Often triggered by concerns about energy security and affordability, businesses are increasingly striving to understand and implement sustainable business practices.
As conditions shift in response to global consumer and business demand, growing demand for primary resources and climate change, businesses are reviewing their energy usage and seeking new low carbon practices and production technologies. The roles of science and innovation in this transition are vital.
New Zealand’s emissions trading scheme (ETS) demonstrates our country’s commitment to addressing climate change.
BusinessNZ closely monitors the effects of the ETS.
