INDC Short-Lived Climate Pollutant summaries

This is an informal and narrative analysis prepared by the CCAC Secretariat in collaboration with the Institute for Sustainable Governance (IGSD) to illustrate how 15 countries have integrated and accounted for short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) and air-pollution as part of their Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). It also summarizes how countries have pledged specific actions relevant to the reduction of SLCPs. While not all countries chose to list specific actions in their INDCs, many listed actions relevant to SLCPs, including fifty specifically targeting methane from the waste sector.
