## ANSWER

## MINISTER  OF  STATE  IN  THE  MINISTRY  OF  ENVIRONMENT,  FOREST  AND CLIMATE CHANGE (DR. MAHESH SHARMA)

(a),  (b)  and  (c)United  States  of  America  (USA)  is  the  second  largest  Greenhouse  Gas  (GHG) emitter  presently.  However,  if  cumulative  historical  emission  is  considered,  USA  would  be largest GHG emitter. So, its withdrawal will affect control of cumulative global GHG emissions. It  will  also  affect  the  availability  of  international  funds  for  climate  change,  as  USA  was  a contributor to climate finance.

There is  no  proposal  to  rework  the  modalities  of  Paris  Agreement.  The  Paris  Agreement  was adopted under United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in 2015. It has been ratified by 172 Parties and only USA has submitted a written communication to UN Secretary-General stating its intent to withdraw from the Paris Agreement. All other countries have  indicated  their  continued  support  for  it  through  the  decision,  'Fiji  Momentum  for Implementation' adopted during 23 rd Conference of Parties (COP-23) held in November 2017, which underscored the importance of keeping the momentum and continuing to uphold thespirit and vision of the Paris Agreement.

(d)A  preliminary  estimate  suggests  that  at  least  US  $2.5  trillion  (at  2014-15  prices)  will  be required for meeting India's climate change actions between 2015 and 2030, which is expected to evolve over time. The estimate covers both the domestic resources and the international climate finance.  The  foreign  aid  India  is  expected  to  receive  under  the  Paris  Agreement  is  subject  to quantum of available  international  climate  finance  in  the  post-2020  period,  which  is  a  matter under negotiations currently.
