There is absolutely, categorically, nothing that the small nation of New Zealand can do (or cease doing) that will have any detectable impact on climate change. And the same goes for Australia!
World's annual (combined) greenhouse gas emissions - 50,000 million metric tonnes.
China's annual (combined) greenhouse gas emissions - 9,877 million metric tonnes.
New Zealand's annual (combined) greenhouse gas emissions - 82 million metric tonnes.
Australia's annual (combined) greenhouse gas emissions - 533 million metric tonnes.

I know, but think how good it makes all those virtue signalling people feel about themselves.

I think it's admirable that small countries are contributing to the global effort, but the logistics of taxing bovine emissions just beggars belief. Will it be a pay as you "go" tax? Will farmers be rewarded for producing low emissions beef? How will emissions be measured? What kind of tax return will be involved?
No, it's actually true.
