Mitigation Analysis \u2013 E &amp;Y; Domestic Measurement, Reporting and Verification \u2013 Millcon and Millcon Consult as well as other key national experts and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the strategic partner.<\/p>\n<p>Since the inception of joint global actions on climate change arising from the Rio Conventions of 1992, Nigeria has been active on many fronts. It has submitted the First National Communication (FNC) in 2003, the Second National Communication (SNC) in 2014 to meet the country\u2019s obligations to the UNFCCC. <\/p>\n<p>The Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) was submitted in 2015 within the framework of the Paris Agreement, while the third National Communication was the Permanent Secretary, Federal Ministry of Environment, Dr. Shehu Ahmed who opened a Stakeholders validation meeting for the Nigeria\u2019s First BUR in Keffi, Nassarawa State, organised by the Department of Climate Change (DCC) with the support of the United Nations Development Programme, recently, said that Ministry is committed to implementing the overall mandate of the Climate Change Convention and its Protocol. <\/p>\n<p>Represented by the National Project Coordinator, Nigeria Erosion and Watershed Management Project (NEWMAP), Mr. Salisu Dahiru, he said that Nigeria, like many developing nations, is strongly predisposed to severe negative impacts of climate change due to its fragile economy, weak resilience and low adaptive capacity. Much of the economy is dependent on climate-sensitive resources.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith the realization of the potential dangers of global warming and the consequent socio-economic implications to the whole world, the United Nations adopted the Framework Convention on Climate Change in 1992. The objective of the Convention is to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with climate system,\u201d he said.  <\/p>\n<p>Director, Department of Climate Change, Dr. Peter Tarfa explained that the document gives Nigeria an opportunity to communicate low carbon development efforts in a transparent manner.<\/p>\n<p>Following the National Stakeholders Validation of the document, Tarfa said, the endorsed document will\u00a0be submitted for the commencement\u00a0of the ICA process,\u00a0where it will be reviewed and analyzed,\u00a0upon which,\u00a0if meeting the\u00a0requirement and approved, it will be\u00a0published and made available on the UNFCCC website.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a hre=\"http:\/\/guardian.ng\/property\/nigeria-set-to-submit-greenhouse-gas-inventory\/\"> Guardian <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Former Deputy Vice Chancellor, University of Lagos, Prof. Jide Alao; representative of the Permanent Secretary, Federal &hellip; <a title=\"Nigeria set to submit greenhouse gas inventory\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/nigeria-set-to-submit-greenhouse-gas-inventory\/\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Nigeria set to submit greenhouse gas inventory<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":7596,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[4],"tags":[1399,1437,617,684,522,41],"class_list":["post-7595","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-opportunities-in-new-markets","tag-development","tag-gas","tag-house","tag-lagos","tag-nigeria","tag-property"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/Tarfa.jpg?fit=1280%2C720&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":5517,"url":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/fg-plans-greenhouse-gas-inventory-mitigation-actions\/","url_meta":{"origin":7595,"position":0},"title":"FG plans greenhouse gas inventory, mitigation actions","author":"Amazing Property","date":"July 31, 2017","format":false,"excerpt":"The Director, Department of Climate Change, Dr. Peter Tarfa(5th in front row); Kaduna State\u2019s Commissioner for Environment and Natural Resources, Mrs Amina Sijuwade; Deputy Director, DCC, Mrs. Halima Bawa-Bwari and Project consultant, Prof. Felix Dayo of Tripple E Systems Associates Limited during the Stakeholders workshop was organized by the Department\u2026","rel":"","context":"In &quot;Opportunities In New Markets&quot;","block_context":{"text":"Opportunities In New Markets","link":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/category\/opportunities-in-new-markets\/"},"img":{"alt_text":"","src":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/TNC-31-07-2017.jpg?fit=1200%2C675&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200","width":350,"height":200,"srcset":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/TNC-31-07-2017.jpg?fit=1200%2C675&ssl=1&resize=350%2C200 1x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/TNC-31-07-2017.jpg?fit=1200%2C675&ssl=1&resize=525%2C300 1.5x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/TNC-31-07-2017.jpg?fit=1200%2C675&ssl=1&resize=700%2C400 2x, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/TNC-31-07-2017.jpg?fit=1200%2C675&ssl=1&resize=1050%2C600 3x"},"classes":[]},{"id":1751,"url":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wike-assures-investors-of-land-tax-relief\/","url_meta":{"origin":7595,"position":1},"title":"Governor Wike assures investors of land, tax relief","author":"Amazing Property","date":"March 11, 2017","format":false,"excerpt":"Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has invited foreign and local investors to take advantage of the rapid developmental strides of his administration to invest in all sectors of the state\u2019s economy, in order to \u00a0 create jobs.
