    New Zealand’s nuclear-free reputation is not for sale

    For Prime Minister Luxon to erode new Zealand's proud nuclear-free legacy in exchange for a trade deal is a betrayal of our history and our values.

  • Welcoming ceremony for the Greenpeace flagship vessel, the Rainbow Warrior in the Marshall Islands, marking the start of a six-week mission around the Pacific nation to elevate calls for nuclear and climate justice; and support independent scientific research into the impacts of decades-long nuclear weapons testing by the US government. Escorted by traditional canoes, and welcomed by Marshallese singing and dancing, the arrival of the Rainbow Warrior marks a significant moment in the shared history of Greenpeace and the Marshall Islands — 40 years since Greenpeace crew evacuated over 300 people from the Rongelap atoll to Mejatto island, after toxic nuclear fallout from the Castle Bravo test rendered their ancestral lands uninhabitable.

  • Greenpeace opposes the Treaty Principles Bill in its entirety because we believe that protecting Te Tiriti is the responsibility of everyone who calls Aotearoa New Zealand home and because it is inextricably entwined with our mission to protect nature and peace. Te Tiriti o Waitangi is a “promise of two peoples to take the best possible care of each other.” Through it, Māori gave the Crown the authority to set up a government for her people who had settled or were to settle in Aotearoa while promising the protection of ongoing Māori sovereignty over their lands, territories and resources. It is a vital agreement for everyone who calls Aotearoa New Zealand home, and it is the responsibility of all New Zealanders to honour it. Since 1840, successive governments have breached that foundational agreement. The Treaty Principles have provided a framework to make progress in addressing those breaches and the painful truth of the history of colonisation, including its present-day impacts on both people and nature. This attempt by the ACT party to unilaterally rewrite these principles represents a huge backward step in the reconciliation of our nation and the coming together of our cultures. It should be rejected. Anyone who has been welcomed back to Aotearoa New Zealand, via the carved gateway (tomokanga) and birdsong at Auckland International Airport, will sense that this Bill strikes at the very heart of our identity as New Zealanders.
