ExportNZ: Submission to Climate Change Commissioner Regarding 2050 Review and IAS Inclusion

ExportNZ does not support including international aviation and shipping (IAS) emissions in
the 2050 target in the current Review of the 2050 target. There are a number of issues outlined
below, and that have already been identified by the Climate Change Commission which lead us to
believe there needs to be more work internationally before we can commit to including the emissions
in the 2050 Goal and levying the sector. We support New Zealand’s commitment to international
initiatives led by the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) and the International Civil Aviation
Organisation (ICAO). We support reconsidering this issue in the near future once there is an effective
global pathway to transition to green transport fuels.
