With this review, the Government is asking us to ignore the housefire and instead focus on measuring how much new petrol they\u2019re pouring onto the flames,\u201d says Greenpeace spokesperson Amanda Larsson.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cAny sane person would turn off the petrol pump and scramble to put out the fire &#8211; not watch the meter. That fire is burning up our only home, and our kids are inside.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>Livestock is the single biggest source of human-made <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/story\/methane-the-invisible-gas-that-cooks-the-climate\/\">methane<\/a>. Reducing methane associated with meat and dairy is a critical lever that will influence how quickly or slowly the world heats up in the near term. Methane is a superheating gas, around 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide over a 20-year period. But it is relatively short-lived, which means that if we drastically cut methane emissions now, we can pull the climate emergency brake with an immediate effect on slowing temperature rise in our lifetimes.<\/p>\n\n<p>Larsson says, \u201cWorking out how much we should be reducing our climate pollution is not a theoretical mathematical experiment. It is a moral choice about how many lives we are going to save, both here in Aotearoa, in the Pacific and all around the world.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cThis report effectively concludes that if the rest of the world doesn\u2019t cut emissions ambitiously, then New Zealand doesn\u2019t have to either &#8211; because the report is measuring the wrong thing. It doesn\u2019t account for the fact that every fraction of a degree of warming we avoid adds up to millions of lives saved.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/press-release\/fonterra-exposed-as-major-player-in-global-attempts-to-undermine-climate-action\/\">recent investigation by UK-based Changing Markets Foundation<\/a> revealed that the livestock industry has been very effective at delaying political action to reduce emissions from the meat and dairy sector, both here in Aotearoa New Zealand and globally.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cThis is what happens when you let polluters write the policy. In every space where we need to be taking rapid action to reduce emissions, the foxes are running the henhouse. It is no coincidence that this is happening when Andrew Hoggard, former head of the anti-environment lobbying group Federated Farmers, is now an associate environment minister.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cThe methane review is designed to disguise political ideology as scientific fact. It was set up to bypass the independent scientific advice of the Climate Change Commission because that advice didn\u2019t say what the Government &#8211; and the livestock industry lobbyists who wrote their policy &#8211; wanted to hear.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cIf the government won\u2019t hold polluters to account, then people will. People are increasingly taking to the streets and the courtrooms, putting their bodies on the line to shut down polluting industries. This will only escalate further,\u201d says Larsson.<\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/publication\/methane-review-panel-review-science-target-greenpeace-submission\/\">The Greenpeace submission to the Methane Review Panel on the Review of Methane Science and Target can be found here<\/a>. <\/p>\n\t\t\t<section\n\t\t\tclass=\"boxout post-66348 \"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-category=\"Take Action Boxout\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-action=\"Image\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-label=\"n\/a\"\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"cover-card-overlay\"\n\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/petition\/petition-stop-fonterra-using-palm-kernel\/\" \n\t\t\t><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/09\/eddb415e-gp0strviu_medium-res-1200px-1024x684.jpg\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsrcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/09\/eddb415e-gp0strviu_medium-res-1200px-600x401.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/09\/eddb415e-gp0strviu_medium-res-1200px-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/09\/eddb415e-gp0strviu_medium-res-1200px-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/09\/eddb415e-gp0strviu_medium-res-1200px-510x340.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-aotearoa-stateless\/2024\/09\/eddb415e-gp0strviu_medium-res-1200px.jpg 1200w\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 358px, (min-width: 780px) 313px, 88px\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\talt=\"Landcover, forest clearance and plantation development in PT Megakarya Jaya Raya (PT MJR) palm oil concession.
