Climate change

New Zealand Climate Science Coalition

     · Last update 2019 (as of 1/2026)

     · From Wikipedia: "The New Zealand Climate Science Coalition was a climate change denial organisation

     in New Zealand, formed in 2006 with aim of "refuting what it believes were unfounded claims about

     anthropogenic global warming".[1] The Coalition came to prominence in 2010 when it challenged the

     methodology and accuracy of NIWA's historical temperature records in court. The Coalition lost the case,

     could not afford to pay costs awarded against it and was forced into liquidation. There is an unrelated

     website called the New Zealand Climate Science Coalition which is an American blog also written by

     climate change deniers. The American website links to a different URL to the original URL associated with

     the New Zealand website which no longer exists."

“Aotearoa”?

While New Zealand remain's the country's formal name, many have taken to calling the country Aotearoa New Zealand to incorporate and highlight the indigenous Maori name (see here for a helpful backgrounder).
