World leaders to gather in Paris for climate change talks

Mathur, also the Director General of Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), had said the remarks mean that nations could not put forward their point of views during the Paris climate change negotiations especially if the views were not in line with the US.

A 16-member delegation of UC San Diego scientists and students will join the worldwide climate negotiations in France next week to press for action on climate change. He said that mitigation of climate change can only happen when all world acts together and India will be a facilitator and not blocking any deal. He threatened the economic stability and security of countries.

The official said that while India in absolute terms is the third largest greenhouse gas emitter in the world after China and the USA, its contribution is much smaller than the other two.

What would you do on your first day in an incredibly hot office? I say this often, but that’s because it’s always at the front of my mind: We’ve got to preserve this lovely planet of ours for our kids and grandkids. Now, we’ve made a lot of progress to cut carbon pollution here at home, and we’re leading the world to take action as well. The expected outcome of the conference is a new worldwide agreement on climate change, applicable to all, to keep global warming below 2°C. But we’ve got to do more. While both have seen the possibilities of signing up an agreement for future technologies they are yet to resolve radical differences on intellectual property rights in existing clean technologies and how to reduce the cost for the same. “United States wanted to divide and their game plan is already on”, the source was quoted by PTI as saying. The special envoy from China Xie Zhenhua, who will attend the summit, has defended the decision of his country to build more power plants that are coal fired.

And under his leadership, other countries are following suit. In response to the UN’s call, more than 166 countries, which collectively account for more than 90 per cent of emissions, have now submitted national climate plans with targets.

“Many countries still disagree on key issues, such as how to pay for the worst impacts that are hitting the poor and vulnerable the hardest”.

Obama also will meet with French President Francois Hollande, as well as with leaders of island nations, such as the Seychelles and Marshall Islands, that are threatened by rising sea levels.

Instead, the reality of the global threat being represented by climate change is setting in. For example, they are using and sharing new farming techniques to make sure they can provide nutritious food for their families in a changing climate.
