Abstract:
Lebanon became a party to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) in 1994, after having ratified the Convention as per Law 359. As a non-Annex I Party to the Convention, Lebanon has committed itself to regularly prepare, publish and report its national communication to the Conference of Parties to the UNFCCC. The country has submitted in 1999 and 2011 its First and Second National Communication respectively. While building on the work of the 2 previous reports, this Third National Communication (TNC) presents an improved methodology of national Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions for 2012 with a trend series for 1994-2012, and analysis of reduction potentials, climate change vulnerability, impacts and adaptation capacity. The content of the Third National Communication is the result of many consultations with academics and representatives from government institutions, private sector and non-governmental organizations, in order to capture their expert judgement in the sectors covered in the TNC, and to ensure improve-ment of data estimations and calculations compared to previous national communications.
