The Ministry for the Environment is a New Zealand government department charged with long-term stewardship of the natural environment. It aims to make New Zealand one of the most liveable places in the world by maintaining healthy land, air, and water, protecting native biodiversity, scenery, and recreational opportunities. Its work requires collaboration with people across forests, farms, factories, cities, and homes to guide decisions and encourage innovation that benefits the environment and communities. Based in Wellington, in the Wellington region, it operates as a mid-sized public-sector organization. A recent development involves the ministry selecting Xpansiv CBL Holding Group to operate NZ ETS auctions, beginning with the September 2026 auction.
