Why mainstreaming climate change into the NUP? Geographic Distribution of Risk GHG emissions by Sector (2014) The total estimated direct GHG emissions for this year were 236,973 Gigagrams of CO2. Estimated CO2 removals were -22,659 Gigagrams CO2eq, mostly by forest lands. Consequently, net emissions (net balance) for 2014 were 214,315 Gg of CO2eq Source: Third Communication UNFCCC 2014 Source: Third Communication UNFCCC 2014 • Climate Change represents high economic, social and cultural impacts for the country • Colombia is highly vulnerable to climate change, through El Niño, La niña and other phenomena • Forestry (36%), Agriculture (26%), Residential and Transport (14%), are the sectors that emit higher concentrations of GHG. Residential sector- one of the most affected • Impacts on human health, regional competitiveness…
Why mainstreaming climate change into the NUP? LIMITING GLOBAL WARMING TO 1.5 TO 2.0C WILL REQUIRE FAR REACHING TRANSITIONS IN CITIES IN THE According to its recent COMING TWO DECADES NDC submission, Colombia will produce a maximum of 169.44 million tons CO2 eq in 2030 (equivalent to a 51% reduction in emissions) 2027 – 2030 Carbon Neutrality Source: BUR, IDEAM 2015
