New Zealand: Why is it proposing to tax cow burps to fight climate change?

Bambi learned from the Lebanese media, Naharnet, that New Zealand is proposing to tax cow burps to fight climate change (https://www.naharnet.com/stories/en/292927-new-zealand-proposes-taxing-cow-burps-angering-farmers)? Can’t this country, whose economy is based on agriculture (https://www.statista.com/topics/5311/agriculture-industry-in-new-zealand/) find a smarter way to deal with the changes of the climate?

The Naharnet article above described the anger of the farmers. Bambi can only have compassion for them. Had she been a farmer, she would have been angry too. Had she been a cow, not a deer, she would be laughing at the naivety of our world leaders.
