Climate Aotearoa What's happening & what we can do about it

The science on climate change in Aotearoa New Zealand now and in the future, and what changes we all need to make.

Climate Aotearoa outlines the climate situation as it is now, and as it will be in the years to come. It describes the likely impact on the environment and on our day-to-day living situation.

It suggests the changes you can make for maximum impact, what we should be asking of our government and what we should be asking of our business community. In doing so, this is a hopeful book - actions can make a difference.
