India to achieve most of COP 21 climate change goals in next 1.5 years
Prime Minister of India said that India will achieve most of the COP 21 climate change goals set for 2030 in the next one and half years. In his address to the Indian community at the UNESCO headquarters, he said there was a lot of talk about dangers of climate change but action was not evident.
The 21st session of the Conference of the Parties (COP21) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) was held in Paris from November 30 to December 12 2015 that saw the participation of 195 nations.
The nations negotiated and adopted the Paris Agreement in which India made four commitments, including reducing greenhouse gas emission intensity of its GDP by 33-35% below 2005 levels by 2030, under its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC).
