Petition request
That the House of Representatives investigate an energy rationing scheme such as Tradable Energy Quotas (TEQs), which we believe could address both potential shortages of fossil fuels and the climate emergency; and note that 163 people have signed similar petitions.
Petition reason
The IPCC calls for dramatic reduction of fossil fuel use to ensure a safe climate, which would also reduce biodiversity loss and pollution of land, air, and water in New Zealand. In our view the surest, fairest, and simplest way to do this is to ration fossil fuels via Tradable Energy Quotas (TEQs). For details see www.degrowth.nz/blog/teq.
