Conference of Parties to United Nations Framework Convention for Climate Change (UNFCCC): 21st Session (COP21) H.N.K.T.Dulani Assistant Director Climate Change Secretariat Ministry of Mahaweli Development and Environment

United Nation Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Adopted at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 The objective of the UNFCCC is the stabilization of greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climatic systems. Sri Lanka has ratified the UNFCCC on 23rd November 1993

Kyoto Protocol (KP) The objective of the protocol is annex 1 parties (Developed Countries) to reduce their collective emissions of greenhouse gases by at least 5.2% of the 1990 level by the period 2008 —2012. Sri Lanka has ratified the Kyoto Protocol in 3rd September 2002. Second Commitment period for KP is from 2013-2020

COP 21 – Paris Agreement Effective from 2020 – signing from 22 April 2016 until 21 April 2017 Applicable to all parties Compliance: 55 countries covering 55% of global GHG emission should sign Main aim: to keep a global temperature rise this century well below 2 °C to drive efforts to limit the temperature increase even further to 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels

COP21: Impact on Sri Lanka Submitted Intended Nationally Determined Contributions(INDCs) Mitigation targets according to INDCs Stocktaking will be done every five years Support – including finance, for nations to build clean, resilient futures (a goal of at least US$100 billion a year in contributions from developed countries )

Way forward Ratification of the agreement and how it could be applied provisionally to take fast actions to address climate change and domestic vulnerabilities Agreement recognizes “right to development” and the need to integrate SDGs to the process. Moving away from fossil-fuel burning and towards renewable energy as much as possible Tapping possible climate finance (Green Climate Fund, Adaptation Fund, Global Environmental Facility, etc.)
