Greenpeace is condemning the National Party\u2019s agricultural emissions policy as \u201cyet more predatory delay<\/a>\u201d, saying that \u201cthe policy is an abject failure to address agricultural emissions and tackle the escalating climate crisis.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

Christine Rose, Greenpeace climate and agriculture campaigner, says \u201cNational\u2019s policy is a dangerous denial of the science and reeks of dairy industry influence. We are running out of time to tackle the climate crisis, and the need for action grows stronger every day.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

\u201cNew Zealand\u2019s biggest climate polluter is Fonterra and the dairy industry. The sector\u2019s\u00a0emissions of superheating methane have to be dealt with now, not some time in the future. We have the solutions. We just need the will from all political parties to get on with the job.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cA credible agricultural emissions policy would start with immediate action to reduce cow numbers and phase out synthetic nitrogen fertiliser, supporting a transition to more plant-based, regenerative organic agriculture.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cUltimately, this year\u2019s election will be a climate election. All political parties must take this crisis seriously and prioritise urgent climate action that genuinely reduces emissions. National\u2019s agricultural emissions policy fails to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n
