1 Paris Agreement summary (I)NDC Working Group Meeting 26 October 2016, Baku Marzena Chodor, Clima East Key Expert

2 Acknowledgments A numer of slides developed by the UNFCCC Secretariat and Adaptation Programme for the LEG and AC meetings have been used with original formatting and templates.

3 Key goals of the Paris Agreement Temperature must never rise above the limit of well below 2 deg, and striving not to exceed 1,5 Adaptation and resilience building became equally important components of climate action, recognised as enabler for future climate neutral development Climate finance bn USD annually by 2020 with developed countries taking a lead SDGs context

4 Global ambition Global temperature goal - holding the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2 C/1.5 C above pre-industrial levels (PA, Art. 2.1) Global peaking of GHG emissions, rapid reductions thereafter (PA, Art.4.1) A balance between anthropogenic emissions by sources and removals by sinks of greenhouse gases in the second half of this century (PA, Art.4.1) Stocktake every 5 years

5 Main components of the Agreement Global goals / efforts Global limit of temperature well below 2 (Art. 2) Long-term goal on mitigation (Art. 4.1) Global goal on adaptation (Art. 7.1) Mobilizing climate finance (Art. 9.3) Context of sustainable development Individual efforts Mitigation Adaptation Cooperation Capacitybuilding Policy coordination Mobilization of support Response measures Etc. Transparency framework To enhance transparency of action & support, implementation and compliance. Existing tools (BUR/BR, NCs, inventories etc.) will continue to play a very important role Registry (registries?) of NDC Global stocktake To assess progress against the purpose of the Paris Agreement and its longterm goals First global stock-take to take place in 2023, and every 5 years thereafter

6 Key elements in PA Nationally driven policies and actions, in line with identified circumstances and needs ( Adaptation communications NDCs, National Communications, NAPs. Recognition of the impacts of response measures. Intrinsic linkage to the sustainable development, access to which has been named a right. LDCs needs have been clearly identified. Just transition (of workforce, jobs, etc.) social aspects Climate action need to address human rights and social / societal aspects of development. Role of ecosystems as carbon reservoirs, contributing to carbon neutrality. Important role for the non-state actors and observers.

7 Some existing institutions/mechanisms REDD+ framework result based payments. ICA/IAR International Consultation and Analysis / International Assessment & Review. Loss & Damage currently under the review meant to help in alleviating risks (risk retention, risk transfer, ) of extreme weather and slow onset events. NWP for Impacts and Vulnerabilities. Action for Climate Empowerment (better known as Article 6 work programme on education, awarness raising. UNDP UNEP

9 Cooperation in PA Article 6 1. Cooperative approaches (6.1) - the general concept that Parties may choose, voluntarily, to cooperate in the implementation of their NDCs. 2. Transfers of mitigation outcomes (6.2 & 6.3) - the concept that Parties, when involved in the specific case of cooperative approaches, which involve mitigation outcomes being transferred internationally ITMOs, need to observe CMA guidance on accounting. It is about international transfers of mitigation outcomes (ITMOs) which can be produced from any multilateral, bilateral, global, regional mechanism / procedure / protocol. 3. Mechanism to contribute to mitigation and support sustainable development (6.4 to 6.7) - the establishment of a mechanism to produce mitigation outcomes and support sustainable development, and which operates under the authority of the COP (some call it CDM+). 4. Framework for non-market approaches ( ). The framework for NMAs will aim to achieve the three issues that are outlined in Article 6.8

10 Adaptation Adopted Global Adaptation Goal (Art. 7.1 of PA) Strengthened cooperation, improved effectiveness and durability Formal recognition of developing country efforts Countries to periodically communicate adaptation plans Adaptation coming to prominence pre-2020

11 Adaptation under the Agreement (Article 7) Global goal on adaptation Enhancing adaptive capacity Strengthening resilience Reducing vulnerability to climate change Sustainable development Global average temperature to well below 2 C Recognition of adaptation efforts of developing country Parties To also be considered under the global stock-take Adaptation communications To include Priorities Implementation and support needs Plans and actions Global stocktake To recognize adaptation efforts Enhance implementation of adaptation Review adequacy and effectiveness of adaptation and support Review progress in achieving the global goal on adaptation Link to disaster risk reduction Parties recognize that pursuing efforts towards 1.5 C would significantly reduce the risks and impacts of climate change

12 Means of Implementation Finance 100 bn US$ pledge Capacity Building Paris Committee for CB Durban Forum on Capacity Building Technology Transfer North South & South South cooperation TEC Technology Executive Committee TNA (Technical Needs Assessment), technology for adaptation, mitigation, role in the TEP (Technical Examination Process Mitigation)

13 New timeline will be agreed at COP22 4 Nov 2016 Entry into force CMA1 in Marrakech

14 What will happen in Marrakech The first meeting of the CMA A number of reviews 1/CP.21 we need a renewed road map for PA implementation Gender decision from Doha; Warsaw International Mechanism Loss & Damage. Continuation of so far established work - programmes. Mandated events and meetings which do not belong to negotiations but to convention s implementation ICA/IAR related meetings WS2 process TEP/TEM Not much of revolution lots of implementation instead
