Farmers in New Zealand claim they will be forced to cut production, due to new emission reduction targets announced by the Ardern government on Wednesday. Ms Arderns 30 year plan to tackle climate change takes a softer stance on methane, which is emitted by livestock, compared to other greenhouse gases. The zero carbon legislation sets a target for all greenhouse gas emissions to be reduced to net zero by 2050. Methane emissions will still need to be reduced by 10 per cent by 2030, while a provisional target of between 24 and 47 per cent by 2050 has been set. Image: News Corp Australia Read More Our Apps
