PM Modi inaugurates international climate dynamics conference in New Delhi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurated the International Conference on ‘The Future of Environment and Climate Dynamics’ in New Delhi. Organized by the National Green Tribunal (NGT), the two-day event brings together environmental experts, scientists, and judicial representatives from 17 countries to discuss environmental governance and climate challenges.

During his address, PM Modi emphasized that India is providing solutions to modern climate challenges by bridging ancient cultural wisdom with modern execution. He noted that India has fulfilled its Paris Agreement (COP-21) commitments ahead of schedule and highlighted the nation's strategic pivot toward renewable energy. The Prime Minister also criticized the global narrative regarding carbon footprints, stating that developing nations are often unfairly blamed, whereas India’s per capita carbon emissions remain less than half of the global average.

Chief Justice of India Surya Kant also addressed the conference, discussing the evolution of environmental jurisprudence and the constitutional responsibility of both the state and citizens to protect the environment. The event serves as a platform for exchanging judicial approaches, scientific knowledge, and institutional experiences to strengthen global environmental policy and enforcement.
