A Hawke’s Bay farmer is calling on Hawke’s Bay citizens to join A RALLY OF HOPE on Wednesday in Napier.
It’s time to stand up, says Elsthorpe Farmer concerned citizen Greg Hart.
“The rally is part protest against Tag Oils plans to drill and frack “The Bay” but equally it is a celebration of all we are privileged to have in Hawke’s Bay with our beautiful landscape, water and climate and of course all the amazing people that make up our society,” he says.
“The ‘Brighter Future’ promised during the last election campaign is not going to happen by creating more climate change and corporate profits for overseas companies.
“Therefore it is time to rally to send a strong message to councils and government that drilling for oil and fracking is not going to create a better future for our children,” says Greg
“Quite simply when making decisions like drilling for more oil we should ask is this part of the solution or is this part of the problem?
If it isn’t sustainable it isn’t the future we want.”
This is the Hawke’s Bay we want to regenerate and invigorate to pass on to future generations.
The rally will start at Civic Square Napier at 12pm Wednesday 25th and move to the Hawke’s Bay Regional Council building by 1pm, to attend the meeting and TAG presentation to council.
