Well, in simple terms this is New Zealand going very bankrupt !

Meantime - China etc will still pump out their CO2. Let's face it they know that human CO2 emissions (being only 3% of total Global emissions) do NOT change climate.

What muppets. Good old NZ has committed to paying developing countries including China and India. Don't forget Singapore!

We should apply to be a developing Nation if they can. We practically are now thanks to the previous shambles that was running the last government.

This is absolute, pure madness!

New Zealand needs to look after it’s own. We have huge problems in health and education and underfunding in infrastructure. This money should be spent on New Zealanders. Certainly not given to the likes of China and India.

This is an absolute croc and we need to withdraw from the Paris climate accord.

All of our government ministers know about how much this will cost all of us,

But they don't break ranks.....yet,

The best thing for us would be to withdraw from the treaty and cancel all trading in carbon credits - it's so absurd to buy and sell something that has no real existence and is no use to anyone,...

Haha good story. I can’t believe these blood suckers and idiots represent NZ. The irony of hosting COP 29 in Baku is lost on these morons.

Why are we so poorly governed, I don’t think we really deserve these idiots do we??

Would be interested to know why you believe the hypothesis that human produced CO2 causes warming. I've never seen anything to convince me.

Don't really know Frank. I don't have any scientific credentials. Just an instinct I guess
