India Carbon Emissions

The EU argues that this mechanism creates a level playing field for domestically manufactured goods, which must adhere to stricter environmental standards, and helps reduce emissions from imports.

The Adani Ports and Special Economic Zone (APSEZ) has been recognized by Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), a global non-profit, for its exceptional efforts in tackling climate change and implementing best practices across its supply chain.

While hard numbers are difficult to come by, a conservative estimate is that India accounts for at least 25% of the credits issued to date.

While carbon sources release more carbon into the atmosphere than they absorb, carbon sinks absorb more carbon from the atmosphere than they release.

Interim Budget 2024: In an effort to achieve net-zero carbon emissions, India will solarise rooftops of one crore households and provide viability gap funding for harnessing offshore wind energy potential with an initial capacity of one gigawatt

Clubbing India with emitters like China and the US is completely unacceptable as its per capita emissions are "very low", a senior official of the European Parliament said today.

India already has a highly advanced atomic energy programme and in an effort to control carbon emissions the plan is to triple generation of carbon free nuclear energy to 22,000 megawatts by 2032.

India's per capita carbon dioxide emissions rose by around five per cent in 2022 to reach 2 tonnes but these were still less than half of the global average, according to a report released today.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi today called on all nations to work together to cut global emissions drastically. At the COP28 Summit in Dubai, PM Modi today said India's emissions are very low compared to other nations whose population is much less.

The big, global push to paint India as a climate bugbear has started taking shape. All fingers are pointing at India, criticisms are growing on New Delhi's energy policy and how it is apparently not in sync with global standards.

Billionaire Gautam Adani's renewable energy company is targeting to set up 45 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy capacity by 2030, as it looks to cut emissions and help India meet its carbon neutrality target.

Virat Kohli's trip on the chartered flight from the Caribbean attracted criticism from some social media users.

Industrialised nations of the Global North, such as the US and Germany, are responsible for 90 percent of excessive levels of carbon dioxide emissions, and could be liable to pay a total of USD 170 trillion in compensation to low-emitters like India.

Meeting the global target of achieving net zero emissions by 2050 will require developed nations to scale up their emission reduction efforts, India said at the G7 Ministers Meeting on Climate Energy and Environment in Japan's Sapporo on Saturday.

India's nuclear power sector is saving 41 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually, compared to emissions that would have been generated by equivalent electricity generation from coal-based thermal power plants,
