US, Russia vote against climate resolution on greenhouse emissions at UN, India abstains
The Paris climate agreement, adopted in 2015, aimed to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, a target that gave rise to the slogan “1.5 to stay alive”.
India submits its revised targets for 2031-35 to the UN's climate change body
The development comes after the Cabinet in March approved the nationally determined contributions (NDC) -- the non-binding, voluntary climate action plans that every country is obligated to decide upon and implement under the 2015 Paris Agreement.
