New Zealand’s Greenhouse Gas Inventory is the official annual report of all anthropogenic (human induced) emissions and removals of greenhouse gases in New Zealand. The inventory measures New Zealand’s progress against obligations under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Kyoto Protocol.

The common reporting format tables (CRF tables) for the inventory (1990-2013) have been published in July 2015 due to issues with the CRF software. To ensure consistency between the inventory and the CRF tables, the inventory originally published in April 2015 has been updated in July 2015. The updates do not affect New Zealand’s emission trends. The updated inventory includes corrections of typographical errors identified since its original publication in April 2015.
