And it's an aging plant, that Carpuni.

And so, and it went down.

It went down in December 22, I think it was.

It was the summer from hell.

Not only did it rain all summer, we ran out of, the country ran out of CO2, as you probably know.

And so that affected not just the Burmese tree,

significantly but you know people like cherries and poultry farmers like it's the country needs CO2 and so as an industry we um we produce CO2 but not many people reuse it we could George as soon as soon as I got the email from our gas supplier to say your price is going to go up 500 in 24 hours

we were like, holy moly, we need to get a CO2 recovery system in.

And we did.

It arrived in July, and I now know it's reduced our CO2 usage by 56%, and we've saved 60 tonnes of CO2 going into the environment in the last two and a half years.

But we're one of the few that have that.

There's a few other breweries.

So that doesn't mean that we're self-sufficient, because the process of actually canning beer is quite CO2-hungry.

So, we are all nervous about our CO2.

There is talk about, I think, Contact Energy looking at doing a CO2 supply out of somewhere near Taupo, which is around geothermal.

But obviously, all at the moment, a lot of it's coming in from Malaysia, I believe.

Yes.

Yes, we do.

So we take all of our CO2, we purify it, we condense it back and then chill it back into a liquid and then use it for our canning.

Well, the problem was...
