Lan Pham: Green Party MP stress importance of combating climate change amid declining support - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

The Greens are reiterating the importance of combating climate change, concerned Kiwi buy-in appears to be fading.

An Ipsos report shows the proportion of New Zealanders concerned about the impact of climate change in Aotearoa has fallen from 80 percent two years ago - to 69 percent.

Greens Environment spokesperson Lan Pham says ignoring the climate crisis, will not make the problem go away.

"We know communities are really struggling at the moment - and it's hard for people to think of the future when they're actually having to focus on surviving the cost of living crisis."
