Last week the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment, Simon Upton, released a climate change report suggesting a major change in the way New Zealand tackles climate change through the Emissions Trading Scheme.

OraTaiao is a group of health professionals calling for urgent and fair climate action with real health benefits for New Zealanders now and in the future. Rhys (Reece) Jones, a Public Health Physician and Senior Lecturer at the University of Auckland, and Co-convenor of OraTaiao, spoke to Jemima about the report.
