Pitch
This proposal is based on the emission reduction commitment made by Russia for the Paris Agreement.
Description
Summary
This seed proposal is based on the emission reduction commitment submitted by Russia for the UNFCCC's 2015 climate negotiations. It was created by a Climate CoLab staff member. We invite other CoLab members to link to this proposal or to use it as a starting point for creating new proposals of their own. The government of India has not reviewed or endorsed this proposal.
Commitment
Limiting anthropogenic greenhouse gases in Russia to 70-75% of 1990 levels by the year 2030.
Actions
Further legislative measure will be utilized for the achievement of the INDC based on the provisions of the Climate Doctrine and the Energy Strategy of the Russian Federation.
