The Green Party is focusing on low-emission transport, resilient urban planning, and access to nature in its new "Climate-safe Communities" policy.

Key proposals include building light rail in Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch, and using new resource management legislation to ensure communities can withstand flooding and other extreme weather events.
