| Summary/Abstract |
Overall the COP28 presents a mixed outcome but not encouraging or one about which people across the globe may feel happy. The final agreement included loopholes, and deferred decisions on different significant issues. The Agreement also could be marked at relatively low levels of funding pledges compared to what is needed to make progress as the incidence of global warming increases. The outcomes of COP28 may be slow and less on ambitions, still such multilateral efforts and processes are necessary for making incremental steps in the right direction in future. COP28 was a major challenge before the oil producer countries as they are solely dependent upon the same.

| Summary/Abstract |
In order to abide by Net Zero by 2070, India needs to avoid investment in new installation of coal-based plants. Most of the equipments of these plants are imported from the countries which are advocating coal phase out or need to cut their coal based emissions. Need 100% replacement of petroleum based automobiles. Country needs to develop capacity for hydrogen fuelcell based automobiles rather than going to batteries as the disposal of battery is a problem. Also, the raw material needed for batteries is not sufficiently available in India. Also, there are other issues such as supply of electricity for charging batteries and network of battery recharging stations across India which favor fuel cell over batteries.

| Summary/Abstract |
“India is committed to the process and principles of UNFCC” . It has reduced emissions from agriculture by changing crop pattern. India’s action plan against climate change announced at COP 26 was updated which differentiates responsibilities along with corresponding competencies by which sustainable development goals can be achieved and emission of carbon can be reduced. Thermal power is indispensable for its reliability compared to solar and wind sources in view of growing demand for power in India. CCUS to capture emissions from CO2 spewing industries is being developed by India. Application of the technology requires huge investment with filter down effect on the price of the product. Storage infrastructure for the captured CO2, investment, tax incentives etc. are important for its success.

| Summary/Abstract |
Climate change is fast-paced and inevitable reality, that is heading our way, posing a risk to the existence of entire human kind. A significant aspect of climate change lies in the dynamic two-way interaction of our food systems and the warming planet. The two are mutually reinforcing each other. This article revolves around this dynamicity, examined through the lens of economy, geography and social connotations.

| Summary/Abstract |
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.
