Agriculture is the only sector of economy that isn’t part of an emissions pricing system. Biogenic methane and nitrous oxide are both incredibly harmful greenhouse gases that have a huge impact on climate change. We want to do what the last three decades of government have failed to do - hold our largest polluters accountable for the mess they are profiting from.
But you know as well as I do that those with vested interests, and the associated industry groups, will continue to fight progress on climate every step of the way. And they’ve got deep, deep pockets to do it.
Plus, the opposition parties are filling their coffers too: National this year alone has received more than $2.2 million in donations greater than $30,000 from a mere 23 people/entities. They'll continue to use their deep pockets to fund misinformation and disinformation campaigns - all so they can keep putting profit before people.
If they win, all that we’ve collectively worked so hard to achieve - on climate, biodiversity and inequality - will be gone! As will be the opportunity to do even more!
We are not willing to let this happen.
Your donation will make all the difference towards strengthening our party and setting ourselves up for a more effective election campaign next year. Aotearoa needs bold, decisive action on climate - and for us to be able to do even more, the Green Party needs to be stronger than ever.
Our children, our grandchildren, and those yet to come are relying on us to win a sustainable and equitable Aotearoa for them to call home. Together, let's build that future.
