Bangladesh has always been highly susceptible to climate change and
climate induced disasters due to its unique geographical setting
and as such, among the two basic approaches to tackling climate
change i.e. adaptation and mitigation, the focus for Bangladesh
primarily lies in adaptation. However, despite being a highly
climate vulnerable country, whilst contributing less than 0.35% of
global emissions, Bangladesh wants to actively play its part in the
global collective action to reduce future GHG emissions.
The interim NDC aims to further strengthen mitigation actions that
Bangladesh may take to tackle its growing emissions and to play its
role in global efforts to limit temperature rise to 2 degrees or
preferably 1.5 degrees celsius above pre-industrial levels. With
respect to Bangladesh’s contribution to global efforts to counter
climate change, the NDC calls for a number of mitigation actions
that will help limit the country’s GHG emissions. These mitigation
actions will play a key role in realizing the move to a low-carbon,
climate-resilient economy and to becoming a middle-income country
whilst ensuring that it will not cross the average per capita
emissions of the developing countries.
BACKGROUND

As an active member of UNFCCC, Bangladesh prepared and submitted
its (I)NDC in 2015.
BACKGROUND
This document presents an interim NDC update which will be further
updated following the UNFCCC guidelines under the Paris Agreement.
Bangladesh submitted its Intended Nationally Determined
Contribution (INDC) to UNFCCC on 25 September 2015 with an
ambitious GHG reduction target of 15% from a Business as Usual
(BAU) level by 2030. Of this 5% reduction was targeted as
unconditional and 10% was as conditional, i.e. contingent upon
technical and financial support from the global community.

NDC review and update is a country driven and interactive
approach.
Both primary and secondary data. However, the main source of data
is secondary comes from government publication, Bangladesh Bureau
of Statistics (BBS);
Secondary data to find the GHG emission potentials from various
sectors. MRV system and framework development for monitoring GHG
emission;
Key Informant Interview (KII) - to understand the challenges of the
non-inclusion of other sectors in the NDC. Sector wise
questionnaire/template development for collecting data; Undertake
review of key documents and make use of relevant guidelines on the
establishment of National GHG
inventory system; Consult primary sectors such as Energy,
Transport, Agriculture, Industry, Waste and Forestry as well as
other
relevant stakeholders; Collect and analyze GHG Activity data,
reporting the result; Facilitate stakeholders’ workshop/meeting for
training to establish National GHG inventory and MRV system
and solicit inputs through the workshops.

Submitted NDC vs NDC Update THE TOTAL EMISSION FROM AGRICULTURE
SECTOR WAS 45.88 MTCO2E, WHICH IS 30.19% OF TOTAL GHG EMISSION IN
COUNTRY. WASTE SECTOR WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR 23.78 MTCO2E OR 15.63% OF
TOTAL GHG EMISSION IN BANGLADESH. SO, IF WE INCLUDE THIS TWO
SECTORS IN OUR UPDATED NDC IT WILL COVER ADDITIONAL 45.92% OF OUR
NATIONAL EMISSION. SO, COMBINED EMISSION COVERAGE UNDER THE UPDATED
NDC WILL BE FROM THE PRESENT 48.14% TO (48.14+45.82) 93.96% OF OUR
NATIONAL EMISSION.

Potential for further emission reduction • Households
• energy efficient appliances can ensure 10% improvement, •
improved gas cookstove can safeguard 11.5% and • improved biomass
cookstoves can contribute 16.7% improvement.
• Moreover, in the overall commercial building sector, energy
efficiency improvement of 25% is achievable in the country.
• Carefully designed mitigation measures in agriculture sector,
like - • alternate wetting and drying (AWD) irrigation can achieve
15% improvement • increased mechanization for draft cattle and
improved use of organic manures can achieve 40% improvement.
• Organic composting and energy recovery can lead to 30-50%
improvement in waste sector.
• Although GHG emission from LULUCF sector is not significant, this
sector has great potentiality as carbon sink.
ENHANCED NDC 2020

the People’s Republic of Bangladesh
Issues for Consideration
• Review the already included three sectors (Power, industry and
transport) for further increasing their ambitions;
• Inclusion of agriculture and wastes as additional two sectors in
the updated NDC, as they contribute 30.19% and 15.63% of the total
national emission respectively.
• Set specific, measurable and time-bound targets for GHG emission
reductions from potential sectors in the updated NDC;
• Updated NDC should contain costing of mitigation activities,
their probable financial sources for achieving the set
targets.
Bangladesh NDC should include a brief Adaptation Chapter
ENHANCED NDC 2020
Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change Government of
the People’s Republic of Bangladesh
Issues for Consideration A RAPIDLY GROWING COUNTRY LIKE BANGLADESH
NEEDS A HUGE AMOUNT OF ENERGY TO ACHIEVE ITS DEVELOPMENT GOALS. SO,
IT WILL BE WORTHWHILE NOT TO RELY SOLELY ON ENERGY (POWER,
TRANSPORT AND INDUSTRY) SECTOR FOR MITIGATION EFFORTS RATHER TO
LOOK FOR OTHER NON-ENERGY SECTORS FOR ENHANCED MITIGATION ACTIONS
TO COMPREHEND THE TARGETS SET OUT IN THE PARIS AGREEMENT.
AS AN LDC BANGLADESH DOESN’T HAVE ANY OBLIGATION TO SUBMIT
NDCS
SO OUR AMBITION SHOULD BE CONSERVATIVE, YET PROGRESSIVE.

Action plan for the improvement of the GHG inventories: • we have
no action plan for the improvement of the GHG inventories yet, but
we assigned 6 officials
in DoE for the Initialization of the GHG inventories in DoE during
the TNC preparation • We shall consider preparing the action plan
for the improvement of the GHG inventories under the
BUR1 Project if possible
Sustainable development goal refer to changes in environmental,
social, and/or economic conditions as a result of mitigation
actions. i.e. changes in household income resulting from sales of
non-timber forest products (e.g., mushrooms, honey, edible
nuts).

International Cooperation improving the quality of NDCs Bangladesh
may require for following supports to overcome the barriers - •
Require expedited financial support for NDC implementation; •
Technical cooperation for strengthening Institutional Arrangement
and enhanced MRV system; • Sharing of experiences from developed
nations. Share experiences and lessons learnt and the best
practices • DoE under MoEFCC is in the process of implementation of
two projects (CBIT and BUR-1) • Technical knowledge, and capacity
building, and evaluating the results and impact of support. • An
example of this kind of MRV would be developing countries tracking
climate-specific finance received through bilateral or
multi-lateral
channels. We expect to fulfill the commitment from the developed
countries to contribute 100 billion US Dollar per year for
adaptation and mitigation from 2020 onwards.
• Countries tracking and reporting mitigation-related support
received from donor countries in the form of various financial
instruments such as grants, etc.
• Promote cooperation between parties • Identify areas of
improvement and capacity building needs • Endow credibility and
legitimacy to domestic actions and empower stakeholders •
Strengthen capacity for domestic policy • Advance implementation
and promote effectiveness
