Population in 2011: about 87 million GDP growth in 2011: 5.89%
Climate: monsoon tropical
Annual mean temperature: 12.8-27.7°C
Average annual rainfall: 1,400-2,400mm
GHG emission in 2000: 151 Tg CO2 e
Temperature:According to the medium
emission scenario:
→ Mid of 21st century: annual mean temperature would increase 1.2-1.6°C
→ End of 21st century: annual mean temperature would increase 1.6-2.8°C

Viet Nam signed United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) on 11 June 1992 and ratified it on 16 November 1994. Viet Nam also signed Kyoto Protocol (KP) on 03 December 1998 and ratified it on 25 September 2002.
Viet Nam is not required to reduce greenhouse gases (GHG) emission but GHG mitigation options have been developed for GHG main sources (Energy, Agriculture, Forestry) in the country

the world market
Plan of GHG emission management; management of carbon trading activities to
the world market
Approved on 21 November 2012
Objectives:
carrying out the UNFCCC and other related treaties that Viet Nam has involved in;
taking oppoturnities to develop a low carbon economy and green growth in the country
joining the international community’s efforts in mitigating GHG emissions and contributing to sustainable development
Scope of time: now to 2020
Principal contentsPrincipal contents
Management of GHG emissions Inventorying the national GHG for the base year 2005 and
develop basic emission scenarios
Carrying out the targets of GHG emission reduction and GHG absorption increasing by 2020 (base year: 2005)
Energy: 8% Agriculture: 20% LULUCF: 20% Waste: 5%
Assessing technology needs; disseminating and applying potential technologies of GHG emission reduction and GHG absorption increasing.
