11:34 am
is prime minister in a rental modi crated a lot of cop 26 this month by announcing some huge environmental pledges. they include a promise to pivots, ward green energy by 2030, and achieve net 0 emissions by 2070. the move comes india struggles with several climate related crises. the southern city of janai is under water from an unusually torrential monsoon season. and thousands of people have had to leave their homes and in the north, the moon river in new delhi is coated with toxic foam from industrial waste run off . meanwhile, the air quality in the capital is so bad that many schools closed this week. and you know, it has to tackle climate change, but it's also the world's 2nd most populous country, and its energy needs are growing. so leaders must figure out a way to fuel the booming economy while balancing environmental concerns. joining us to discuss in the is climate change pledges kabir arkell waldrum list for the wire and independent indian new site. beer is in glasgow at the club. 26 conference
11:35 am
and from london. re to park was the senior researcher for the international institute for environment and development. and finally, vive ob chart, a very, an economist for the council on energy environment and water, who is also in glasgow at cob $26.00. welcome to all of you have a similar question basically to start this off at all if you can bear how it has been received there. this news, as i said, i think there was surprise that this was announced the next you know, target because just a few days before the prime ministers and an announcement of the ministry, the in india's ministry for climate change was actually saying that we are not going to be announcing the next 0 year. so there was surprise that there was, it was welcomed mostly that that, that the india has finally announced the net 0 docket, which was, which has been sort of in discussion since the beginning at least the beginning of
11:36 am
this year. and for india has announced that so that brought in a sense, an end to that chapter of the debate because john kitty, in the and the developed world had been pushing india to announce on a job in many sense as it brought a sense of closure to that debate whether india is going to announce and it are then that is the broader question of how that is going to be achieved or a next, you know, part of it is going to look like which is something that we can we can discuss. absolutely. we will discuss this, i of that, that's a very good point. 32 am. how would you characterize how this has been received for you personally surprised by this? honestly, i was not surprised because see, there was a lot of discussion happening anyways at on 0 and the, you know, i've been very closely with mr. management wireless and it seemed like some big bank. some news was going to be enough. but i honestly,
11:37 am
if you look at the renewable energy and energy efficiency docket, which is what i'm more interested in that seems like a really boring topic. and for me, i would really like to come back. but there are some aspect of climate targets which are not announced at all, which are not, i like it. for example, in desk targeted on photos, v o common things. are you in any time with any pocket on an outpatient or not? and i'm, is that something with more pronounced and really expecting some, some announcement of some mention of those issues that one above or were you surprised what was your reaction to this? but yes, i think many was, were surprised, but we would have a pleasantly surprised. but let me say, well, there was a big 2 in the meeting that the parents matured earlier. the conclusion of the meeting was that you will not be an old player and had tactful a pretty big flu and i knew about it. so yes, there were still, there was a surprise that the no dual thing was not sort of officially get there. that's also
11:38 am
said. but having said that, you know, the. busy the industry is reacting very positively to the new to the ultimate linux and transformation and the industrial support a lot of money on the table. and there was a lot of them. so going to do earlier the, all the uncertainty community now goes away so that you know, very good has to be there didn't go any 70. and now investors have to move in there that it's, and if they, it's been a good development from that can be or what is the, is the headline to you? i mean there, she's 5 major points for what to you. is the biggest headline out of this announcement. yeah, i would agree. i think the 2030 the announcements, the targets, which have been announced to be met by 2030. those are of you. those are the real issues that we should be looking at, and those are the real targets because as the i p c, c has also said that we need to move in the direction of reducing emissions now. so in the next decade, so that is the next decade,
11:39 am
which is crucial to more than the net 0 target, which is 50 years away, which requires a larger, broader transformation which the 23rd 2 targets will feed into. so it's really the 2030 targets. i feel that that are really, really crucial and we need to focus heavily on that. it will, it will require a massive, massive effort to meet those targets. india has shown in the past as well with the 1st step of commitment that it made, that it has the capacity to meet its targets. the respect to climate change. it has almost met or 2 of its target, sir, with it, with respect to the purchase agreement. and so it has shown the way in that sense it has done better than most of most countries party to the buyer's agreement on meeting it's bad screen commitment. so, so that is what i think we should focus on in the next decade with that and, and, and that's what we could talk about as well. okay? so it rated this, you know, had getting half and a half, and you're getting half of its energy from renewables by 2030, that feasible to you have to see it's feasible by that. it's liddy aspiration.
