  4. Background • Assignment • Climate Change

  5. Climate change refers to the variation in the Earth's global climate or in regional climates over time.

  6. United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is an international environmental treaty produced at the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) -1992

  7. Problem The problem is that human activity is making the blanket "thicker". The most direct result, says the scientific consensus, is likely to be a "global warming" of 1.5 to 4.5 C over the next 100 years. Apparent temperature increase of 0.5 oC since the pre-industrial period before 1850.

  8. Global warming is an increase in the average temperature of the Earth's near-surface air and oceans.

  9. Impact • Climate • Environment • Economy

  10. Prevention • Technological • Ecological

  11. Legal Framework

  12. Kyoto Protocol The Kyoto Protocol, an international and legally binding agreement to reduce greenhouse gases emissions world wide, entered into force on 16 February 2005.

  13. Kyoto Protocol shares the Convention’s objective, principles and institutions, but significantly strengthens the Convention by committing Annex I Parties to individual, legally-binding targets to limit or reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.

  14. Annex IParties include the industrialized countries that were members of the OECD plus countries with economies in transition. Annex II Parties consist of the OECD members of Annex I. Non-Annex I Parties are mostly developing countries.

  15. Annex A • Greenhouse gases • - Carbon dioxide (CO2) • Methane (CH4) • Nitrous oxide (N2O) • Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) • Perfluorocarbons (PFCs) • Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) • Sectors/source categories

  16. Annex B to the Kyoto Protocol

  17. The UNFCCC Secretariat supports all institutions involved in the climate change process, particularly the COP, the subsidiary bodies and their Bureau.  Since August 1996, the secretariat has been located in Bonn, Germany.

  18. The Conference of the Parties (COP) is the "supreme body" of the Convention; it is the highest decision-making authority.  It is an association of all the countries that are Parties to the Convention.  The COP meets every year, unless the Parties decide otherwise.

  19. The Convention established two permanent subsidiary bodies: the Subsidiary Body for Scientific and Technological Advice (SBSTA) and the Subsidiary Body for Implementation (SBI). These bodies give advice to the COP and each has a specific mandate. The SBSTA and the SBI traditionally meet in parallel, at least twice a year.

  23. subject to the authority and guidance of COP. • supervised by an executive board of the CDM. • Emission reductions resulting from each project activity shall be certified by operational entities • assist in arranging funding of certified project activities. • A share of proceeds to cover administrative expenses and assist cost of adaptation. • Certified emission reductions since the year 2000 up to the beginning of the first commitment period can be used to assist in compliance.
