That the only course of action to halt this decline was for him as an \u2018out doors man\u2019 - was to finally be impelled to start a political party to exact
\n positive change.<\/p>\n
Hence the birth of the OutdoorsParty.co.nz<\/a> Please Note this interview mentions: DOC = the In this interview you will hear the timbre of Alan\u2019s voice as he warmly articulates his love for our nation, our warm national character, our countryside The essence of this interview is on this web page and basically says it all. https:\/\/www.outdoorsparty.co.nz<\/a>\n <\/p>\n Walking and climbing many areas in the hills, ranges and mountains of NZ and specialising in being both a fishing and hunting guide. Alan has a very Quickly.<\/p>\n Healthy land, clean water, rivers and lakes and seashores<\/p>\n Regenerate fish in both inland waterways and along our coasts.<\/p>\n Speaking for hunters and fishermen and all activities of the great outdoors.<\/p>\n Low impact, high value agricultural production.<\/p>\n No more trawling of our coastal fisheries.<\/p>\n Establish environmental limits to economic growth<\/p>\n Focus on quality, not quantity in everything we do.<\/p>\n A society where health, happiness and compassion are our measures for success.<\/p>\n A moratorium on 5G Technologies. <\/p>\n Halt aerial toxins of 1080, clean up the rapid decline of our inshore fisheries, and the importance to clean up our streams, rivers and lakes. Including That all of these back into a healthy environment and ecology which equates to land, forests, and backcountry areas. Hence the name \u2018Outdoors Party.\u2019\n <\/p>\n Also realising that many people leave the cities on weekends and holidays to spend much needed time in the great outdoors.<\/p>\n Dairy Farming <\/p>\n Alan mentions that the dairy farming industry, which is the backbone to NZ\u2019s economy has to be challenged - especially on the Canterbury Plains where Dirty Dairying Exposed in the New York Times <\/p>\n https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2019\/08\/15\/opinion\/new-zealand-cows.html<\/a>\n <\/p>\n Salmon farming in NZ - is the cause of a huge amount of issues - from feeding low quality food to salmon, use of antibiotics, to the fish becoming Commercial fishing is taking from the NZ \u2018Commons\u2019 - which belongs to the NZ People - 'We the people own this resource\u2019 - however it has been essentially Hear about how the 'Recreational Fishing Reserves' that the National Party promised for the people, that were never taken up and followed through when The word kaitiaki in Maori is mentioned by Alan - a very good word Kaitiaki is a New Zealand M\u0101ori term used for the concept of guardianship, for the It needs to be adhered to. <\/p>\n Halting the aerial toxin 1080 being dropped by helicopter over large areas of the country which causes huge collateral damage to other animal species He talks about the spin doctors from the Department of Conservation and the Green Party saying that they are totally accepting of this poison as the SPCA - has come out against 1080. But the Forest and Bird Society of all organisations, are so pro 1080 that they will not engage in finding other Listen to Alan talk about 1080 - he will give you a graphic understanding by a witness who has seen deer that have eaten and taken in this poison and Also talked to, was that 1080 is an extremely emotional issue - that has ferocious arguments coming from both sides of the \u2018debate\u2019 - because this With the coming planned roll out of 5G technology across NZ - the Outdoors Party \u2018is out there alone\u2019 in comparison to all the other main political Even though there are rapidly increasing numbers of very courageous scientists and doctors who are prepared to call out the industry for not doing Who benefits from this tech? Alan says, 4G is quite ok for most of us. To take action people in NZ are talking about switching phone companies - Vodafone People are starting to organise in local groups across NZ and they are happening as this is being read. Sue Grey also belongs to the 'outdoors party'
\n Department of Conservation - MPI = the Ministry of Primary Industries and - \u2018Winston\u2019 = the leader of the NZ Party, which in the last election - 'held
\n the balance of power' and that he was able to forge an Alliance with the Labour Party and the Green Party which enabled Jacinda Ardern to become the
\n Prime Minister of NZ.<\/p>\n
\n and the magnificence of our scenery. However he also voices his disappointment of the Governmental agencies tasked to take care of our cherished
\n environment and do the right thing for the future of generations to come. This interview was very enjoyable from the standpoint that Alan talked
\n about a duty of care - that I as the interviewer became far to involved and talked far too much - when I needed to just ask questions - so I wish
\n to apologise to Alan and listeners - for too much talk time.<\/p>\n
\n intimate relationship with the land and nature. This is where he has been able to dwell and think-through what needs to be done to restore our
\n environment and bring through the old New Zealand values of yesteryear.<\/p>\nMajor Platforms <\/h3>\n
\n hunting, land use in the public interest.<\/p>\nChallenges<\/h3>\n
\n the irrigation sucks so much water out of the rivers and cows waste leaches so easily back down through the fragile soil - that contamination is
\n escalating beyond the ability to control. He states that the industry has to take responsibility for it actions as it is majorly undermining our
\n land and waterways as well as our future. <\/p>\nFish & Salmon Farming<\/h3>\n
\n diseased and that below the enclosure - high amounts of pollution that looks like a desolate lifeless wasteland.<\/p>\n
\n taken over by an exceptionally small number of players. This is resulting in a huge waste of other species of fish, caught as \u2018by-catch\u2019 that are
\n injured and returned to the water - but many end up dying - floating on the surface to eventually sink to the bottom of the sea. See further down
\n this posting. <\/p>\n
\n they were in power. That there was no intention of this being actioned - and the National politicians breaking promises - year after year. <\/p>\nKaitiaki<\/h3>\n
\n sky, the sea, and the land. A kaitiaki is a guardian, and the process and practices of protecting and looking after the environment are referred
\n to as kaitiakitanga.<\/p>\nAerial Toxins - 1080 poison<\/h3>\n
\n eating and taking in this poison and dying horrendous painful deaths.<\/p>\n
\n only option we have in this country. Yet, there are a number of small regions where the locals have used trapping and \u2018targeted\u2019 other poisons
\n and they are highly successful - because with 1080, vast numbers of birds are dying - such as the native kea.<\/p>\n
\n alternatives - other than continue supporting of \u2018carpet bombing\u2019 the bush and dropping tonne\u2019s of poison green pellets where it gets into bush
\n covered ravines and waterways - as they have no control of it - and as the poison pellets are made of cereal, birds are drawn to it.<\/p>\n
\n of the long horrific, agonising, torturous death these poisoned animals undergo that in Alan\u2019s words is - unspeakable. <\/p>\n
\n issue is fervently being fought to actually save our fauna - however the process is so vociferous that after the 1080 argument dies down - the
\n opposite actually takes place - silence and quietness throughout the entire area of the bush where 1080 is dropped. <\/p>\n5G<\/h3>\n
\n parties. They are calling for a \u2018moratorium\u2019 on the deployment of this technology. Especially as there has been no independent health studies that
\n have been peer reviewed by independent scientists and doctors free from industry ties. At the time of this interview all the other main political
\n parties have shown no interest in the health effects that this technology can\/may cause. They are all pro 5G. <\/p>\n
\n \u2018due diligence\u2019 on the intensity of the frequencies that will be saturating all areas. This includes the rapid escalation of transmitting tower
\n numbers being ubiquitous along all streets and neighbourhoods everywhere - many nest door to homes of families, schools and children\u2019s preschools.\n <\/p>\n
\n is going to be the first to deploy 5G across the country and so many Vodafone customers are changing to '2 Degrees\u2019 - as they say their company
\n is not going to 5G. This is one way to boycott the big guys. <\/p>\n
