5. BACKGROUND
•IN THE LONG HISTORY CLIMATE CHANGES TIME
TO TIME.
•EARTH HAS WARMED TIME TO TIME.
•THE GLOBAL AVERAGE SURFACE TEMPERATURE
ROSE 0.6 TO 0.9 DEGREES CELSIUS (1.1 TO 1.6° F)
BETWEEN 1906 AND 2005, AND THE RATE OF
TEMPERATURE INCREASE HAS NEARLY
DOUBLED IN THE LAST 50 YEARS.

6. TRENDS OF GREENHOUSE GASES
•GLOBAL WARMING IS THE UNUSUALLY RAPID INCREASE
IN EARTH’S AVERAGE SURFACE TEMPERATURE OVER THE
PAST CENTURY PRIMARILY DUE TO THE GREENHOUSE
GASES RELEASED AS PEOPLE BURN FOSSIL FUELS.
•THE GLOBAL AVERAGE SURFACE TEMPERATURE ROSE 0.6
TO 0.9 DEGREES CELSIUS (1.1 TO 1.6° F) BETWEEN 1906
AND 2005, AND THE RATE OF TEMPERATURE INCREASE
HAS NEARLY DOUBLED IN THE LAST 50 YEARS.

9. IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON
AGRICULTURE IN PAKISTAN
•PAKISTAN IS AN AGRICULTURAL COUNTRY AND
IT RANKS 12TH MOST VULNERABLE COUNTRY
AFFECTED BY CLIMATE CHANGE AND ITS MAIN
AFFECT ARE ON AGRICULTURE SECTOR.
•COUNTRY WAS AFFECTED BY INCREASE IN
TEMPERATURE AS WELL AS CHANGES IN
PRECIPITATION.

10. CONT…
•MAIN CROPS OF PAKISTAN ARE WHEAT, RICE, COTTON
AND SUGARCANE.
•GREATER LOSS EXPECTED IN RABI AND RABI CROP IS
WHEAT.
• EVERY 1% INCREASE IN TEMPERATURE REDUCES
WHEAT PRODUCTION BY 4-5 MILLION TONS.
•IT IS EXPECTED THAT CEREAL PRODUCTIVITY IS
DECREASE BY 10-40%BY 2100.

11. MAIN REASONS OF INCREASING
THE RISK OF HUNGER
EXTREME WEATHER EVENTS
• CLIMATE CHANGE INCREASES THE FREQUENCY AND
INTENSITY OF SOME DISASTERS SUCH AS
DROUGHTS, FLOODS AND STORMS.
• THIS HAS AN ADVERSE IMPACT ON LIVELIHOODS
AND FOOD SECURITY.

12. CONTII..
•CLIMATE-RELATED DISASTERS HAVE THE
POTENTIAL TO DESTROY CROPS, CRITICAL
INFRASTRUCTURE, AND KEY COMMUNITY
ASSETS, THEREFORE DETERIORATING
LIVELIHOODS AND INCREASE POVERTY.

13. CONT…
LONG-TERM AND GRADUAL CLIMATE RISK:
•SEA LEVEL WILL RISE AS A RESULT OF CLIMATE
CHANGE, AFFECTING LIVELIHOODS IN
COASTAL AREAS AND RIVER DELTAS.
•ACCELERATED GLACIAL MELT WILL ALSO
AFFECT THE QUANTITY AND RELIABILITY OF
WATER AVAILABLE AND CHANGE PATTERNS OF
FLOODING AND DROUGHT.

14. IMPACTS ON HUNGER IN
PAKISTAN
•DURING THE LAST TWO DECADES, 200 MILLION
HAVE BEEN LIFTED OUT OF HUNGER.
•THE RATE OF CHRONIC MALNUTRITION IN
CHILDREN HAS DECREASED FROM 40 TO 26
PERCENT.
•ACCORDING TO THE WORLD BANK, 702 MILLION
PEOPLE STILL LIVE IN EXTREME POVERTY.

15. CONT…
•ACCORDING TO 2017 REPORT ON THE STATE
OF FOOD INSECURITY IN THE WORLD (SOFI),
793 MILLION PEOPLE ARE UNDERNOURISHED.
• AMONG THE MOST SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS OF
CLIMATE CHANGE IS THE POTENTIAL
INCREASE OF FOOD INSECURITY AND
MALNUTRITION.

17. HUNGER IN SOUTH AFRICA

18. 13.1- Strengthen resilience and adaptive capacity to
climate related hazards and natural Disasters in all
countries
13.2- Integrate climate change measures into national
policies strategies and planning.
GOAL 13. TAKE URGENT ACTION TO COMBAT
CLIMATE CHANGE AND ITS IMPACTS

19. CONTII..
• 13.3 IMPROVE EDUCATION AWARENESS
RAISING AND HUMAN AND INSTITUTIONAL
CAPACITY ON CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION,
ADAPTATION, IMPACT REDUCTION AND
EARLY WARNING.

