350 Aotearoa is celebrating another fossil fuel divestment announcement today, with news that the Dunedin and Taranaki/Waikato Dioceses of the Anglican Church have become the latest to pledge their commitment to remove their money from fossil fuels at their annual synod meetings this weekend. Five Anglican Church Dioceses of New Zealand have now committed to divest.

Three experts - business journalist Rod Oram, TEAR Fund CEO Ian McInnes and VUW climate scientist James Renwick - lay out facts and stories about climate change and its impacts, explaining how financial investments in fossil fuel industry are directly connected with wrecking the planet.

Yesterday more than 70 people met at the steps of the Parliament to let the Government know that "you can't silence us on deep sea oil drilling". It was a response to the Governments plans to remove the right of the public to have a say on deep-sea oil and gas exploration permits.

This week is an important one - right now leaders of Pacific Islands are meeting in the Marshall Islands for the Pacific Island Leaders Forum. Their biggest focus is on how Pacific Islands are going to face the climate change - Marshall Islands Vice-President Tony de Brum has called on New Zealand and Australia to show leadership on climate change, saying "for us, climate change is already here."
