To be frank, we are running out of time to address the climate crisis. Our Future of Transport Plan goes a long way to ensuring in New Zealand we do our bit to keep our planet stable.  We have a once-in-a-generation opportunity to make healthier, vibrant communities a reality while also tackling the climate crisis and rebuilding the economy after the COVID-19 pandemic. By making smart decisions now, we can deliver truly fast, frequent, low-carbon transport alternatives that put our communities on the...

We’re taking the health of our oceans seriously and our Thriving Oceans Plan sets out exactly how the Green Party will protect them so we all can enjoy them - now and in the future. Successive governments have allowed our oceans to become more under threat more than ever before in human history.  We know that in the aftermath of COVID-19, our recovery cannot be as simple as returning to “business as normal”. We need to invest in and build...

The Green Party is calling for this to double to ten days, so people can do their part by staying home and reducing the risk of spreading COVID-19.   

When all our energy comes from the sun, the wind, and the flow of rivers, we won’t need to burn the fossil fuels that cause the climate crisis. Our Clean Energy Plan is the first part of our transformational proposal to end the use of fossil-fuels in Aotearoa. It allows us to go further and faster on climate action by supporting all of us to move to clean energy. It empowers communities, businesses and families to create truly sustainable communities...
