On the 10th of August the New Zealand government announced our emissions reduction target of 10-20% below 1990 levels by 2020.
In doing this they ignored public opinion at all their public consultation meetings where the vast majority asked for a target of 40% below 1990 levels.
Our lack of action will also damage our 100% Pure brand, which is being expanded from our tourism industry to cover almost all of New Zealand inc.
The EU may commit to 30% by 2020
The UK has committed to 34% by 2020
Germany has committed to 40% by 2020
Scotland has committed to 42% by 2020
and the USA has committed to 80% by 2050
New Zealand is being left behind in terms of action on Climate change, this will damage our international reputation, our international brand and therefore our economy.

I would say that if you want to argue against the scientific consensus on climate change you will need to provide proof for why human induced climate change is incorrect.
You haven't provided any proof. I am accepting the findings of the IPCC, NASA, NIWA and many other scientific organisations, some of which are of course government funded but that's not surprising.
The "somethings are bigger than politics" panel is actually a satirical image from the New Zealand 2008 election. Maybe try typing the phrase into google.
If we weren't wasting money on a referendum to make it legal to hit our kids and if the government would actually listen to public opinion when it does public consultation it'd be nice.
