Ban calls on India to put forth commitments on climate change
Source: The Times of India, Date: , 2014
UN chief Ban Ki-moon has called on India, the world's
third-largest emitter, to spell out its nationally determined commitment on
reducing emissions by June, saying a "constructive" role played by it
will make a universal climate agreement possible in Paris next year. Against
the backdrop of significant announcements by the US and China on limiting
greenhouse gases, the secretary general looks to India to also announce its own
intended nationally determined commitment (INDCs) by June next year ahead of
the 2015 climate conference in Paris where the new universal treaty on climate
change will be adopted.
