THE
RIGHT
GOALS
6/17
• Based
on
science
• Prevent
dangerous
future
limiting
global
temperature
increase
“well
below”
2°C,
with
an
eye
toward
1.5
°C
• Peaking
as
soon
as
possible
• Regular
reviews
of
science
informing
process;
e.g.
IPCC
to
deliver
report
by
2018
scenarios
for
how
to
reach
1.5 °C
• Targeting
economic,
social,
environmental
sustainability
• Equitable
access
to
sustainable
development,
eradication
of
poverty,
• Empowerment
of
women,
intergenerational
equity
• Conservation
of
ecosystems
&
biodiversity
7. ALL
ABOARD
7/17

196
parties
present
at
the
Conference
• Common
but
differentiated
responsibilities
and
respective
capabilities
• Wealthy
nations
to
take
lead
• Developing/emerging
countries
to
decarbonize
economic
growth
• Support
for
least
developed
countries
• Legally
binding
and
non-‐mandatory
components
8. ALL
IN
THE
BOX
8/17
• Mitigation
–
reduces
emissions
fast
enough
to
achieve
temperature
goal
• Adaptation
–
strengthens
ability
of
countries
to
deal
with
climate
impacts
• Loss
and
damage
–
strengthens
ability
to
recover
from
cc
impacts
• Support
–
includes
financial
&
technical
assistance
to
build
clean,
resilient
futures
• Transparency
&
accountability

10. INDCS
|
WHAT
THEY
ARE
• Climate
change
actions
a
national
government
intends
to
undertake
to
deal
with
climate
change
• Collected
and
submitted
to
the
UNFCCC
prior
to
COP21
in
a
manner
that
“facilitates
the
clarity,
transparency,
and
understanding
of
the
intended
contributions”
(COP20)
• Allow
tracking
of
collective
progress
towards
2C
goal
• Future
plans
must
not
be
less
ambitious
• Next
round
due
9-‐12
month
prior
to
2020
COP
(contributions
for
timeframe
to
2030)

11. INDCS

WHAT
‘S
IN
THEM
• Tremendous
variety
allowed
in
INDCs
• Types
include:
absolute
economy-‐wide
emissions
target,
deviation
from
a
BAU
scenario,
intensity
target,
or
a
set
of
general
policies
and
actions.
VARIED
GOAL
METRICS
• Chile:
Unconditional
INDC
target
of
30%
reduction
of
GHG
emissions-‐intensity
per
unit
GDP
below
2007
levels
by
2030.
• Bhutan:
Aims
to
maintain
GHG
emissions
below
its
total
carbon
sink
from
land
use,
land
use
change,
and
forestry
• Turkey:
Economy-‐wide
target
to
reduce
emissions
by
21%
below
BAU
in
2030
11/17
12. INDCS
|
WHERE
THEY
GET
US
• Submitted
pledges
account
for
94%
of
global
emissions
• If
all
158
pledging
states
meet
their
target:
2.7C
temperature
increase
by
2100
(Climate
Action
Tracker)
• 0.9C
lower
than
what
was
projected
from
policies
pre-‐
INDCs
• More
ambitious
action
needed
• Gap
from
target
can
be
reduced
by
increased
effort
from
countries
with
“conditional
targets”
• Co-‐benefits
can
offset
costs
of
stronger
action
