1 National Action Plan on Climate Change Ministry of Environment & Forests Government of India June 24, 2010 Data indicates that India s emissions growth path has been on sustainable lines; this is validated by objective third-party studies 16% of the World s population but only 4.6% of the global CO2 emissions World Bank Assessment India is a relatively low carbon economy Among 70 countries studied, India ranks 63rd for per capita emissions, 48th for CO2 emissions per unit of GDP Offsetting factor for CO2 emissions is high 30% of GHG growth offset by lowering energy intensity and improving the carbon intensity of its fuel mix; Russia and China show much lower performance Achieved this despite a low initial emission level and against a backdrop of increasing CO2 intensity world wide between Most independent projections indicate that India s CO2 intensity is likely to continue to decline through
2 RECENT POLICY INITIATIVES NATIONAL ACTION PLAN ON CLIMATE CHANGE LOW CARBON STRATEGY FOR GROWTH DOMESTIC MITIGATION AMBITION- REDUCTION OF EMISSIONS INTENSITY OF GDP BY 20-25% wrt 2005 BY 2020 APPROACHES OF NATIONAL ACTION PLAN DOMESTIC Adapt to climate change Enhance ecological sustainability of India s development path Five missions on adaptation 2 missions on mitigation GLOBAL Recognize climate change as global challenge Participate in globally cooperative actions based on CBDR Ensure equity in entitlement to global atmospheric resources
3 STARETGY & CO-BENEFITS STRATEGY Sustainable development. Accelerated deployment of appropriate technologies, Efficient/Cost-effective Demand side Management of Energy, Innovative market, regulatory, and voluntary mechanisms, Effective linkages with civil society and public-private partnerships. CO-BENEFITS Climate change mitigation and Adaptation Additional employment opportunities 5 India s National Action Plan on Climate Change envisages India s efforts being led through 8 Missions, which are in the process of operationalisation Mission Objective Responsible Entity National Solar Mission National Mission for Enhanced Energy Efficiency National Mission for Sustainable Habitat National Water Mission 20,000 MW of solar power by ,000 MW of EE savings by 2020 EE in residential and commercial buildings, public transport, Solid waste management Water conservation, river basin management Ministry of Non Renewable Energy Sources Ministry of Power Ministry of Urban Development Ministry of Water Resources National Mission for Sustaining the Himalayan Ecosystem National Mission for a Green India National Mission for Sustainable Agriculture National Mission on Strategic Knowledge for Climate Change Conservation and adaptation practices, glacial monitoring 6 mn hectares of afforestation over degraded forest lands by the end of 12 th Plan Drought proofing, risk management, agricultural research Vulnerability assessment, Research & observation, data management Ministry of Science & Technology Ministry of Environment & Forests Ministry of Agriculture Ministry of Science & Technology
