Robert McLachlan: Massey University Science Professor on Air NZ backtracking on their climate targets

The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB

Surprise and disappointment as Air New Zealand's 2030 climate targets go up in smoke.  It's backtracked on a plan to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 28.9% from 2019, with a 16.3% drop in absolute emissions.  Massey University Science Professor Robert McLachlan told Mike Hosking it's unexpected and sets a bad precedent.  He says it's a bit soon for the airline to pull out of a target it only set two years ago and made a big deal of at the time.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
