Summary / Abstract (Note) | As COP28 drew to a close in Dubai, it marked a pivotal moment in global climate negotiations, symbolising a unified commitment to shift away from all fossil fuels. India, playing a central role in shaping COP outcomes, skillfully navigated discussions, aligning its national priorities with the broader global need for climate action and opting for a transition from coal rather than a phased elimination. Despite India’s ongoing efforts in climate adaptation, projections indicate a substantial financial requirement of Rs 57 lakh crore for adaptation alone by 2030 in a “business as usual” scenario, emphasising the urgency for robust climate financing. |
