New Zealand government announces independent review of methane targets for 2050 climate goals.

New Zealand's government has announced an independent review of methane targets, aiming to guide domestic climate change goals by 2050. Critics, including the Green Party, view this move as a delay tactic, while the government claims the review complements a Climate Change Commission review of 2050 targets. The independent panel of experts will investigate agricultural biogenic methane science and advise on a consistent approach to no additional warming.
