NZ Climate Change Minister says there’s an ‘allergic reaction’ to climate credits

New Zealand’s Climate Change Minister James Shaw has called out the use of Kyoto carryover credits to meet Paris climate targets. New Zealand will become mostly carbon neutral by 2050 after the policy passed parliament last November. James Shaw - a co-leader of the Green Party - said he will always campaign for stronger climate change on the world stage, but conceded New Zealand was not in a position to be smug. Mr Shaw told Sky News around the world there’s an “allergic reaction” to the practice. Mr Shaw is taking a stronger position though over the use of carryover credits to meet climate targets. The Morrison Government has not ruled out using carry-over credits from Kyoto to meet its Paris climate targets. Image: AP Via news.com.au — Australia’s #1 news site https://www.news.com.au
