Turkey; With the awareness that climate change is a multifaceted and complex problem that may lead to very serious environmental and socio-economic consequences and even threaten the security of countries, and that the effects of these have become one of the most important tests that threaten the lives of future generations, It is aware of the importance of international cooperation within the scope of reducing gas emissions and combating climate change. In this framework, Turkey has prepared the &quot;National Climate Change Strategy&quot; in order to contribute to the global efforts to reduce the effects of climate change within the framework of its own special conditions and possibilities. or the medium-term objectives envisaged to begin, and the long-term objectives spanning 10 years. and Turkey, as one of the basic principles of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, aims to contribute to the efforts to combat global climate change within the framework of &quot;common but differentiated responsibilities, as much as possible; sets out national mitigation, adaptation, technology, financing and capacity building policies. With the decision numbered 26/CP.7 of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, taken at the 7th Conference of the Parties held in Marrakech in 2001, the name of Turkey was deleted from Annex II and the Parties declared Turkey Turkey was invited to recognize its special condition, which puts it in a different position from other Annex-I countries. Following this decision, Turkey became a party to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change on May 24, 2004. In Turkey, before becoming a party to the UNFCCC, institutional structuring was carried out in 2001 and with the Prime Ministry Circular No. 2001/2; The Climate Change Coordination Board (IDKK) was established in order to determine the policies to be followed, the measures to be taken and the works to be carried out in the field of climate change. With Turkey&#39;s accession to the UNFCCC in 2004, the IDKK was restructured and expanded in 2010 with the participation of new members. This board is chaired by the Ministry of Environment and Urbanization; Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Forestry and Water Affairs, Ministry of Health, Ministry of Transport, Maritime Affairs and Communication, Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Livestock, Ministry of Science, Industry and Technology, Ministry of Energy and Natural Re
Under the UNFCCC, the EU and its Member States committed to achieving a joint quantified economy-wide greenhouse gas emissions reduction target of 20 per cent below the 1990 level by 2020 ("the Cancun pledge"). It is therefore a joint pledge with no separate targets for Member States under the Convention. As stated in the 2022 EU GHG inventory submission to the UNFCCC, the total GHG emissions, excluding LULUCF and including international aviation, decreased by 34% in the EU-27 + UK compared to the base year 1990 or 1.94 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent. The EU has substantially overachieved its 20 per cent by 2020 reduction target under the Convention, which means that also its Member States and the United Kingdom have fulfilled their emission reduction obligations.
APPROACH 14. ACCELERATING THE DEPLOYMENT OF RENEWABLE ENERGIES France has adopted an ambitious renewable energy development trajectory, with an objective of 32% by 2030. To achieve this objective, we must simplify even further the renewable energy development framework. Measures will be taken within the government bill on the transformation of the relationship between the administration and the public, in the domains of energy from the sea, geothermal energy, and anaerobic digestion. Tests will be carried out to make it possible to reduce the average development time for these projects. In the context of the Conference of the Parliaments on overseas territories, the Government will publish a list of the invitations to tender launched within the coming years to develop renewable energies in these territories. In metropolitan France, the scheduling of these invitations to tender throughout the five-year term will be presented within one year, as part of the revision of the multi- annual energy programme.

Minister of State for Development, fcdo.correspondence@fcdo.gov.uk Chair, Public Accounts Committee The Rt Hon Emily Thornberry MP Chair, Foreign Affairs Committee Chair, International Development Committee Dear Sir Geoffrey, Emily and Sarah I am writing to notify you of a new UK guarantee of $280m (£ 210m) that the Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) is proposing to make to the Asian Development Bank’s (ADB ’s) Innovative Financ e Facility for Climate in Asia and the IFCAP is a mechanism developed by the ADB that aims to unlock up to $11bn of new climate finance for developing countries in the Asia-Pacific region. The additional climate finance unlocked by IFCAP will help to mitigate carbon emissions in some of the highest- polluting countries globally, and support resilience to natural disasters in the most climate- Through IFCAP, the UK and other development partners (including the US, Japan, Korea, Sweden and Denmark) will contribute a combination of guarantees and grants to the ADB (the UK will only provide guarantee support), which will unlock new climate lending from For the UK guarantee, the maximum total payout over its lifetime would be $ 280m (£210m), and the annual estimated payout for IFCAP is £6m per year over the 25-year

