“The rgrass package allows us to interact with GRASS tools (and data) serving as an interface between GRASS and R. The rgrass package source code can be found at: github.com/OSGeo/rgrass. In this fast track tutorial, [they will teach you] how to use GRASS from R…”

Yet another fast-track application has headed to the cooker coalition for rubber-stamping.

This time a rich Aussie who owns a holiday home in Aspen Grove plans to build a funicular railway up one mile creek to Bowen Peak. He plans to plonk 800 units at the top, and a small skifield on Bowen Peak.

Min Yang, the man behind the liquidated Jade Lake Fernhill development is also involved.

Queenstown's racing to be as tacky as the Gold Coast.

A few months ago, when Shame Jones started mouthing off about Freddy the Frog, I said there would be plenty of us willing to lie in front of bulldozers. Or do any kind of nonviolent direct action necessary to stop corporations from mining against the advice of conservation scientists, and the will of the communities who live in the area.

I'm still up for it, who's with me?

Serious and not at all corrupt. /s

"MBIE’s response to the OIA showed the advisory group gave preliminary approval to 36 mining and quarrying schemes in one meeting in June that lasted just 3 hours.

Notes recording its decision to preliminarily approve the controversial proposed iron-sands seabed mining scheme off Taranaki for fast-tracking ran to only 18 words."

Six months ago Kawarau Gibbston outside Queenstown finally received dark sky certification.

Now that certification is in danger after Luxon's losers fast-tracked a plan to plonk a complete village of 3,000 people, right at the bottom of Coronet Peak.

While this development will benefit Rod Drury and a few other rich listers who always want more money, their greed will add to the ongoing environmental destruction of the Queenstown area.

What's (another) little lie among friends? 🤥

TTR has previously also said that mining the seafloor would cause no harmful effect on the environment. (yeah right) 🪸🐙🐳

Are we really going to allow them to #fastTrack this scam?
No, we're not. ✊🏽

'#BloodSuckingVermin'? Isn't that what you'd call a company literally drilling the seabed to extract resources? 🤔

Also:
“If they want to chain themselves anywhere, come to my office, this is a political issue.”
Is that an invitation, Mr Jones? 😈
