CAN intervention at NAMA workshop COP19
Summary
The Climate Action Network (CAN) emphasizes the urgency of reducing emissions due to a shrinking global carbon budget, calling for developed countries to lead in finance and mitigation. CAN highlights that 66 developing countries—representing a fifth of global CO2 emissions—either lack pledges or have NAMAs that are not specific enough for quantification, and urges all developing nations to adopt common rules for baselines and monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV).
Key insights
- The Climate Action Network asserts that developed countries must take the lead by significantly increasing their financial and mitigation commitments, while developing countries must also contribute to global mitigation due to severe carbon budget constraints.
- A significant portion of global emissions is not covered by specific targets: 34 countries have no pledges or NAMAs, and 32 countries have NAMAs that lack the specificity required to quantify GHG impacts or implementation, collectively accounting for one-fifth of global CO2 emissions.
- CAN calls for developing countries to establish common rules for business-as-usual baselines and monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV), and to specify how financial and technological support could increase their mitigation efforts.
