United States climate envoy Mr John Kerry visited India for a second time in six months, continuing the hardsell to get India to commit to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. The US also sees huge business opportunities in India’s climate actions, particularly 450 GW of renewables by 2030. An India-US Climate Action and Finance Mobilising Dialogue was jointly launched by Mr Kerry and India's environment minister Mr Bhupendra Yadav. It rightly underlines the importance of financing.
