Despite COP27 arriving at a momentous consensus, the deferment of key issues to future COPs has stalled concrete climate action
One should ask, if you cannot have one net-zero event per year, how can one expect whole countries to become net zero?
As a voice for the developing world and as the only G20 country that is on track to achieve its climate targets, India is poised to become a global cl
As nation-states and Big Tech firms continue to make advances in quantum computing, the ethical use of technology must be streamlined with R&D to
Developing countries are lagging behind in implementing decarbonisation policies as appropriate climate finance and green technology aren’t being ex
The mitigation of climate change will be successful only if water risks are factored in while drafting ‘climate-smart’ strategies.
The recently released IPCC report highlights the measures that need to be undertaken to achieve climate mitigation targets and the obstacles that will

E-mobility is not a magic pill that can cure all emissions ills, careful planning at the state level is required to ensure its success
BRI has so far only contributed to the rise of GHGs and not to the GDP of the host countries. Is China accruing economic benefits while exporting carb

Why the international community must stall European Parliament’s decision to include shipping in its emissions trading system
This brief discusses the climate change challenges facing the member states of the Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economic Cooperation (BIMSTEC) and the initiatives taken by them to mitigate the effects. The South Asian countries within BIMSTEC are particularly vulnerable to global warming-induced weather variations that cause economic damage and loss of lives. At the same time, BIMSTEC economies have achieved impressiv
एखाद्याने विचारले पाहिजे, जर तुमच्याकडे वर्षाला एक निव्वळ-शून्य इव्हेंट होऊ शकत नाही, तर संपूर्ण देश निव्वळ शून्य होण्याची अपेक्षा कशी करू शकते?.
Climate change and economic development are emotive subjects that are closely related: yet one is caused by the other. People’s lives are increasingly getting affected by the negative side-effects of climate change, particularly in developing countries which, at the same time, face enormous challenges to their aspirations for economic growth. Leading scientists agree that global warming is a reality and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are requir
The 2024 advisory opinion issued by the International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea (ITLOS), recognising GHG emissions as marine pollution, marks a pivotal intersection in maritime and climate governance. The opinion, while non-binding, establishes legal obligations for states to mitigate climate-induced marine impacts, including acidification, warming, and sea-level rise. It emphasises due diligence, transboundary impact assessments, and adher
Waste-to-energy (WtE) projects are often promoted as sustainable solutions for both renewable energy generation and GHG emissions reduction. However, their effectiveness is contingent on the fundamentals of sustainable waste management—including segregation, collection, and transportation—without which WtE plants risk exacerbating environmental and health risks by processing mixed waste, leading to toxic emissions and inefficient energy recov
Economic growth has historically been dependent on fossil fuels. Climate change mitigation, therefore, is often an obstacle for developing countries. Although efficiency in the use of energy sources has increased dramatically over the last decades, GHG emissions remain at steep levels. This brief argues that developed countries should increase pressures on the Global North for more robust emission cuts and greater provision of aid related to clim
Structural changes need to be brought to allow different financial sectors to invest in the green future of developing nations.
Climate change is a global commons problem requiring concerted actions by all. While recognising this, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change has also acknowledged the principle of ‘common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities,’ which assigns greater responsibilities to developed countries in mitigating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and reducing their carbon footprint. There have also been deliber
The 2021 Conference of Parties 26 (COP26) propelled nations to ramp up their climate targets and the concomitant Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. However, the updated NDCs and the announced pledges for 2030 remain insufficient and poorly aligned with the targets of the Paris Agreement. The reduction in projected 2030 emissions is estimated to be 7.5 percent—far lower than the 30 percent requi
