Greenhouse Emissions

In the latest development, New Zealand decided to reduce its carbon emissions by 50% by 2030 ahead of the United Nations COP26 climate conference on the evening of October 31 in Scotland's Glasgow. ''We're not immune to the impact of climate change, so it's critical we pull our weight,'' said PM Jacinda Ardern. Earlier, New Zealand had set the target to reduce emissions by 30% by 2030.
