Rich countries need to do more on climate change : Jaishankar -Sriram Lakshman

-The Hindu

The External Affairs Minister criticized rich countries’ $100 billion per year commitment (made in 2009 and still unmet) to finance climate action in developing countries

External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar suggested that rich countries needed to do more in terms of their climate commitments and allow developing countries the space to grow. His comments were made during a discussion with former U.S. Ambassador to India, Frank Wisner, organised by the U.S. India Strategic Partnership Forum, an advocacy group.

In response to how India was approaching the UN Climate Conference (COP26) in Glasgow, Mr. Jaishankar said the world has limited good news going into Glasgow. He praised India’s climate commitments and for achieving its Paris Agreement (2015) milestones, suggesting more had to be done by developed countries.

There is international pressure on India to provide a date by when it will reach ‘net zero’ emissions and to revise up its Paris commitments. The U.S. Climate Envoy was in New Delhi earlier in September trying to push for bigger commitments from India before the Glasgow conference.
