Plant-based bubble bursts
OPINION: Talking about plant-based food: “Chicken-free chicken” start-up Sunfed has had its valuation slashed to zero by major investor Blackbird Ventures, and its products are no longer available in supermarkets.
Three protestors were escorted out of Parliament’s public gallery after heckling as a Green MP spoke.
They also draped large pink banners from the public gallery which read ‘Too Many Cows. Climate Election Now’.
They then issued three short blasts on a whistle and shouted the same “too many cows” slogan. It came as Greens co-leader Marama Davidson was asking a supplementary question to the Minister of Climate Change James Shaw. “Why are emissions falling?” she asked before the commotion kicked off.
The protestors were removed by security.
