Climate change presents multiple challenges to New Zealand. Some are direct - such as climatic impacts on domestic agricultural production, or domestic climate policies - but further, indirect impacts could come from overseas, via trade, such as climate-induced production shifts, global responses to greenhouse gas mitigation measures, consumer perceptions and reputational issues.

These international flow-on effects are complex and hard to quantify, but they are an important part of the overall picture. Many climate impacts and responses overseas - such as increased demand, higher returns, competitive advantage and smart marketing - could help to offset domestic weather impacts and emissions mitigation costs. This fact sheet summarises what we currently know about these multiple influences, and how they can inform New Zealand&#39;s response to climate change.
