Last week, the government announced that they would not be making changes to the way we calculate our emissions targets according to the advice of the Climate Change Commission.
One change that was rejected was the inclusion of international shipping and aviation emissions; the flying and shipping that is so key to New Zealand’s economy, through tourism and elsewhere, is excluded from our emissions targets, despite being a significant chunk of our emissions.
This means, however, that in the face of our Paris Agreement commitments, the Government has opted to keep working with an incomplete picture of our economies emissions.
Monday Wire Producer Alex spoke to Professor of Philosophy at the University of Otago, Lisa Ellis, about these emissions, and what this rejection means for how we present ourselves and neighbours and a member of the international community.

Welcome to our latest dig with K&J are back with another three hours of global funk, soul, and rhythm that spans four decades and about as many continents. This week's selections run from Karriem Riggins' jazz-inflected collaboration with GENA and Liv.e on "Circlesz" to the sunbaked Braziliana of Vania Bastos and Chico De Abreu, with detours through Tokyo city pop courtesy of Kaoru Akimoto's "Wagamama na high heels" and some proper Nigerian funk from Mannix Okonkwo. Whether it's the yachty sophistication of Hamish Stuart's "Midnight Rush" or the raw energy of Goat's "Ouroboros," every track here earned its spot through one criterion: prone to induce ear-worm infestations.
Press play on this bcast for the full experience: from which pressing of Ramsey Lewis you need to hunt down to the scene that birthed Jimmy Salcedo's Colombian psychedelia. Forty tracks that prove the best funk has no borders, and a universal visa!
