University of Canterbury: we respect the right to protest for our students and staff BUT we want to maintain access to our services, so everyone needs to use their ID to enter buildings.

@TreeStarMan The "How problematic is mineral mining for electric cars?" thing is not a myth. Lithium extraction is trashing very fragile ecosystems in Northern Chile, to the point of no return (I know people who study them).

As always, electric cars are not really a solution. Electric public transport, bikes, etc are a much better option.
