Paris Climate

On World Environment Day, the Brihanmumbai Corporation (BMC) has introduced a climate budgeting process to work on achieving the goals set by the Paris Agreement.

While hard numbers are difficult to come by, a conservative estimate is that India accounts for at least 25% of the credits issued to date.

Humanity must preserve Earth before dreaming of colonising Mars because even nuclear war and unbridled climate change cannot make the red planet more liveable, Barack Obama said Wednesday.

About 90 per cent of the Himalayan Region will experience drought lasting over a year if global warming increases by 3 degrees Celsius, according to new research.

Breaching the Paris Agreement's temperature goal of two degrees Celsius could significantly melt the Filchner Ronne Ice Shelf in Antarctica, the second largest ice sheet on Earth, and could substantially contribute to raising global sea levels.

Following a year of record heat and drought, this year's UN climate summit will feature a contentious set of issues for countries working to find common ground in tackling climate change.

The high temperature is a result of burning of fossil fuels, which pumped in heat-trapping gases into the atmosphere.

To achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, developing countries will require approximately $4 trillion annually for clean energy technologies by 2030.

While progress has been made in combating climate change, the world is far from being on track to meet the long-term goals of the Paris Agreement, says a technical report on the first-ever Global Stocktake (GST) published on Friday.

China's Premier Li Qiang and dozens of world leaders will meet in Paris on Thursday and Friday to discuss ways to help low-income countries manage their debt burdens and free up funding for climate financing.

World leaders will gather in Paris this week with ambitions to reimagine global financing for a new era shaped by climate change, as a cascade of crises swamps debt-burdened countries.

Police fired tear gas to disperse climate protesters trying to block an annual general meeting of French oil giant TotalEnergies in Paris on Friday.

The country is also cracking down on the use of private jets for short journeys in a bid to make transport greener and fairer for the population.

Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber, COP28 UAE President-Designate, on Wednesday emphasised the need to mobilise resources and partnerships towards bold and transformative approach to climate action.

Limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius is currently not plausible, according to a new report.
