The Government has unveiled a five-point strategy to deal with climate change. 

It focuses on infrastructure and community preparedness, clean energy, tech and nature-based solutions.

Some climate advocacy groups are calling it a kick in the guts, meaningless and contradictory.

Minister Simon Watts told Andrew Dickens that the strategy is more vague because it’s focusing on the big dots they want to focus on as a country, and the detailed plan will be coming in the next two weeks.

He said they'll be measuring their success via two targets, one being the end of next year, the other being the end of 2030.
