Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says action on climate change question of 'life or death'The Climate Change Commission today unveiled its final advice to the Government on how and where to slash New Zealand's greenhouse gas emissions. The Climate Change Commission has recommended winding down petrol car imports by 2032. A central part of the commission's advice was also to recommend New Zealand's first three five-year emissions budgets, taking us out to 2035. The Climate Change Commission has recommended that, by 2035, all light vehicles entering the country would need to be EVs. Whatever the outcome, Kiwis can expect some radical change this decade, as the need to tackle the climate crisis becomes all the more urgent.
