The government yesterday introduced the highly anticipated Zero Carbon Bill to parliament. The much-anticipated piece of legislation sets targets that could mean huge changes to New Zealand's agriculture sector.

It commits a "split target" – aiming to reduce all greenhouse gas emissions, aside from methane from our farming sector, to net zero by 2050.

Sid, a Core Team Lead at Generation Zero working on the Zero Carbon Act Campaign, joined host Stewart Sowman-Lund this morning to talk about his reaction to the government’s announcement.
