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
• Global contribution less than 0.35% of global emissions
• Global Responsibility to actively play its part in the global collective action to reduce future GHG emissions

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.

ENHANCED NDC 2020
Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC) Government of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh
Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change Government of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh
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
Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change Government of 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.

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
