The Climate Change Response Amendment Act 2008, also known as the Emissions Trading Act, came into force on Thursday 26 September. As such, the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) came into effect as of the same date. The ETS is the price-based mechanism for regulating greenhouse gas emissions. The scheme involves all significant greenhouse gases and all sectors of the New Zealand economy (Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry).
