This chapter is included in the book Environmental Law in New Zealand, edited by Peter Salmon and David Grinlinton. The author considers the regulation of localised air pollution in New Zealand by the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA). The chapter places particular emphasis upon the role of the RMA in controlling the emission of ozone-depleting and greenhouse gases, and the effectiveness of the RMA in this context.
