From the Silver Linings Department: emissions fall as fuel prices deter motorists.
"Stats NZ has released data for the April to June quarter, showing that [GHG] emissions across the economy fell by 2.9 percent, and by 5.3 percent for households alone."
Unfortunately methane emissions, primarily from agriculture, have not changed much.
Graphs in the article.
Also "Renewable sources accounted for 93 percent of New Zealand's electricity generation in the year ended June 2026, up from 85.6 percent the previous year."
