we need more videos on climate, more awareness needs to be spread

[InduDas]

this is EXACTLY the type of video, I wished Mr. Gupta would make. brief and to the point.

Simran you explained very well. Kudos to the print for bringing some new young talent.

1 trillion dollars from developed countries to facilitate renewable energy production.
Very good argument 👏 👏 👏

We have to make India great again, but this can't be done without taking care of our planet. Shame that we have committed to net-zero by 2070, which literary means "forget it and leave it for the future generations" - bitter but true.

Simran u have the most soothing voice out there, thanks

@3:16 ... that's the exact point where a per capita emission comparison would have established some sense of objectivity, maybe even un-hyphenated.

Nuclear is not a renewable source of energy. You need radio active materials, like Uranium and Thorium to power the Nuclear power plants

Thanks ma'am...

We don't hesitate to say that India is no longer a poor country in fact we are on way to becoming the top economy in the world. But when it comes to fighting the Climate change we take a U-turn by saying that we're still developing country and too poor to mitigate burning fossil fuel (even if this causes us to transfer huge amounts of wealth to the Middle-East). There are better technologies and affordable ways to produce cleaner electricity (then burning petrol/diesel/coal), we just need to generate awareness.

2070? Will India even be liveable by 2070? LOL

[suvrotica]

The world as we see it won't be like this forever, it's what you take for granted that you miss the most. Millions of people will be stricken with poverty and diseases, millions will be displaced. If ever there was a life that was worth preserving, a conscious life would be one, but our fictions that bring us together will cause our eventual extinction. Not just individual deaths, but the very prospect of being born, will be gone. If we can only get our shit together, there's a sliver of chance, however small, that this can be avoided. But I don't see any proof of that reflected in events around the globe, with leaders simply trying to shove the onus of action to another time, as if we have it. With so little science education and so much dogmatism and religiosity, there's a monument of work that needs to be done, to get people to even "see" reality as it exists, and until that time, there's very little that can be done. It's the need for bread and the greed for short-term solutions that's going to dominate the thinking, not long-term durable, wide-ranging, tough actions. I like your earrings though...

Target is 2030.India 2070 AD.Take average to suit all .So 70+30/2=50 So all sgrees 2050 Thik hai

[indianmastiff]

What exactly will this mean for the indian person to reduce emissions by 2070. Need to stop talking about india being the 3rd biggest emitter, you need to use per capitia per person emissions. Not right to compare 1billion indians to australians. Aussies emit far higher emissions per person than an your average indian

[themarmy]

We all are doomed. Why not to bring them zero to next year. Im ready to live my life like a normal person without luxuries but save planet.

[AmitSharma-gsxs]

There was no clear information In this entire video. Even cut the clutter on this topic was more informative.

[Aman-lbdd]

Very poor speech. Need to work on the communication part more.

[Peacetoall]

Ambitious targets for a developing country... maybe govt has a blueprint
