New Zealand’s Carbon Neutrality Pledge

Posted on: Mon 7 Dec 2020

Earlier this month, New Zealand officially declared a climate emergency and pledged that its public sector would be carbon neutral by 2025.

According to Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, the declaration came about because of the climate change findings of an intergovernmental panel.

However, critics have been quick to note there is no plan as of yet of how this will be achieved.

New Zealand correspondent from 95bFM Oscar Perress joins Breakfast‘s Zoe Kounadis and Tom Mann to discuss this and other news happening across the Tasman.
