Glasgow/New Delhi, Nov 1 (UNI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday said that in the global climate debate the issue of adaptation had not got the attention it deserves, which he termed an injustice to developing nations, and outlined three proposals, including global support to Least Developed Countries to help them with their local adaptation techniques.
In his address at the COP26 Leader Level event – ‘Action and Solidarity-The Critical Decade’, the Prime Minister also outlined his own government’s initiatives like Har Ghar Jal, or Tap Water for All, Swachh Bharat, Green India Initiative, and Ujjwala clean cooking gas mission, which he said are bringing the benefits of adaptation techniques to the citizens.
“In the global climate debate, the issue of adaptation has not received the attention it deserves as mitigation has got. This is an injustice to the developing countries who are affected majorly by climate change,” he said.
