With this decision on oil and gas exploration, Shane Jones and Christopher Luxon have signed up to Trump\u2019s Climate Stupidity Club.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cWell I\u2019ve got news for Shane Jones: climate change is real, paracetamol does not cause autism, fossil fuels need to be phased out, and renewables are much cheaper than fossil fuels. Jones might worship Trump\u2019s inane ramblings but New Zealand needs to base its energy policy on reality, not MAGA dogma.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cIn the midst of a wave of deindustrialisation, resulting from a failure to develop a proper energy strategy, the Government is playing Trumpian culture wars by blowing the horn of fossil fuels that will never solve our energy challenges.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cFossil fuels are a climate disaster, and require massive taxpayer-funded subsidies. The Government spent $300 million cleaning up the Tui oil field, and has offered up another $200 million for gas exploration.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cIts time to bring back the Gas Transition Plan and the NZ Battery Project that Luxon abandoned in 2023,\u201d says Norman. \u201cIt\u2019s time to dump Trans Tasman Resources\u2019 seabed mining project, which has seen two international offshore wind generation companies leave New Zealand. It\u2019s time to embrace a rapid rollout of solar, storage and energy efficiency.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cTo bring back oil exploration now is like trying to bring back the fax machine. Fossil fuels are outdated, expensive, and are driving climate chaos. The Government should be building clean, affordable renewable energy, not dragging us backwards.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cGas is already the most expensive form of electricity generation,\u201d says Norman. \u201cThis is a giant leap backwards that will cost households and the climate dearly.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cShane Jones and Christopher Luxon can try to lure Big Oil back &#8211; but people power kicked every single international oil giant exploring for new oil and gas out before, and we will do it again. We will defend nature.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p>More than thirty thousand people have signed a Greenpeace open letter pledging to resist the oil and gas industry should they return to explore for new oil and gas in New Zealand.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<section\n\t\t\tclass=\"boxout post-61546  sticky-bottom-mobile collapse show\"\n\t\t\tid=\"action-card\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-category=\"Take Action
