With the climate crisis worsening, all countries including Aotearoa New Zealand should do as much as possible to reduce global warming.

 

As professionals passionate about Aotearoa New Zealand’s future prosperity and desirability, Kiwis in Climate is writing to urge the government to respect and maintain the cross-parliamentary approach to our legislated 2050 climate change targets, especially in the context of biogenic methane. 

 

We further urge the government to seek parliamentary agreement on strengthening these targets in the direction of the Climate Change Commission’s advice. Stronger climate action will benefit Aotearoa New Zealand. We strongly oppose any weakening of the legislated targets.

 

Our full argument and evidence are detailed in our open letter.