20. 13.a Implement the commitment undertaken by developed
country parties to the UNFCC on Climate Change to a goal of
mobilizing jointly $100 billion annually by 2020 from all
sources to address the needs of developing countries in the
context of meaningful mitigation actions and transparency on
implementation and fully operationalize the Green Climate
Fund through its capitalization as soon as possible.
Goal 13. Take urgent action to combat climate
change and its impacts

21. CONTII…
•13.B PROMOTE MECHANISMS FOR RAISING
CAPACITY FOR EFFECTIVE CLIMATE CHANGE
RELATED PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT IN LEAST
DEVELOPED COUNTRIES AND SMALL ISLAND
DEVELOPING STATES, INCLUDING FOCUSING ON
WOMEN, YOUTH AND LOCAL AND MARGINALIZED
COMMUNITIES.

22. CLIMATE CHANGE POLICY
PAKISTAN'S PER CAPITA EMISSIONS OF
GREENHOUSE GASES TODAY IS ONE OF THE
LOWEST IN THE WORLD. YET IT RANKS
AMONGST THE TOP TEN COUNTRIES MOST
AFFECTED BY CLIMATE CHANGE DURING THE
LAST TWENTY YEARS.
EXTREME CLIMATIC EVENTS HAVE RESULTED
IN TRAGIC LOSS OF LIVES AND DAMAGE TO
THE ECONOMY.

23. CONTII..
•THE FRAMEWORK FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF THE
NATIONAL CLIMATE CHANGE POLICY FOR THE PERIOD
2014-2030 SERVES TO INTEGRATE CLIMATE-FRIENDLY
POLICIES INTO OUR NATIONAL AND ECONOMIC
PLANNING.
•PAKISTAN IS A PARTY TO THE UNITED NATIONS
FRAMEWORK CONVENTION ON CLIMATE CHANGE
(UNFCCC), 1992; AND KYOTO PROTOCOL TO THE
UNFCCC, 1997. LT IS ALSO INITIATED THE PROCESS FOR
RATIFYING THE PARIS AGREEMENT, 2015.

24. HE LEAD CLIMATE ACTION PROGRAMME
(L-CAP) 2007 AIMS TO ENABLE EFFECTIVE,
PRIORITIZED NATIONAL AND
INTERNATIONAL RESPONSES TO CLIMATE
CHANGE BY A CROSS-SECTION OF KEY
PAKISTANI STAKEHOLDERS.
LEAD CLIMATE CHANGE PROGRAMME

25. CONTII..
ONGOING INITIATIVES
1. MONITORING, EVALUATION AND LEARNING
(MEL) PROGRAMME OF THE UK GOVERNMENT
INTERNATION CLIMATE FUND.
2. PARTNERSHIP WITH HIMALAYAN ADAPTATION,

NETWORK-CDKN.
•CLIMATE CHANGE POLICY AND ACTION PLANS.
•CLIMATE PUBLIC EXPENDITURE AND
INSTITUTIONAL REVIEW (CPEIR) FOR PAKISTAN.
•BUILDING A COMMUNITY OF PRACTICE ON
COMMUNITY BASED ADAPTATION
•BUILDING CAPACITY ON CLIMATE CHANGE
ADAPTATION IN COASTAL AREAS OF PAKISTAN.

27. •IT IS A SCALING UP OF THE “BILLION
TREE TSUNAMI” HIS PARTY PAKISTAN
TEHREEK-E-INSAF (PTI) CARRIED OUT
IN KHYBER PAKHTUNKHWA
PROVINCE, RESTORING 350,000
HECTARES OF FOREST.
IMRAN KHAN IS AIMING TO PLANT 10 BILLION TREES
IN FIVE YEARS AS PRIME MINISTER OF PAKISTAN

28. CONTII..
•PTI IS THE ONE PARTY WHICH HAS TAKEN A
BOLD INITIATIVE ON THE GREEN PLATFORM,” HE
SAID. “PAKISTAN IS FACING THE BRUNT OF
CLIMATE CHANGE, SO I THINK CLIMATE
PREPARATION, MAKING SURE OUR
DEVELOPMENT IS TOTALLY CLIMATE
COMPATIBLE, OUR INFRASTRUCTURE IS
RESILIENT TO CLIMATE SHOCKS, IS GOING TO BE
VERY HIGH PRIORITY.”

29. CONTII...
•PM HOPES THAT AFTER
PLANTATION OF 10 BILLION
TREES, PAKISTAN’S WEATHER
PATTERN WOULD CHANGE
ALTOGETHER.
