Draft emissions reduction plan "hot air and utter bullshit": October 14, 2021

Environmental groups and unions have said the government’s discussion document on New Zealand’s plan to become net zero by twenty fifty focuses too much on cutting transport emissions and instead letting agriculture and energy emissions off the hook.

The draft plan to make New Zealand net zero by 2050 includes measures to cut down car travelling and boost the number of EVs.

Greenpeace campaigner Christine Rose said the plan is not stepping up action on climate change and instead it is “hot air and utter bullshit”.  She spoke to Justin Wong.
