About these numbers
Industry and household emissions are Stats NZ's environmental-economic accounts: emissions from what each industry and household produces and uses, measured in CO₂ equivalents. They're quarterly, so they're newer than the official greenhouse gas inventory, but they're on a different basis (for example, they don't include forestry removals).
Change compares the latest 12 months with the 12 months before. Points of change are each source's change divided by total emissions a year earlier.
