Greenpeace is slamming the decision to give the important Oceans and Fisheries portfolio to New Zealand First after Shane \u201c the apostle for industry\u201d Jones landed the Oceans and Fisheries Minister appointment today – and says Christopher Luxon has made a grave error putting the Act Party\u2019s \u201cdinosaur of delay\u201d Andrew Hoggard even partially in charge of the Agriculture and Environment portfolios. The organisation also has a word of warning for the new Energy Minister, Simeon Brown.<\/p>\n\n

On Oceans and Fisheries:<\/h2>\n\n

Greenpeace campaigner Ellie Hooper says, \u201cNew Zealand First has proven time and time again that it cannot be trusted to act with integrity on fisheries issues.

\u201cThe party has previously received tens of thousands of dollars in donations from commercial fishing companies, and Shane Jones has previously called himself an \u201capostle of industry.<\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n\n

Last time NZ First was in Government, it was revealed that the party received tens of thousands of dollars in donations from fishing company Talley\u2019s <\/a>\u2013 and then acted in ways that supported fishing industry interests over ocean health.<\/p>\n\n

This included delaying the rollout of cameras on boats<\/a>, which would hold the fishing industry accountable when coral or endangered animals such as dolphins, sea lions and turtles get hauled up or killed in nets. They also pushed to get a Talley\u2019s boat that had trawled illegally in protected areas taken off an international blacklist of disreputable fishing vessels<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

This election cycle, NZ First received a donation of $50,000 from P J Vela, founding member of the commercial fishing company Vela Fishing.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cThe decision to leave this vital portfolio in the untrustworthy hands of New Zealand First is the height of irresponsibility. We are experiencing an ocean crisis – due in no small part to destructive industries like commercial fishing,\u201d says Hooper.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cNow, the new Luxon-led government has shown they have absolutely zero intention to turn that around and will let NZ First be the mouthpiece for commercial fishing and resist ocean protection at every turn.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cThis is the opposite of what the vast majority of New Zealanders want – which is the ocean protected from the ravages of bottom trawling, better transparency, and more areas set off limits for conservation. From the high seas to our blue backyard, the movement to protect the ocean is strong and isn\u2019t going anywhere. <\/p>\n\n

\u201cAlmost 100,000 New Zealanders have called for an end to bottom trawling on vulnerable habitats like seamounts – and together with those people, we won\u2019t stop calling for the ocean to be protected from destructive fishing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

On Agriculture:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

Greenpeace campaigner Amanda Larsson says, \u201cChristopher Luxon has made a grave error naming the dinosaur of delay Andrew Hoggard Associate Minister of Agriculture and of the Environment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

\u201cWith Andrew Hoggard most recently in charge, Federated Farmers has long been the attack dog in the Dairy Industry\u2019s predatory delay of climate action and water protection. They\u2019re one of the main reasons New Zealand has such badly polluted rivers, such dangerous levels of nitrate contamination in rural drinking water and such high levels of climate pollution.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cThe question on everyone\u2019s minds will be: is Andrew Hoggard capable of acting in everyone\u2019s interest as the Government is supposed to do, or will he continue shilling for big polluters?<\/p>\n\n

For the last three years, Greenpeace has been offering a community and mail-in water testing service for rural bore users to test the nitrate levels of their drinking water. <\/p>\n\n

Scientists warn that 800,000 New Zealanders are at risk<\/a> of exposure to hazardous levels of nitrate. Up to 100 cases of bowel cancer and 40 deaths every year could be attributable to nitrate contamination of drinking water. Emerging evidence shows that nitrate contamination at levels well below the current New Zealand drinking standard presents a risk of reproductive impacts on babies<\/a> in utero and of bowel cancer<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cEveryone has a right to clean drinking water but, in handing Hoggard the reins on this important portfolio, Luxon has shown he\u2019s willing to stand by while rural communities’ drinking water continues to be poisoned by nitrates from unregulated fertiliser and dairying.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cGreenpeace will continue to expose the impact of intensive dairying and fertiliser on rural people\u2019s health. We will keep advocating for healthy drinking water for all.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

On Oil Exploration:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

Greenpeace campaigner Amanda Larsson says \u201cThe commitment from all parties in the new Government to bring back offshore oil and gas exploration in Aotearoa is at odds with science and public opinion, and threatens the very future of life on earth.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

\u201cWe all want to pass on a safe and stable future to our kids, but instead, we\u2019re seeing a climate crisis unfolding all around us. The new Minister for Energy, Simeon Brown, must maintain the oil and gas ban to safeguard the climate we all depend on.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

\u201cNew Zealanders faced a National Government hellbent on oil and gas exploration before and we s\ucceeded in fighting off each oil major one by one.  Brown should have learnt his lesson from the last time National were in Government – we will resist again.\u201d<\/p>\n\n

Greenpeace has recently launched an open letter warning the oil industry<\/a> to stay away that has been signed by over 13,000 people.<\/p>\n\n
