Maori Party Co-Leader on Peak Oil
Tariana Turia
Maori Party Co-Leader
Scoop are running a press release from Co-leader of the Maori Party, Tariana Turia, acknowledging the Maori Party's commitment to peak oil issues and giving an overview of their policy.
No revelations here, but it's good to see a party other than the Greens taking an active interest in preparing for the coming energy crisis. Hopefully this will stimulate more debate in parliament.
Labour, despite recognising the need to make immediate changes, have been far too quiet. I suspect they aren't willing to broach the subject this close to an election, fearing that it will hurt them at the polls... which is cowardly, and sadly, not surprising.
