Abstract:Nearly all the world's governments have prepared and submitted their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), setting out their climate pledges under the 2015 Paris Agreement. These NDCs are to be regularly updated, and many countries are expected to submit a new NDC in 2020. While several studies have assessed the content and potential impacts of the NDCs, this article focusses on the preparatory process and asks the question: under what conditions can countries be expected to develop NDCs that are suffici… Show more
“…Various countries in the world have made climate policy efforts in their respective regions in order to achieve the NDCs target in the Paris Agreement [15]. A research conducted by Röser et al [22] pay interest to the way of preparation and implementation stage of NDCs. If the preparation of NDCs is conducted by insufficient or inadequate data and analysis, or with the limitation of support from public and private sectors, then implementation of the NDCs by a country will not be realistic.…”

“…If the preparation of NDCs is conducted by insufficient or inadequate data and analysis, or with the limitation of support from public and private sectors, then implementation of the NDCs by a country will not be realistic. Therefore, the article written by Röser et al [22] seeks to explore the conditions of a country to develop NDCs in meeting the objectives of the Paris Agreement. Exploration is focused on three areas that consist from science related to politics and policy.…”
Under the Paris Agreement, countries around the world commit to achieving greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets as outlined in the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). While existing NDCs are on track to realize its target, this article focuses on analysis of implementation efforts in various countries that have ratified the Paris Agreement. The methodology enhances literature study on journals, books, and news by complementing it with details representation of implementation challenges and policy recommendations captured by the Parties. The results indicate that the major barriers for NDCs implementation in some countries are caused by the current policies that are very strong in mandates but it is weak in inducements. It can be seen from the absence of regulatory framework and policy coordination from sectoral to sub-sectoral level in its region. It is also prompted by the gaps that are identified in knowledge and capacity. Lack of awareness and substantial understanding across various stakeholders are the problem in the field. Emerging that the current implementation efforts are not enough to realize greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets, a set of policy recommendations based on robust analysis and data are proposed to address the challenges and to achieve expected emissions under NDCs goal by 2030.

“…This vagueness is, to some extent, by design, giving individual countries latitude in the establishment and conveyance of climate action priorities. For some countries, though, the vagueness in NDCs signals a set of capacity issues, as governments were required by first-round NDCs, in some instances for the first time, to identify nationallevel climate change mitigation and adaptation targets without an infrastructure or set of processes for the development of such targets (Röser et al, 2020).…”
Effective and legitimate governance of carbon dioxide removal (CDR) requires that the needs, interests, and perspectives of those liable to bear the burdens of CDR's effects be present in decision-making and oversight processes. This ideal has been widely recognized in prior academic work. How, though, in a practical sense, is this deliberative aspect of CDR governance to be understood? In this policy brief, we look at the future incorporation of carbon removal pledges into the nationally determined contributions (NDCs) of countries under the Paris Agreement, and we argue for and explore a deliberative orientation when it comes to the inclusion of CDR into country-level climate change response goals. The aim is to provide practical guidance on deliberation as a toolkit and set of practices.
“…Techno-institutional complexes explain the long-lasting carbon lock-in of many countries (Unruh, 2000). By contrast, international commitments like the Paris Agreement can help to increase the level of domestic policy ambition (Röser et al, 2020), making the choice of a 'dirty' option unlikely. Moreover, even institutional decisions initially unrelated to energy may matter.…”
