Our Goals
Ō mātou whāinga
Our environment is a highly complex system of interdependent relationships, which is why we know reducing carbon emissions, adapting to a changing climate, and restoring indigenous biodiversity should be approached together rather than separately.

This diagram shows examples of the links between emissions mitigation, climate change adaptation and biodiversity restoration.

Biodiversity
Healthy ecosystems support rich biodiversity, protect people from the impacts of climate change and capture carbon from our atmosphere. However, our biodiversity and ecosystems are also vulnerable to the effects of climate change.

Mitigation
We have started the journey to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions by 44% by 2030 (against our 2019 baseline) and achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.

Adaptation
Rising temperatures, altered precipitation patterns, and more extreme weather events all mean we need to make a concerted effort to prepare and adapt.
