Just for starters:

1) ETS can lose consistency with our international commitments defined in the NDC.

2) Climate Change Commission no longer provides advice on emission reduction plans (ERPs).

3) Climate Change Commission will no longer run consultations on Emissions Budgets.

Now also on RNZ! A personal perspect on how the #BatshitBudget for science undermines and drives away the top science talent that helps us build a great nation. www.rnz.co.nz/national/pro...
Top scientist calls out woeful funding arrangements
A recent government science funding announcement hasn't impressed one of the country's top scientists, who says the country's best researchers are being driven overseas.

Great stuff - raises a few questions but it’s really a shame this analysis hasn’t been more visible and accessible. (It matches my intuition.)

Amongst other things, the croissants are pretty good there IMHO. Thanks!😊

There’s no particularly good transparent model of the NZ electricity system so we don’t know Onslow was better than more solar and wind (cheaper but intermittent) plus some smaller battery projects. It’s weird internationally that have zero hydro batteries, with so much potential. It was expensive!
