]limate ]hange and Poverty
2 ]ontinuing climate change at current rates will pose
increasingly severe challenges to development (WDR 2010).
2 Poor countries and poor people in all countries will be most
affected by climate change and are also most dependent on
environment and natural resources .
2 To stabilize atmospheric concentrations of GHGs at levels
that may be considered ¶safe·, estimates suggest the additional
investment costs for mitigation could be anywhere between
US$200 billion to over US$1 trillion per annum.
2 At least tens of billions of U.S. dollars per year should be
added to finance the cost of adaptation due to the inevitable
amount of warming that the world would experience.

Adaptation Financing Needs

Review

Oxfam US$8±33 billion

UNFCCC US$28±67 billion in 2030

UNDP US$86 billion/annum by 2016

WDR US$30-100 billion a year

Adaptation Financing
2 In a very real sense development is the best
adaptation ² investing in skills, health, knowledge,
better infrastructure and a more diversified
economy will render countries more climate-
resilient.
2 The traditional public sector role of investing in
human capital and infrastructure, creating the
enabling environment for private sector growth,
and providing public goods is, if anything, more
urgent in the context of climate change.
4
Adaptation Financing+
In addition, the public sector plays three key roles:

2 ¶climate-proofing· public infrastructure investments


2 providing public goods that will enable effective private actions on
adaptation (research and development on new technologies such
as drought-resistant crops, providing weather forecasts and climate
risk assessments, and agricultural extension services)
2 establishing the policy framework for adaptation, which sets the
incentive framework for private sector action.
u (i) pricing policies that encourage efficient use of energy, water,
agriculture and other natural resources;
u (ii) fiscal incentives for research and development to exploit existing
technologies or develop new ones in the energy, water-supply,
agricultural, forestry, and livestock sectors; and
u (iii) regulatory and insurance environment that convey the correct
incentives for adaptation.

World Bank Portfolio Tracking: Status
† Tracking with appropriate granularity the WBG investments with
adaptation and mitigation co-benefits across the entire portfolio and all
core funding sources
Ô part of broader work on a Results Framework for climate action

† (: Following the sector/theme code model, introduce 2 new SAP


fields linked to existing sector codes
Ô based on investment activity typologies (to be vetted by respective Sector Boards),
TTLs will allocate what percentage of a project·s individual sector allocations could
be attributed as adaptation and/or GHG co-benefits

Ô tracking for GHG co-benefits is an interim solution and will be superseded by


GHG analysis, if and when that is approved for the WB

† Y3: GHG analysis already introduced; manual tracking of adaptation


investments given small number of projects
