- Promoting a national culture where people value and maintain healthy environments.
TARGET OUTCOME STATEMENT
Healthy, diverse and resilient ecosystems. New Zealand has healthy, diverse and resilient ecosystems that sustain nature and people. We understand and value our ecosystems, are environmentally responsible and have assured the long-term quality and capacity of land, marine, freshwater and air resources.
Examples of the contributions RS&T could make towards this target outcome:
-
Expanding the knowledge base of the state of New Zealand’s diverse environments, including air, water and terrestrial systems, and natural resources of significance to hapu and iwi.
-
Expanding the knowledge base of factors affecting ecosystem health, including urban development, contamination, and resource use.
-
Expanding the knowledge base of the determinants of environmentally responsible behaviour.
-
Developing effective and efficient environmental management systems for increasing biodiversity and repairing and rehabilitating damaged ecosystems.
-
Developing technologies and services for efficient and sustainable use of environmental resources, including minimising waste and pollution, in order to optimise economic and environmental benefits.
-
Promoting awareness and understanding of factors affecting environmental quality and risks to diverse and resilient ecosystems.
TARGET OUTCOME STATEMENT
New Zealand in the global biophysical environment: New Zealand exploits its ability to influence and contribute to international global environmental change programmes. Knowledge gained from these programmes is used to improve our understanding of the effects of global change processes on our ecosystems and the production systems dependent on them.
Examples of the contributions RS&T could make towards this target outcome:
-
Increasing knowledge of global-scale crustal processes and dynamics.
-
Expanding the knowledge base of factors affecting global ecosystem health, including climate variability.
