Few words

Mike This is the 3rd and final video in our suicide prevention series. In the first two ads the focus was firmly on connection (reminding people they are loved) rather than intervention (I’ll fix the problem). During the series the little boy stood in the background as his big sister connected with stressed whanau, reminding them they are loved and valued. This video powerfully demonstrates the impact our actions have on the little people in our lives. Kids don’t learn by what we say, they learn by what they see.

Bottling expansion could see 9 billion litres of pristine Christchurch water sold overseas A Chinese-owned firm planning to bottle billions of litres of Christchurch water is building a second factory in the city.

“Cloud Ocean paid $2277 for its 1.57 billion litre annual water take.” That’s not a smart trade/resource management. This sounds like one of the things we’ll look back at in ten years and say “Oh… yeah, that was a really dumb way to do that.” from Pera Barrett http://bit.ly/2t20ieB via IFTTT

Mike We made this video (as part of a series) to show how simply you can talk to someone who may be having suicidal thoughts. We were trying to demonstrate that when having a conversation on this topic the most important thing is not to try to ‘fix’ the problem but to show that you care. ❤️❤️❤️ Suicide Prevention is Everyone’s Business
