in New Zealand, the most jarring one is the loss of  1/3 of the entire glacier mass since 2000. The sea water heatwave in 2022 pushed the water temperature to 4.4 C above average, causing the deaths of millions of marine sponges in Fiordland.
At 3C or more of heating by 2050, there could be more than 4 billion deaths, significant sociopolitical fragmentation worldwide, failure of states – with resulting rapid, enduring, and significant loss of capital – and extinction events.

I’m listening and the facts, one by one, are landing heavy on my mind, to a point, when I feel my cheeks are hot with tears. I don’t dare to look around, as I feel that will break me, but I sense the heaviness has landed on everyone and the mood has shifted. The question is not if we are crashing or not, the question is how hard we crash.
A support and debrief session is offered after Tim’s talk to help us process what we’ve heard. I fear it will make it worse, so I walk out. When I return, I find Tara completely red-eyed. She hasn’t stopped crying.

Ironically enough, our climate justice action coincides with the arrival of yet another cyclone. Despite persistent rain and Tim’s talk, the spirits remain high. We prepare the camp for even more rain to come – the tents are readjusted and secured by rocks, and the drainage channels are dug while the dinner is being cooked. There is very little need for coordination and instructions. Everyone seems to make themselves useful with not much talking. People see work and pick it up. Things just get done. I’m impressed with how well everything is organized and how smoothly everything seems to flow. Regular check-ins make sure we  see how we’re feeling collectively. No one seems to be taking too much space or air time. It seems all egos got left at the bottom of the hill. I wish every workplace would function like this. Decisions are made with everyone’s input, but somehow very quickly and nimbly. I have worked in many places and been part of many groups.  I have never experienced such cohesion and a sense of unity before. I haven’t even imagined something like this is possible.

Sunday is spent in preparation for the main two actions on Monday – to climb up the towers and occupy the coal buckets bringing coal from Stockton mine, stopping operations for 24 hours, which later on extends into 60 hours, and an expedition to a Happy Valley, a place of resistance and protest about 20 years ago, an operating Cypress mine today. While climbers are practising their rope work and the support crew is preparing for the off-site action, the deluge begins. The rain is hard and persistent. Only later we hear about the flooding of the roads down below the hill, in Waimangaroa. The fire brigades are called out throughout the night. The camp remains standing. As the night falls, there is a curtain of water surrounding us. We gather in one and only dry communal space, normally used as a kitchen. There’s a feeling of excitement in the air, but also the anxiety of what the morning might bring.  Everything feels heightened. Dinner is being cooked while the climbers and action groups are frantically packing in the dark, walking around with their climbing gear and harnesses still on. It is impossible not to feel in the way, or be constantly pushing through a mass of damp bodies. The camp turns into chaos for a few seconds, we’re all blinding each other with torches, frantically trying to pack or help with packing.

Photo: Neil Silverwood

The next day I wake up to the news that the bucket crew made it in the buckets. Feeling happy are not words that I use lightly, but there is no other way to feel right now. The steely sky and the promise of more rain fade away by expanding happiness and pride. Only a small group of us remain at the camp – we’re holding the fort throughout the day, as the news starts trickling in. First is the news from our groups – the bucket team, the  Happy Valley team, and the support crews. Then the media news starts popping up. And then suddenly, it’s all happening – Bathurst, Department of Conservation, our lawyer, police – everyone is on board and communicating. We get visitors to the camp – friendly locals bring us doughnuts and come to show their appreciation and support.

As I am washing the dishes, and listening to the news from our crew in the field, a robin lands on my head. A brief light touch, almost fleeting, yet a certain blessing. I know I am where I’m supposed to be.

I can still feel the brush of wild and divine on my head. It’s a reminder and a plea. To keep returning to Denniston.

I know I am not the only one, returning. We are many. And we will not give up.

Denniston, by Ben Lowe

Denniston is the most amazing place, maybe the most amazing place in New Zealand. It is also the most pivotal place in New Zealand. The reason it is so amazing is that the flora and fauna there is unique. The reason it is so pivotal is because it perfectly encompasses the two sides of the climate debate. Under this unique environment is coal, the most climate-destroying fossil fuel.  To lose here is to lose everywhere.

The post Denniston Plateau Occupation, Easter 2025 appeared first on Coal Action Network Aotearoa.

The group applauded the efforts of the 70-strong encampment that’s been on the Plateau since Friday, protesting Bathurst’s plans to trash the plateau and ultimately consign the emissions from the 20 million tonnes of coal to the atmosphere.

“Bathurst Resources cannot be trusted: it’s in a legal battle with its mining partner Talley’s and it’s still in an ongoing mediation with Environment Canterbury about its terrible behaviour at Canterbury Coal mine where it breached numerous consents, and was forced to close the mine,” warned CANA organising group member Cindy Baxter.

“Everywhere you look, this company has gotten itself in trouble, and there’s absolutely no reason to believe it will act any differently on the Denniston Plateau. But ultimately, Bathurst is on a hiding to nothing: the world is moving away from dirty coal,” she said. 

Bathurst has a number of projects planned around the country, but none of them should go ahead, she said. 

CANA is among groups that are organising a protest outside Bathurst’s offices at 1 Willeston St, Wellington in support of the Denniston 70’s efforts, on Tuesday 22 April (12.30pm).

The post CANA voices support for 70-strong Denniston protest, questions Bathurst Resources’ integrity appeared first on Coal Action Network Aotearoa.

(For the purposes of this article, I’m considering BT Mining, their jointly-owned subsidiary with the notorious fishing company Talleys, as part of Bathurst – despite the fact that Bathurst and Talleys are fighting in the courts.)

