The Report reinforces the scientific view that CO2 is the primary GHG that needs to be drastically reduced to achieve the global temperature goal as agreed in the Paris Agreement.
Addressing the Plenary Session at G7 Ministers' meeting on climate, energy and environment in Sapporo, Japan, he said the global goal of reaching net zero by 2050 requires enhanced descaling of emissions by the developed countries. This will provide space for countries like India to achieve the development required for its people, which will provide necessary defence against the impacts of climate change, environmental degradation and pollution.
Collective action guided by the founding principles of the Rio Conventions is required to save our planet from the challenges of climate change and pollution, he said adding that while some progress has been collectively made through the process of UNFCCC, CBD, UNCCD, there is an urgent need for greater action to deal with the three challenges.
Yadav said reaching targets on carbon neutrality and increased ambition will not fly unless they are made keeping Equity and CBDR-RC consideration in view as well as unless the developed countries meet their commitments to provide means of implementation.
The Union Minister said individual actions have the potential of a revolution. At COP 27 in Sharm el Sheikh, the importance of sustainable lifestyles and sustainable patterns of consumption and production to combat climate change was underscored.
