Summary / Abstract (Note) | Climate change warrants committed action from governments. No nation can afford to ignore the issue any longer given the ripening science behind it and the growing international attention. China and India have been under keen spotlight in the arena of international climate politics. This is because the two countries are major developing economies with rising emissions rates comparable to those of the developed west.[1] China and India share varied challenges emanating from the climate problem because they have to simultaneously grapple with issues typical to the third world. As developing economies, the two nations have to address the calls of human security, poverty, unemployment, development, etc. Addressing the problem of climate change is bound to shape how these countries plan to grow and develop in the future. In charting out their responses to climate change as developing countries with unique national circumstances, China and India have adopted certain ideational principles. |