UK guarantees enable the Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs) to increase lending beyond the amount their credit policies would ordinarily allow. By protecting the ADB against the risk of non-payment on some of its loans, the UK guarantee enables the Bank to take more risk and make more investments. One of the recommendations of the G20 Independent Review of Capital Adequacy Frameworks is to make greater use of guarantees to expand MDB lending. IFCAP adds to FCDO’s growing portfolio of MDB guarantees. Since COP26, the UK has announced guarantees that will unlock more than $6bn of additional MDB finance for African, Asian and Pacific countries. This has positioned the UK as a leader in using guarantees to unlock MDB finance. This leadership has had a demonstration effect, with other guarantors, including Japan and the US, now committing MDB guarantees for the UK contingent guarantees have no upfront cost (except administration costs). ODA budget is only required if there is a default on a guaranteed loan and the UK is required to pay out. The chance of a default on a MDB loan is significantly reduced by the MDB’s The previous Government approved the Business Case for this guarantee and the UK guarantee was announced at the UN Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Summit in New York in September 2023. I have given my approval for this guarantee to go ahead, subject to parliamentary processes being completed. HM Treasury has also approved the Please raise any questions or objections by 7 November. Final approval to proceed with incurring the liability will be withheld pending an examination of any objections. Minister of State for Development, FCDO
It is also important to ensure a connection between research, development and innovation and the production system, enabling the development of real-world prototypes and pilot projects and, in a second phase, accelerating the transfer of this knowledge to the production system and/or the households, to ensure that the decisions taken at any given time are those best suited to the goal of decarbonisation, but also those that lead to the best results in terms of job creation and value for society. The Research and Innovation thematic agendas of the Science and Technology Foundation, I.P. for Climate Change, circular economy, sustainable energy systems, urban Science and Industry and cities of the future are precursors of the mobilisation needed to ensure the transition to a carbon neutral society.

This Act contains measures relating to planning and compulsory purchase of land for housing and planning purposes following the reforms introduced by the Housing and Planning Act 2016. It amends the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. The Act strengthens neighbourhood planning by - ensuring that planning decision-makers take account of neighbourhood development plans; requiring parish councils and designated neighbourhood forums to be automatically notified of future planning applications in their area; and, by giving neighbourhood development plans full legal effect at an earlier stage. It introduces new procedures for modifying neighbourhood development orders and plans and facilitates the modification of neighbourhood areas where a neighbourhood development order or plan has already been made in relation to that area. The Act also makes the duty on local planning authorities to support neighbourhood planning groups and the neighbourhood planning examination process more transparent and grants power to the Secretary of State to make regulations which prescribe the circumstances where certain conditions may or may not be imposed and descriptions of such conditions for the purpose of ensuring that conditions meet national policy tests in the National Planning Policy Framework.

contribute to the
objective of the
Convention as set
forth in its Article 2
Uzbekistan's economic growth is to be ensured on the basis of "green" and
low-carbon development, which will contribute to the global goal of the
Convention and the Paris Agreement in accordance with the country's
capacity and national circumstances. The updated and strengthened Nationally Determined Contribution of the
Republic of Uzbekistan represents progress over previously reported
Nationally Determined Contribution, as trends in containing the growth rate
of specific GHG emissions increase from 10% in 2010 to 35% by 2030. The Republic of Uzbekistan will continue strengthening its efforts to
mitigate climate change, and over time, will move toward economy-wide
absolute emission reduction or limitation targets based on national
circumstances. The Republic of Uzbekistan undertakes to reduce specific greenhouse gas
emissions per unit of GDP by 35 % from the level of 2010 by 2030, in
accordance with national circumstances and capacity, thereby contributing to
stabilizing the global concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere at
a level that prevents dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate
system.
In 2011, the European Commission launched three roadmaps to promote the discussion on the long-term framework of climate and energy policies in Europe: a) the 'Roadmap for Moving to a Competitive Low Carbon Economy in 2050 b) the 'Roadmap to a Single European Transport Area - Towards a Competitive and Resource Efficient Transport System and c) the 'Energy Roadmap 2050. The European Council reconfirmed in February 2011 that the objective of the European Union (EU) is to reduce Europe's greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) by 80 to 95% below 1990 levels by 2050 as part of efforts by developed countries as a group to reduce their emissions by a similar degree. Although the EU is already committed to GHG emission reductions of at least 20 % below 1990 levels by 2020 as part of the Energy and Climate Package, longer-term policies are now required to ensure that the ambitious reduction target for 2050 is achieved. The European Commission has therefore published the communication entitled 'Roadmap for moving to a competitive low-carbon economy in 2050', providing guidance on how the EU can decarbonise its economy.
The main policies and measures that strongly affected reduction of GHG emissions for the energy sector are the deployment of RES, energy efficiency measures and penetration of new technologies, peculiarly in Transport sector. Both the supply and demand sides are facing significant changes, part of the changes results from policy measures, part from technological development and development of the energy and fuel markets. As many of the changes involve or concern investments like power plants and heat boiler houses, the effects are robust and long lasting. In the WEM projection, the most significant future changes in electricity and heat production result from the start-up in the last three years both biomass CHP plants (with the total electric capacity of 25 MW) and biomass heat boiler plants and biomass heat boiler plants to be put into operation during next three years which replace the use of natural gas for heat production. In the WEM projection the total share of renewable energy sources in gross Final energy consumption in 2020 constitutes around 40% and increases up to around 42% in 2030. All these changes reduce emissions. In the WEM projection, Latvia remains a net importer of electricity during the projected period. Factors affecting the future energy demand are first of all energy efficiency measures, but also the economic development and structural changes within the industry.
