Māori climate change advocates are urging the government to be more ambitious after the release of a consultation document which it says will help shape the plan to reduce emissions.
The document looks at how the Crown can work better with Māori in responding to climate change and how the Commission advises that one of the first steps of the strategy should be for Government to support iwi/hapū and other Māori collectives to develop emission profiles.
India Logan-Riley from indigenous youth climate change group, Te Ara Whatu, says it's all been said before.
They spoke to Māni Dunlop, and hopes with the development of the Emission Reduction Plan - they will finally be listened to.
