#COP26 #NetZeroIndia
Speaking at the 26th Conference of Parties (COP-26) in Glasgow, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that India will achieve net-zero emissions by 2070. The PM has also announced that India will raise its non-fossil energy capacity to 500 GW by 2030 while meeting 50 per cent of its energy demand through renewables.
Here’s our reaction:
“India has now put the ball in the court of the developed world. India demands $1 trillion of climate finance as soon as possible and will monitor not just climate action, but delivered climate finance.” – Arunabha Ghosh from Glasgow.
