Can't help itself

Written by  The Hound

OPINION: Greenpeace claims that the appointment of Dr John Roche as the PM's Chief Science Advisor is handing the powers to polluters.

Are they serious?

If they bothered to read the press statement about Roche and looked up his CV, they would realise that he's a highly respected scientist internationally.

And, newsflash: working in the dairy industry is not code for 'polluter'.

Like your old mate, more and more people realise that the rubbish Greenpeace regularly sprouts is the real pollution.

Greenpeace's delusional missives about the environment leave the Hound wondering what will come next.

NZ needs growth and agriculture is the way forward, with good science the way to deliver the environmental outcome everyone wants.

People such as John Roche are key to this.
