CARBON CREDITS• A permit which allows a country or
organization to produce a certain amount of carbon emissions and which can be traded if the full allowance is not used.

IMPORTANCE OF CARBON CREDIT• One challenge facing the human race is
that of GLOBAL WARMING.• Carbon credits are a part of international
attempts to mitigate the growth in concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs).
• The goal is to drive industrial processes in the direction of low emissions approaches than those used when there is no cost to emitting carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

WHAT IS INDC• Countries across the globe
committed to create a new international climate agreement by the conclusion of the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Conference of the Parties (COP21) in Paris in December 2015.

• 196 Countries publicly outline post-2020 climate actions they intend to take under international agreement, i.e. Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs).
• INDCs will determine whether world achieves an ambitious 2015 agreement and is put on path toward low-carbon, climate-resilient future.

“By next year’s Climate Week NYC we can all look back with pride on what this extraordinary year has set in motion” John A. Kufuor, former President of Ghana and Special Envoy on Climate Change

How does the process work?
• The process for INDCs pairs national policy-setting with a global framework that drives collective action toward a low-carbon, climate-resilient future.
• The INDCs will create a constructive feedback loop between national and international decision-making on climate change.

• INDCs will reflect each country’s ambition for reducing emissions, taking into account its domestic circumstances and capabilities.
• Some countries may also address how they’ll adapt to climate change impacts, and what support they need from, or will provide to, other countries to adopt low-carbon pathways and to build climate resilience.

When will we see them?• All INDCs submitted to the
Secretariat by October 1st will be included in a synthesis report by the UNFCCC Secretariat that will be released by November 1st. The report will reflect the aggregate emissions impact of available INDCs ahead of COP21.

What makes a good INDC?
A good INDC • Ambitious • Transparent• Equitable• Clearly Communicated
![Page 16: Carbon credits, indc and india](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022051404/589ec0c61a28ab4a5c8b6bdf/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
INDC INCLUDES• A reference point (for instance, the base
year from which emissions will be reduced)• Time frame• Scope and coverage• Methodological approach towards
calculating emissions• How the contribution is fair and ambitious• How it contributes towards achieving the
objective of the UN's climate convention

INDIA’S INDC• Submitted on Oct 2nd, India’s INDC, 38 paged
document is balanced and comprehensive. • India is keen to work towards a low carbon
emission pathway, while endeavouring to meet all the developmental challenges that the country faces today.
• India has decided to anchor a global solar alliance, INSPA of all countries located in between Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn.
