Focus was on 450 GW Renewable Energy: US special climate envoy John Kerry to India
Net zero emission target did not figure prominently in deliberations with India, US special climate envoy John Kerry has said. There was strong focus on the country’s 450 GW renewable energy target as it would help India to go ahead towards holding the 1.5-degree Celsius commitment.
Interacting with journalists in New Delhi on Tuesday, Kerry said he urged India to include it as part of its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) in the upcoming COP26 climate talks. India had committed to a 175GW renewable energy target in its NDC under the Paris Agreement.
