  1. The 2nd Asia Forum on Carbon Update 2012 CLIMATE CHANGE AND RESPONSE IN VIETNAM: Update on Policy, Strategy and Program Trương Quang Học VACNE, CRES - Vietnam Natonal University, Hanoi

  2. OUTLINES 1. overview of climate change in Vietnam 2. International CC conventions participation 3. National activities in response to CC - Achievements - Challengies and recommendations

  3. CC impacts • Viet Nam is one of the most vulnerable countries to the global climate change

  4. temperature over the past 50 years annual average temperature has increased about 0.7oC. (IMHEN 2008)

  5. Sea level rise Over the past 50 years, sea level rose about 20 cm (IMHEN, 2009)

  6. Intensity and abnormality of natural disasters (floods, storms surges, sea level rise, extreme events, drought) increased

  7. Changes in Annual Mean Temperature (oC) Relative to 1980-1999, Medium Scenario (B2)

  8. Sea level rise scenarios

  9. Red river delta Sea level rise Dark blue: 1m Light blue : 5 m (John Pilgrim, 2007) Mekong delta (John Pilgrim, 2007)

  10. With SLR of 1 meter • Total lost value: 17 billion USD/year; - 1/5 population houses lost/damaged; - 12,3% plantation area inundated; - 40.000km2 delta area, 17.000 km2 of coastal area in Mekong river delta are heavely impacted by unpredicable floods. • With SLR of 1m: GDP lost of 10%; - With 3 m: GDP lost of 25 % (WB).

  11. VIETNAMactively responds to climate change & develops a low carbon society CLIMATE CHANGE RESPONSE

  12. INTERNATIONAL ACTIVITIES • UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and Kyoto Protocol were ratified by the Government of Vietnam on Nov. 16th 1994 (1992) and in September 2002 (1998), respectively. • Since February 1995, Vietnam officially was • a Non-Annex I Party of the Convention.
