June 2019 the global network of C40 Cities Report June 2019 referred to the impact of ‘urban consumption’ as to greenhouse emissions and the need to ensure urban/city reduce their greenhouse gas emissions in line with an internationally agreed limit. This includes: Urban consumption as a key driver of global greenhouse emissions having a significant impact  beyond their geographical borders by influencing global supply chains. Stating that C40 Cities represent 10% of global emissions when accounting for consumption based emissions. Therefore C40 cities have a strong plan in place to significantly cut emissions directly within their geographic boundaries. These are emissions measured  by what is consumed in cities, where urban consumption is to be halved by 2030 (7 years from now). Where high income C40 cities must decrease their consumption by 2/3rds within the next decade, to adopt sustainable consumption patterns. Cities have already set targets to take meaningful action to reduce local emissions from buildings, energy, transport, waste, however its taking much more action than this

C40 Cities key consumption categories are that cities are to target food, buildings and infrastructure, clothing and textiles, private transport, aviation and electronics, also household appliances. Reduce the number of new clothing items an individual can buy each year. Dietary change – lower meat and dairy consumption, reduce the number of flights an individual can take, reduce car ownership. The report builds on ‘The Future of Urban Consumption in a 1.5c World which includes food as the biggest source of human consumption based emissions stating that food related emissions could increase by 38% by 2050 under a ‘business as usual’ scenario. That 60% of food emissions are agricultural, 16% relate to electricity use, 9% to fossil fuel production, 5% to transportation. Food types are documented as animal based food representing approx. 75% of food emissions against 25% consumption of plant based foods.

Therefore C40 cities encourage, support the consumption of plant based foods, stating it is sustainable to eat much less meat and dairy that animal sourced food needs to decrease significantly. Make diets rich in nuts and vegetables. An average of 2,500 Kcal per person a day. The problem there is that depending on height, weight, metabolism, what sort of work one does depends on how many calories one may need to consume. (That throws that one out with the babies bath water.

As for plant based food research has found that this is higher in sugar and often lacks the important nutrients of real meat. That those that consume plant based foods fell below the daily requirement for calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc and B12. Our bodies are designed to absorb protein from animal sources much more efficiently than from plants. The Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry has shown that we do not absorb as many essential or non essential amino acids from meat substitutes as we do from real meat itself. The C40 Report that reducing food emissions from food consumption requires actions from all actors- government, business, cities, civil society and citizens. That government are to influence the availability and affordability of foods working with regulators conveners and educators to affect change. That urbanization/ cities will shape urban food consumption. Addressing food related consumption based emission in C40 cities 10^th September 2019 report (Salesforce.com).

He Puapua (Co-governance) in New Zealand also known as ‘Vision 2040’ – To be actioned well before 2040  all relates to New Zealand Government’s signing of the UNDRIP in 2010. 143 countries voted in favour of the UN Declaration. There were 11 absentee’s. Australia, Canada, New Zealand and America rejected the UN DRIP. The planning of the UN Declaration began in 1982. The declaration prohibits discrimination against indigenous peoples. Gives indigenous peoples full and effective participation in ALL matters that concern them. And all matters do concern them.

ROSEMARY BANKS was NZ’s Representative  speaking at the UN, she explained why New Zealand had decided to reject the Declaration. She said that “NZ is unique, we have the Treaty Of Waitangi between the Crown and NZ, it has been NZ’s founding document since 1840. That the Treaty has acquired great significance in NZ’s constitutional arrangements, law, government activity. NZ has a system for redress, accepted by both indigenous and non-indigenous citizens alike. Claims to over half of NZ’s land area had been settled. That NZ had already been implementing most standard in the Declaration for many years. .  She shared the view that the Declaration was long overdue, and the concern that indigenous peoples in many parts of the world continued to be deprived of basic human rights. (13th September 2007)

Rosemary Banks said “It is with deep regret that NZ is unable to support the text in the declaration. NZ has difficulties with 4 provisions within the declaration. Articles 26, 28, 19 and 32.

