Cars, Coal, Cattle, Cows
Main Climate Change Causes in NZ which we can do something about are the four Cs:
Cars
Coal
Cattle and cows.
Electric or at least hybrid vehicles are the answer. Government needs to do more to encourage the transition from petrol and diesel fueled vehicles where possible and cutting ALL taxes associated with car purchases would be a help to reduce those overinflated purchase costs.
Get rid of all coal usage and close all coal mines is something the Govt could enact.
The Govt should place more scientific resources into reducing the methane gases that cattle and cows emit. Encourage less consumption of beef is worthwhile. There are alternatives to cow's milk and pet food and treat products need not contain beef and beef by-products.
We as individuals in a small populated country might not be able to do much towards reducing climate change conditions but our Government can make a little difference on a world scale.
