Oh, dear. Our Maori people are being dealt another blow.
That’s the impression given by the headline on an article in The Post headed Carbon plan ‘damaging to Maori”.
The report by Glenn McConnell says the Government is about to release controversial plans to reform the carbon market,
“… which have already led to legal challenges and comparisons to the foreshore and seabed saga.”
What’s this struggle about?
A major legal battle has sparked up between the Government and Maori forestry companies over proposals to stop pine trees from earning carbon credits, which are then cashed in through the Emissions Trading Scheme.
Oh. The carbon plan is not “damaging to Maori” , as the headline would have us believe – it is upsetting for Maori forestry companies.