1)THEY WERE FUNDAMENTALLY: INCOMPATIABLE with NZ’s Constitutional and Legal arrangements. Treaty Of Waitangi, the principle of governing for the good of ALL its citizens.

2) This included the provisions of land and resources in NZ and the Right of Veto over the State

3)Article 26 states that indigenous peoples had the right to own, use, develop or control lands and territories that they traditionally owned, occupied or used.

NZ’s rejection was “This would mean the entire country of NZ would be caught in this scope of the article. As it appears to require recognition of lands now legally owned by other citizens, indigenous and non-indigenous. Does not take into account traditions or customs nor land tenure.

Article 28 is on redress- compensation does not take into account as to lands legally owned legitimately by others. And overlapping indigenous claims. Again the whole country would fall under the scope of  Article 28. The declaration implied Indigenous peoples had the right to veto over democratic legislature and ‘national resource management. The declaration implied to classes of citizenship. Indigenous people would have the right to veto that others do not.

Rosemary Banks said that New Zealand is unable to support the declaration as its incompatible with democratic processes, legislation, constitutional arrangement, is not reflected in New Zealand’s State practices and and would not be recognized as general principles of law in New Zealand.

In 2010 John Keys secretly arranged for Pita Sharples co leader of the Maori Party to travel to the UN to sign the UNDRIP. Since this time co-governance in New Zealand has expanded significantly without any permission or consent of the people of New Zealand. This has happened under National and Labours watch.  Under this Labour Government it has been accelerated and promoted even more.

15th September 2007 Horomia spoke in the House on the UNDRIP. He warned about signing the UNDRIP and also confirmed what Rosemary Banks  had said at the UN as to the reason for rejecting the UN Declaration. This being a Labour Government now support and fully promote the UNDRIP (Co-governance of NZ) as does Green Party. National also,  they are less talkative about it.

Willie Jackson has referred to many workshops and hundreds of participant’s meeting to discuss and working out plans around Vision 2040.

He said the next step would be the drafting of an official plan – work which would be done by Te Puni Kōkiri, the National Iwi Chairs Forum’s Pou Tikanga and the Human Rights Commission – over the next couple months. Jackson said the plan is more than co governance, and refers to health justice education.

Central Banks are in most countries worldwide. The IMF have significantly helped achieve what Central Banks have become, totally independent and in practice no accountable to any financial system. To create a public consensus for structural reform they must purposely create a recession and to prolong it as well, thus creating a mass abuse of power, is extremely costly, manipulative and can be severely damaging to people lives

Crisis structural changes in policies and banking systems a roadmap to banking systems becoming a Central Bank Digital Currency transformation

The Bank of International Settlements are referenced to central bank rates which are higher interest  rates, this forces other institutions to increase their interest rates, makes the cost of borrowing so high that business becomes impacted negatively.

Each Central Bank I n each UN Nation States  their national currencies are owned by the State. Declining growth and corporate profit risks weakening a country’s currency. The Reserve Bank NZ (NZ Central Bank) has now been named ‘Te Patea Mahuta’. This is New Zealand’s future of CBDC (Reported 6/12/2021). Includes the description of key terms  used to support the RBNZ

Tane Mahuta has become the mandate, the future of money in NZ. RBNZ  have reported that Maori official reference will be made to Tene Mahuta when it comes to the future of money in NZ. Describing ‘Te Toto’ as the sap of the tree that represents the Reserve Bank of NZ future banking system. The Reserve Bank Of New Zealand states that Tane Huta represents the ecosystems in NZ from a financial structure of RBNZ (Central Bank Of NZ). Referring to high level policy making RBNZ state it would be useful to establish CBDC  in NZ. Stating the RBNZ is the ‘Kaitiaki o te toto’ the steward of money in NZ, a dynamic monetary financial system, a stable anchor for convertibility, an opportunity to broaden central bank money which will be available for All individuals, communities, businesses. As they refer to high policy opportunities, referring to CBDC as  to  improving technological forms, thus a  CBDC future for NZ. CBDC Pay and Save a gateway to the formal financial sector, supporting wider inclusions by prioritizing government programs

