Climate Change
• Warming of climate system is unequivocal – Last 3 decades has been successively warmer (since 1850). – Observed warming 1951−2010 is 0.6°C- 0.7°C.
• Human influence on climate system is clear– CO2 concentrations increased 40% since pre-industrial
• Limiting climate change will require substantial & sustained reductions of GHG emissions

Threats
• Human development tipping points
– Reduced agricultural productivity– Heightened water insecurity– Stressed ecosystems (forests & biodiversity)– Increased health risks• Increased exposure to extreme weather events
– Low human development traps • Climate related risks force people into downward spirals of
disadvantage that undermine future opportunities

At the national level ….

National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC)
• Inclusive & sustainable development strategy sensitive to climate change– Directional shift in the development pathway• Enhancing current and planned programmes• Appropriate institutional mechanisms• Building effective linkages with civil society, local govt.
institutions & public-private partnerships
• Effective and sustained implementation – Involvement at all level of decision making and actions
![Page 6: State action plans on climate change_Preeti Soni, UNDP_15 October 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081518/548d7ec2b4795956138b47a2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The need for SAPCC
Translating national policy into action esp. at local levels
Decentralizing NAPCC objectives into local context
In line with NAPCC, SAPCC can help state/ U.T. to address climate change issues
A common framework for SAPCC would harmonize national & state level actions
![Page 7: State action plans on climate change_Preeti Soni, UNDP_15 October 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081518/548d7ec2b4795956138b47a2/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
At the state level …
![Page 8: State action plans on climate change_Preeti Soni, UNDP_15 October 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081518/548d7ec2b4795956138b47a2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
SAPCC – Principles• Understand climate data & its limitations • Assess climate change interaction with existing vulnerabilities• Go beyond risk management• Consider both top-down & bottom-up approaches• Build broader stakeholder engagement : Reach out to a large
number of sectors and actors• Address state priorities while creating enabling environment
for implementation of NAPCC• Set effective institutional mechanism for implementation
(monitor, review & refine)
![Page 9: State action plans on climate change_Preeti Soni, UNDP_15 October 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081518/548d7ec2b4795956138b47a2/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Logical Framework
Partnership & coordination mechanism• Identify key
players• Set up a
coordination and collaboration structure
Climate profiles• State profile• GHG emissions
inventories & scenarios
• Assessments of vulnerabilities (sectors, groups)
Climate Change strategies• Regional &
sectoral analysis
• Identification & assessment of options (mitigation & adaptation)
• List of prioritized options (time horizon, resources)
Financial & policy requirements
• Assessment of cost implications
• Identify, sequence & combine policy & financial options
Climate Change Action Plan• List of
measures with time frame & allocation
• Climate change policy and investment roadmap
• M&E system• Integrating in
state policy

Methodology• Focus is both on process & product• Coordination and consultative meetings:
• Policy makers, regulators and PRIs• Line agencies of government at state, sectoral and district level
• Workshops: districts/agro-climatic zones levels• Industrial and other productive sectors• Civil society• Marginalized and user communities directly dependent on natural
resources (farmers, pastoralists, fisher folk, forest dwellers)
• Inputs from experts and organizations• scientists, academicians, activists, cultural leaders.

SAPCC- Possible Sources of Funding
• Possible sources of funding for implementation of SAPCCs
o Line Ministries
o State Budget
o MoEF&CC
o Carbon markets, international mechanisms and
Multilaterals and Bi-laterals

![Page 19: State action plans on climate change_Preeti Soni, UNDP_15 October 2014](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081518/548d7ec2b4795956138b47a2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Way Forward
• Institutional mechanism for implementation and monitoring
• De-bundling and analyzing the strategies for “additionality”
• Exploring financial and technological options• Preparation of project for funding from various
sources• State implementation of climate change
activities
