Bangladesh Submited its Climate Action Plan Ahead of 2015 Paris Agreement. It was at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). This comes well in advance of a new universal climate change agreement which will be reached at the UN climate conference in Paris, in December this year. It was end of September, 2015.


Seventy Four parties to the UNFCCC have formally submitted their Intended Nationally Determined Contributions.

The Paris agreement will come into effect in 2020, empowering all countries to act to prevent average global temperatures rising above 2 degrees Celsius and to reap the many opportunities that arise from a necessary global transformation to clean and sustainable development.
In December 2011, at the 17th Conference of the Parties (COP) in Durban, Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) decided to launch a process to develop a protocol, another legal instrument or an agreed outcome with legal force under the Convention applicable to all Parties, to be completed no later than 2015 and to come to effect and be implemented from 2020.
At COP 19 in Warsaw in December 2013, Parties were invited to initiate or intensify domestic preparations for their Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs) and to communicate them well in advance of COP 21 by the first quarter of 2015 (by those Parties ready to do so), in a manner that facilitates the clarity, transparency and understanding of the intended nationally determined contributions. Consequently, countries have begun to prepare their INDCs under some degree of uncertainty, but likely based on past experiences under the Convention.
