New Zealand wants to tax farmers for livestock’s emissions

As part of New Zealand’s efforts to combat climate change, PM Jacinda Arderns government propose farmers to pay for their livestock’s methane emissions. – This is an important step forward in New Zealand’s transition to a low emissions future and delivers on our promise to price agriculture emissions from 2025, Says Jacinda Ardern in a statement. The Animal production accounts for almost 15 percent of the world's total greenhouse gas emissions (according to livsmedelsverket.se). The meat and livestock industry are responsible for the emissions their business produce, and politicians are responsible to make decisions for our planet! Well done Jacinda Arden.

            I stopped eating meat at 15. North Americans especially need to cut down meat consumption and the price needs to reflect the real climate costs

              Negative externalities must be taxed so the cost of CO2 remediation is properly allocated.
