It is a first step towards mainstreaming responses to the climate challenge into transport programs in Africa, and it represents the first time the Transport & ICT GP has produced a work plan for its investment and technical assistance operations that takes into account the content of countries’ Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and attempts to align World Bank support to the goals stated therein. The transport work plan under this Africa Climate Business Plan will consist of up to $3.2 billion in investments and technical assistance over the 2016-2020 period – including $2.8 billion in World Bank funds. Those investments will help to make progress on two strategic objectives: (1) improving the resilience of African transport infrastructure to climate change by defining four pillars of resilient transport; and (2) improving the carbon-efficiency of transport systems in Sub-Saharan Africa.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOWATER QUALITYFOREST DEGRADATIONTRANSPORT SECTORPOWER PLANTSTEMPERATUREDRIVERS OF DEFORESTATIONCARBON DIOXIDEFOSSIL FUELSAIR QUALITYEMISSION INTENSITYFOREST MANAGEMENTSOLAR HOME SYSTEMSGREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONSCARBONDEGRADED LANDSWMOSTORMSMETEOROLOGYHYDROLOGYWINDCLEAN ENERGYCLIMATESEMISSIONSGREENHOUSE EMISSIONSATMOSPHEREPOWER SUPPLYINCENTIVESFOREST RESTORATIONNUTRIENTSGASGLOBAL GREENHOUSE GASGLOBAL GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONSEROSION CONTROLACIDIFICATIONCARBON” SINKSCARBON TECHNOLOGIESAIRGREENHOUSE GASPESTICIDESSEVERE WEATHERHYDROLOGICAL CYCLEDULOSS OF FORESTBIOMASSAIR POLLUTANTSLANDFILLSGENERATION CAPACITYCO2FOREST SECTORENERGY MIXCARBON CAPTUREENERGY SOURCESFLOODSCAPACITYSUSTAINABLE USE OF FORESTSGLOBAL WARMINGLAND USE CHANGECARBON SEQUESTRATIONCONVENTION ON CLIMATE CHANGERAINFALLLAND DEGRADATIONDUMPSFORESTRYCYCLONESGREENHOUSE GAS CONCENTRATIONFOREST RESOURCESFOREST LOSSGAS EMISSIONSENERGY POLICYPRECIPITATIONMANGROVE FORESTSCARBON FINANCEFUELSUNEPCONSERVATION OF FORESTSCARBON MANAGEMENTGREENHOUSE GASESETCARBON EMISSIONSFOREST LANDSCAPELAND USEEMISSIONS REDUCTIONSFOREST CARBONGREENHOUSEEMISSIONBIODIVERSITY PROTECTIONECOSYSTEMLEADWOOD FUELSIPCCCLIMATE CHANGEDROUGHTCARBON STORAGEFOREST COVERELECTRICITYDEFORESTATIONCLIMATEFORESTSBUFFER ZONESFOREST INVESTMENTCOLORSELECTRICITY GENERATIONFOSSIL FUELCLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATIONHISTORICAL EMISSIONSFORESTCARBON ENERGYLIGHTNINGCOSUSTAINABLE FORESTLOW- CARBONINSOLATIONWEATHER PATTERNSENERGY PRODUCTIONSOLAR POWEREMISSIONS INVENTORIESENERGY EFFICIENCYCARBON ACCUMULATIONOCEANSLAKESCOMBUSTIONEMISSIONS FROM DEFORESTATIONCHARCOAL PRODUCTIONCARBON SINKSWEATHER CONDITIONSRAINLESSFOREST FIRESLOW-CARBONCLEAN TECHNOLOGYGAS CONCENTRATIONCARBON ACCOUNTINGGLOBAL ENVIRONMENT FACILITYRENEWABLE ENERGYCORAL REEFSGASESBUSINESS AS USUAL SCENARIOFOREST AREAFOREST DIEBACKDIESELEVAPORATIONGLOBAL FORESTREDUCED CO2LIQUID WASTEFRAMEWORK CONVENTION ON CLIMATE CHANGEPRICESNEGATIVE IMPACTSBENEFITSCARBON IN TREESENERGYReportWorld Bank10.1596/26083