CBDC and Ecosystems as a distribution model as acting as a catalyst in the payments of ecosystems enabling NZ to take part in global initiatives that use CBDC payments innovation system and to crowd out other innovations. 2021 RBNZ was looking for feedback on their Tane Mahuta narrative, the design to incorporate CBDC, advertising themselves and their stewardship of money as holistic, this underpinning their CBDC role in NZ. A Reserve Bank Of NZ (RBNZ) with strategic elements represented in Taner Mahuta (the objective is CBDC). Tane Mahuta the money tree that is controlled by the State. Crisis events, a series of crisis events to change, transform the banking structural system.  Freedoms and CBDC in competition as Governments protect those in privileged positions to extend control over peoples money, hence also peoples lives.

This is the digital revolution, transformation of transforming currencies and finance. The professor of Trade Policy and Economics of Cornell University gave a very blunt assessment of CBDC’s saying “Central Banks will take money out of peoples accounts to conduct monetary policy. There is no free society. Your money is NOT really your money, your property rights are subservient to the ‘Public Good’, this is the necessity of managing the nations economy”

CBDC protects governments that have given themselves a privileged position to exert control over peoples money, hence control over people themselves. Central Banks are an agent for the government in terms of implementing fiscal policy. CBDC is the fiscal agent of the government. RBNZ stating it is critical to regulate Cryptocurrency because it poses a risk to CBDC. CBDC leaves your information at risk of cyber attacks, devaluation and increasing  censorship, eroding purchasing power, it is a great risk to our freedoms. The RBNZ has been wholly owned by the government since 1936 when it was established by an Act in Parliament and constituted under the Reserve Bank Act 2021.

Otago University Prof David Murdoch spoke about the concept of the One Health Approach, saying this is going to be sooner than you think, this One Health  Approach to Disease surveillance. Describing this as an integrated, unifying approach for Humans, Animals-Wild and Domestic, Plants, Oceans, Estuaries, Rivers, Soil, Air the whole Eco-system.

An ecosystem is a geographic area where plants, animals, and other organisms, as well as weather and landscape, work together to form a bubble of life. This is how the academics, government explain eco-systems to a child “An ecosystem is made up of the interaction of all living organisms (like animals, plants, and bugs) in an area with all of the non-living organisms (like water, dirt, rocks, and the sun).

Academics, Governments, NGO and corporate ventures etc., are using a ‘One Health Approach to ward of any future threats (ANY)

So, academics are saying ““Increased urbanization, overcrowded living conditions, increased global migration, and the increasing push of humans into animal habitat has created an environment that promotes the transmission of infections and made the COVID-19 pandemic possible.”. BUT  this is what they are promoting the future slums of called Smart Cities. C40 Cities with mass migration entrenched into urbanization. (Reference Mayor Migration Declarations- Mayors Migration Council- Mayors Mitigation with C40 Cities).  Auckland has won a C40 Award for their acceleration and promotion of the 100 city C40 City Network under Phil Goff which was resigned before the new mayor took over. (Wayne Brown).

C40 Cities network Dietary Plan-Plant Based Foods targeting farmers within highly populated areas. No Farmers No Food.. ah well eat tree’s and beetle bugs this is barking up the wrong tree so to speak.

Professor David Murdoch says “COVID-19 has thrust into focus the impact of humanity’s changing relationship with the environment”. In other words the ‘One Health Approach’

NO SURPRISES HERE:- Prof David Murdoch Otago University Flagship Research Council of New Zealand  funded by ..Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance- Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation – Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment

The Lancet One Health Commission called for transdisciplinary collaboration promoting and generating solutions to complex health challenges. COVID19 Pandemic recognizes the fundamental connectedness of humans, animals and the whole eco system.   CRISIS  CRISIS   CRISIS   CONTROL EVERYTHING

Of course, if you do not oppose the concept of a One Health Approach this equates to ‘Silence is Consent’
