General consultation questions
0.1. What do you think is working well in New Zealand to reduce our emissions and achieve the 2050 net zero target?
Please explain your answer here.
Absolutely nothing, except the govt spending taxpayer's money making climate alarmists rich
0.2. The Government is taking a ‘net-based approach’ that uses both emissions reductions and removals to reduce overall emissions in the atmosphere (rather than an approach that focuses only on reducing emissions at the source). A net-based approach is helpful for managing emissions in a cost-effective way that helps grow the economy and increase productivity in New Zealand.
What do you see as the key advantages of taking a net-based approach?
As above, nothing is achieved as man-made climate change does not exist.
What do you see as the key challenges to taking a net-based approach?
Key challenge is how the taxpayers can stop govt from wasting their money
0.3. What, if any, other sectors or areas do you think have significant opportunities for cost-effective emissions reduction?
Please write your answer here
Government, to cancel their climate change plans and focus on real issues, such as the road infrastructure and housing
0.4. What Māori- and iwi-led action to reduce emissions could benefit from government support?
Please write your answer here
Cancelling to climate change plan will benefit everyone, why single out Maori?

1.1. What opportunities do the proposed initiatives and policies across the sectors offer for Māori- and iwi-led action to reduce emissions?
Please write your answer here
Nothing is achieved as man-made climate change does not exist. Why single out Maori, are they special?
1.2. What additional opportunities do you think the Government should consider?
Please write your answer here
Cancel climate change money wasting and focus on things that can benefit everyday Kiwis, such as housing and the terrible road infrastructure
Chapter 2: Tracking our progress towards meeting emissions budgets | Te aroturuki i tō tātou koke i te ara whakatutuki i ngā tahua tukunga
2.1. Current modelling suggests that with a changed approach, the first emissions reduction plan is still sufficient to meet the first emissions budget. What, if any, other impacts or consequences of the Government’s approach to meeting the first emissions budget should the Government be aware of?
Please write your answer here
That they are wasting taxpayer money and should cancel all proposed plans
2.2. What, if any, are the long-term impacts from the changes to the first emissions reduction plan on meeting future emissions budgets that should be considered through the development of the second emissions reduction plan?
Please write your answer here
There is no long-term impact, for example the sea levels has not risen on 100's of years, why would it now?
