THE CHALLENGE OF CLIMATE CHANGE
Climate change is primarily caused by building up of
green house gases (GHG) e.g. Carbon Dioxide,
Methane, Nitrous Oxide etc. in the atmosphere.
Global increases in carbon dioxide concentration are due
to fossil fuel, land use change and human activity
Methane and nitrous oxide due to agriculture activity

Climate change is accompanied by :
High average temperature
Changed rainfall patterns
Increased severity and frequency of floods, droughts and
cyclones
Oceanic acidification
THE CHALLENGE OF CLIMATE CHANGE

CLIMATE CHANGE DUE TO
GHGs Transport Industries Agricultural waste decay By birds, animals High yielding techniques of agriculture Arbitrary use of natural resources Deforestation Reduction in pastures Fertility of land reduction Forests, flora and fauna disappearance

Livelihoods of poor in developing countries
Availability of water
Food production / food security
Flooding of coastal areas
Increased burden of vector borne and water borne diseases
Slows down the pace of development
OVERALL IMPACT ON

INDIA’s VULNERABILITY TO CLIMATE CHANGE Is facing high degree of climate variability
GDP growth is attributable to yearly variations in rainfall.
Himalayan eco-system is now highly vulnerable
Increases in mean sea levels will affect large populations in peninsular and coastal India.
Gangotri Glacier - one of the largest is retreating
Rainfall in India may increase by 15 to 40% and annual mean temperature by 3 to 6 degree.
India may suffer huge losses to livelihoods.
Agriculture sector would be most affected

IMPACT ON AGRICULTURE
Agriculture 4 objectives
1. Resources conservation
2. Ecologic health
3. Economic gains
4. Social and Economic parityAll are affected in varying degrees.
Effect on production and productivity Production would be severely compromised Yields of crops like wheat, rice and pulses will go down Badly affects Horticulture crops Milk production to come down Fish exodus

Affects food security -
Major challenges for food self sufficiency and affects
global food security
Changed precipitation – insect pressure – requires
use of more and different pesticides

INDIA PART OF GLOBAL REGIME
UN Framework on Climate change 1992 to stabilise green house gas concentration
Bali Action Plan 2007 – long term cooperative action
Kyoto Protocol and Copenhagen Conference 2009 – laid down emission reduction targets for industrialised countries
Differences surfaced on several critical issues.
Awaiting settlement in Mexico November – December 2010.

India’s total Co2 emissions are about 4% of global emission. %
USA 19.8
China 17.7
Russia 5.2
India 4.7Japan 4.1
Germany 2.6
Canada 2.1
U.K. 2.0
South Korea 1.6
Mexico 1.5

12
Decoupling of growth of emission from economic development- common but differential responsibilities and respective capabilities.
Not binding on India. Economic, social and poverty reduction priorities. Mitigation in the context of sustainable development and consistant with National priorities.
India’s per capita emission in next 20 years is going to be less than developing countries average.
PM – India will never allow to increase per capita emissions to exceed that of the developing countries
National Action Plan – maintaining a high degree of growth and reducing their vulnerability of the impact of climate change

Besides, outlining 24 initiatives aimed at promoting technologies and actions in the sectors relating to Energy generation Transport Renewable energy Disaster management Capacity building
Mission integration with Ministries and State Action Plans
India prepares periodically the National Communication that gives inventory of green house gasses emissions etc.

CLEAN DEVELOPMENT MECHANISM
Emission reduction
Sustainable development
Purchase of Carbon
Reduction Certificates from developing countries
India CDM potential significant part of the global market.
India has 482 CDM Projects – 23% of the world.
Institutional Mechanism
A Council under Prime Minister
![Page 16: ENVIRONMENT AND CLIMATE CHANGE POLICY OF INDIA By LAKSHMAN DASS AHUJA OFFICER ON SPECIAL DUTY NATIONAL COOPERATIVE UNION OF INDIA (NCUI) NETWORK FOR DEVELOPMENT.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cae5503460f9497191d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Emission of GHGs – Co2 is the major cause of global warming and climate change- human induced activities are spreading this
Carbon footprint is a measure of impact that human activities have on the environment. It is measured in units of Co2
Reduction in emission can be achieved by industries by Using renewable energy and low carbon technology – wind
energy, solar cells and bio-fuels, use of bio-mass Adopting energy efficient technology – use of energy efficient
lamps Greening Efforts – planting of trees, converting waste land into
plantation areas Adopting recycling and use of recycled products – co-processing
waste material, agro waste like rice husk, bagasse etc. Teleconferencing instead of flying Green buildings
CARBON TRADING
Results in sustainable development, cost savings, environment sensitive market, higher profits, reduction in direct risks like floods, drought and supply chain risk etc.

COPING WITH CHANGE Coastal zone Buildings and construction Transport Water supply in arid areas Making India energy efficient Agriculture Bio-diversity management Barren Land use planning Check dams Health Rescue Preparedness Insurance Aspect Need for agriculture productivity increase, animals, fishery
and forests, need for crops which retain the fertility of soil.

INITIATED STEPS IN AGRICULTURE
Ministries of Agriculture and Environment have taken many
steps
Organic farming and green agriculture are environment
friendly. This is being done.
Green agriculture is based on integrated pest and nutrient
management crop livestock integration, use of most
appropriate and productive genetic strains and adoption of
more crop and income per drop of water technologies.
A bio-diversity valley in Orissa is established.

Generation of electricity and bio-manure through Waste
Management
Bio-fertiliser
Compost
Vermiculture
Bio-mass briquettes - Gassifier based grid power
programme - conversion of solid bio-mass (wood,
agriculture residue) into combustible gas

STEPS BY COOPERATIVES
![Page 21: ENVIRONMENT AND CLIMATE CHANGE POLICY OF INDIA By LAKSHMAN DASS AHUJA OFFICER ON SPECIAL DUTY NATIONAL COOPERATIVE UNION OF INDIA (NCUI) NETWORK FOR DEVELOPMENT.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cae5503460f9497191d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
21
Cutting green house gas emission
Carbon neutrality – agriculture and fishery cooperatives – stress on green energy production or innovative feed to reduce emission from livestock production
Consumer cooperatives – carbon footprints - reduction in stores operations, supplies, education to members
Housing –sustainable construction material, eco-buildings
Cooperative banks/ credit - incentives for energy efficient technology
86th ICA DAY – JULY 2008 ON CLIMATE CHANGE
![Page 22: ENVIRONMENT AND CLIMATE CHANGE POLICY OF INDIA By LAKSHMAN DASS AHUJA OFFICER ON SPECIAL DUTY NATIONAL COOPERATIVE UNION OF INDIA (NCUI) NETWORK FOR DEVELOPMENT.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649cae5503460f9497191d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
Insurance cooperatives – down premiums – more risk
coverage
Energy cooperatives – sustainable energy through wind,
solar and bio-fuels
Economic, social and environmental sustainability
Cooperative assume leadership role with UN
Environment Programme
ICA reaffirmed its commitment – sustainable
development and contributing substantially to mitigate
the effects of climate change
