There is consultation open right now on the Zero Carbon Act! It's an idea to make meaningful reductions in New Zealand's greenhouse gas emissions, and make us carbon-neutral by 2050. The idea of the Act came from Generation Zero - a youth organisation dedicated to action on climate change. In this episode, Laura Somerset from Generation Zero gives some advice and guidance to help you understand the Zero Carbon Act. It's everything you need to know to make a submission telling the Government what is important to you in climate change legislation. You can make a submission before 19 July 2018 using Gen Zero's handy web form: http://www.generationzero.org/zca_submission
