On September 23 2014 I found myself walking alongside a certain James Shaw at the welcome pōwhiri for new MPs in parliament. Green Party co-leader James Shaw. The credit for the enduring political support for the Zero Carbon Act in no small way sits with James. James Shaw speaks to media after the third reading and passing of the the Zero Carbon Bill, November 07, 2019. Why stop at the Zero Carbon Act and the traditional bipartisan approach to national security?
