Jamie Mackay: The Country host on Denmark's plan to introduce a carbon tax on agriculture
Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Wednesdays
Denmark is moving ahead on plans to introduce a carbon tax on agriculture, with cattle farmers facing additional charges as a result. The bill suggests that farmers would be taxed at 300 DKK ($70) per ton of CO2 equivalent emitted from 2030, moving to 750 DKK ($177) by 2035. The Country's Jamie Mackay says the farmers will be unlikely to take this lying down - and they love a good protest. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