Having a compliant Government, and a Prime Minister who mouths all the mining industry’s talking points like the world’s most complacent sock puppet, has certainly helped Bathurst’s prospects and lessened the continuing grumbling from their investors about inadequate dividends.

The Government has included two planned Bathurst mining projects, Buller Plateaux and North Rotowaro, in the list of projects in the Fast-Track Approvals Act.

But all is not rosy in the garden. The problem for Bathurst is that, despite their and the Government’s worst efforts, Aotearoa is slowly continuing to move away from the use of thermal coal – that is, coal burned to provide heat for industrial processes and energy generation. For many years, the three biggest domestic users of coal have been Genesis Energy’s power station at Huntly; Bluescope’s New Zealand Steel plant at Glenbrook; and Fonterra’s many coal-fueled milk powder factories. But in recent years:

• Genesis has been experimenting with replacing coal with wood pellets at Huntly, and has recently announced a partnership to produce the necessary biomass – though there has also been talk of extending coal use at Huntly, so that’s a mixed bag.
• Under continuing pressure from consumers, especially in Europe, Fonterra is sticking to its programme to end all coal use at its factories by 2037. It ended its coal use in the North Island in November 2024, and is now beginning to tackle its largest South Island milk powder factories.
• New Zealand Steel is planning to commission its new electric arc furnace in late 2025 , potentially reducing a million tonnes of emissions from burning coal per annum.

While there are many smaller users of thermal coal in Aotearoa, and none of them should be let off the hook to decarbonise, such cuts by the “big three” have left the future of thermal coal mining in Aotearoa looking increasingly short-term. The Government, despite adding metallurgical coal to its critical minerals list against the advice of the consultants who drew up the draft list, left thermal coal off the recently-released critical minerals list.

So Bathurst are betting big on mining metallurgical (coking) coal, which the Government did include on the critical minerals list. This coal would not be for domestic use – confusingly, New Zealand Steel uses thermal coal, not metallurgical coal, in its current Glenbrook furnaces. It’s all about export, and Bathurst is betting that it can navigate a world increasingly breaking into geographic power blocks and find markets for coking coal. That is very bad news for a large stretch of beautifully, ecologically valuable land on the West Coast – if they’re allowed to get away with it.

I expect you’ll be hearing plenty more about Bathurst’s Buller Plateaux projects this year, so in this article I’ll focus on their other projects. What else has Bathurst got going on?

• Bathurst’s second fast-track project is the North Rotowaro coal mine near Huntly. This is near to their existing Rotowaro mine, and if it goes ahead, would result in around a million tonnes of GHG emissions per year – so it is a substantial project that we’ll be working hard to oppose with the tools available to us.
• Separately, they have started on a three-year project, called Waipuna West, to extend the existing Rotowaro mine.
• Bathurst’s Maramarua mine, also in Waikato, has an existing M1 pit and an M2 pit that they’re going to be seeking resource consent for. There is a long and distinguished history of protest against coal mining at Maramarua.
• Their other North Island facility is their corporate head office at 1 Willeston St, Wellington, just a well-fed post-lunch stroll down from delivering personally-labelled lumps of coal to the Beehive.

Turning to Te Waipounamu, besides its big investment in the Buller Plateau, Bathurst has the Takitimu mine in Southland. Takitimu is due to close in the 2027 fiscal year, and we are currently trying to establish whether, in the light of the decline in South Island thermal coal use, Bathurst is planning to go ahead with the possible nearby New Brighton mine, which Forest and Bird has taken legal action against.

Bathurst has more corporate offices in Christchurch, a large coal yard in Washdyke, Timaru which appears from aerial photos to be exposed to the open air.

The Bathurst commercial “ecosystem” is, to put it mildly, a target-rich environment for both lawyers and activists – and just in case you thought Bathurst didn’t have enough appetite for risk, they are also trying to develop two large coal mines in that latest of geopolitical hotspots, Canada.

Right now, Bathurst Resources is a bit like Gollum. They can see the ring. They wants it, precious, yes they does. But it isn’t quite in their grasp yet. It would be such a pity if a crew of Eowyns and Frodos and Aragorns were to rise up, stand against them, and send them falling into the Mount Doom of failed companies and melted corporate dreams.

The post Bathurst Resources: Poised Above The Precipice appeared first on Coal Action Network Aotearoa.

let’s bulldoze this bill into oblivion

Minister Chris Bishop has already said he would listen to the wave of opposition to the Bill, which appears to be coming from all sides, even from independent government watchdogs like the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment and the Auditor General, both concerned at the extreme power the bill could give to Ministers.

Tim Jones and Tom Powell presented our submission to the Select Committee last Friday (here’s a copy of it – have a read), repeating the issues we are most concerned with: it’s anti democratic, it undermines and ignores Te Tiriti, and would let things like the Te Kuha coal mine get past the consent stage, despite already having been turned down by the likes of the Environment Court.

And on Friday the Ombudsman also weighed in, stating the unchecked ministerial powers could put the country on a “a slippery slope”.

“On the one hand, I can see why speed achieves what’s wanted with a beefing up of executive power, but unless that’s matched by oversight and accountability, then I think democracy itself is the loser.”

Meanwhile, without even having final legislation passed, the government invited companies wanting to be listed in the bill to apply. That deadline was last week. As Dame Anne Salmond pointed out:

“They are behaving as if the select committee process has already been decided, and public concerns about this draft legislation have been dismissed in advance.  That is an insult to tens of thousands of New Zealanders who are writing submissions opposing this bill, and to the select committee process as well.”

So we need to keep up the pressure. Sign up here to join the March for Nature in Tāmaki Makaurau, 1pm on June 8
