New Zealand Is Taxing The Gas Animals Produce, Should Aus Follow Next?
New Zealand is set to tax farmers based on how much gas their animals produce!
The NZ Agricultural Greenhouse Gas Research Centre discovered ruminant animals are responsible for 71% of their agricultural emissions. To put that statistic into perspective, agriculture contributes to 50% of New Zealand’s total greenhouse gas emissions. So would you be happy to fit the bill when meat costs rise due to the farming gas tax?
