Greenpeace has long advocated for this climate killer to be managed at source.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>Industrial agriculture is responsible for half of New Zealand\u2019s climate pollution and intensive dairy alone is responsible for half of that. Much of this climate pollution is caused directly or indirectly by synthetic nitrogen fertiliser, which enables excessive cow numbers.<\/p>\n\n<p><br>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatecommission.govt.nz\/our-work\/advice-to-government-topic\/agricultural-emissions\/agricultural-progress-assessment\/\">Climate Change Commission\u2019s advice on agricultural emissions<\/a> released today recommends that the Government should price synthetic nitrogen fertiliser emissions at the manufacturer and importer level in the NZ Emissions Trading Scheme as soon as practical, instead of within a farm-level pricing system.<br><\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cGreenpeace and <a href=\"https:\/\/petition.act.greenpeace.org.nz\/agriculture-fertiliser\">48,000 New Zealanders <\/a>have been calling for central government to phase out synthetic nitrogen fertiliser. The acknowledgement from the Climate Change Commission that urgent action is required on this climate polluter is overdue but welcome\u201d, says Rose.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cAgriculture should be brought completely into the existing Emissions Trading Scheme as that\u2019s the most efficient and equitable way of dealing with emissions, putting all climate polluters on a level playing field.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cThe agri-industry\u2019s alternative, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/story\/the-case-for-sinking-he-waka-eke-noa\/\">He Waka Eke Noa, is still a lemon<\/a>,\u201d says Rose.<\/p>\n\n<p>The Climate Change Commission\u2019s report acknowledges significant work would be required to achieve He Waka Eke Noa goals and has \u2018low confidence\u2019 it will be met on time. It needs IT systems, administration, compliance, enforcement and regulations to be developed. Its success is undermined by difficulties perceived by and a lack of buy-in from farmers, according to the Commission.<\/p>\n\n<p>On the other hand, the Climate Change Commission has high confidence that there are few barriers to implementing processor-level emissions pricing as part of the NZ ETS.\u2019 Rose says: \u201cThe Climate Change Commission\u2019s recommendations add weight to Greenpeace\u2019s call to urgently phase out synthetic nitrogen fertiliser. Phasing out this climate killer is the number one priority.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cThe government needs to reject He Waka Eke Noa itself which is simply a failed attempt at diverting responsibility away from intensive dairying, and as the Commission says He Waka Eke Noa will not be practical to implement by its own deadline.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t<section\n\t\t\tclass=\"boxout post-15019