11:40 am
aids of any ambitious. for example, you know, all the predictions say that india's bike, when he put be in the us, i'm on for a generation capacity will be some that are on it with by when you think 500, you mean, like you would almost be meeting in the target i'd like to do my renewal, which is almost like tripling existing production food and other than that. and in many things, if you look at the project other than the next, actually 2 by 2. so if you achieve so wondering if you use the 2nd similarity, if you me a deficiency and i the intensity fact if you meet the emission intensive emission reduction. so you know, in many times as people mentioning efficiency target. 9 almost on, you know,
11:41 am
because of the performance, even cheap scheme. you know, most of the industries, almost in line with that commitment. but the problem is on the energy efficiency and i think this is the target. the problem is many industries are almost reached a level of black flag in terms of their performance. they need to acknowledge the need finance to access the best available as national equality. but also, you know, we need to increase the amount of fi invention from the big industrial light industries, which are the focus of an official heat and ticket. think that focus also to the small and medium enterprises which will be that good. i. oh ok. i wanted to share, i'm a comment from one of our viewers. said this comment here says, i agree that the promise is up to 2020 that they need to meet, be met. but this year says capacity isn't the problem. political will, is the key 5. bob you've been privy to for meetings with,
11:42 am
with government officials, is the political will there to get this done? it is an, in fact, if you look at many of the big boundary form, does this part of the building of undertaken? in fact, our lists are, you know, they're all gone and they're doing not, it will go to you in the last name or if this is over and managed to achieve in like 5 years in earlier, almost. and this time also to be our board and the leadership is very strong, there is no doubt about it. it's very visible there. but let me also, you know, give us a disclaimer here of this. we are now not dealing with the, you know, a big program of electrification. of all the houses are providing you for all are connecting all dollars in the caps. now this is a very different thing, though, you're talking about, you know, massive distribution sector forms. and all you need to be with the, you know, complicated things like legal unions. and it is much more complicated than you know, just of providing electricity access, which is just what the infrastructure developer needs. and you could do it
11:43 am
a lot more easily as compared to dealing with and gauging with, you know, lighting within the labor unions. the because nat geo is essentially in a climate transformation again and many of the sort of distortions in the, in the market on the, in the spectrum that you market both on demand and the supply state. those distortions have to be dealt with it now. and this needs distance of a different kind of political economy as 2 modes and the federal political con. mean the government will need to deal with. that is how the, the biggest challenge comes and you talk about labor unions. we're talking about people. i mean, this is not some abstract thing. we're talking about this having to fund a mental change in the way that a country operates. and is there people that are being affected by the, by what is happening with climate change? i want to play something from, from a gentleman who's come in whose background is from a farming family who talks about what some of the adaptive measures are that we need to, to, to address this. yes. so all in a climate there was in see,
11:44 am
and we face extreme over their events. st. launched gosselin, oceans flags. what have rights, his unimed bag, shona because your land rover depend on nature is very my severe india should completely more evasive. was it for you as if we are and he means to address climate crisis and there is no way out of that. and also in the, i should remember some of the asian receipts and said about patients to ensure glamour. this is to protect his beeper. and to ensure for a set, predicted and also indian is communities are predicted at the same time, darkest, ascension, and zeros are providing father who you're close to continued to meet more an existing waiting designation off of lemay crisis. and unfortunately, pictures like what you see here, we see them over and over and over again. there are families who will build and then rebuild and, and their homes are destroyed again. they continue to get and display. so as john
11:45 am
paul say, we're in the climate emergency right now, and he talks about the justice aspect of that. so re, to what is being done to help people that continue to get pounded impounded by climate change. while the bigger steps are trying to be made to mitigate it, that's exactly what i was saying, you know, be. then we saw that in the more the speech. he didn't talk about it after i've even thought about lawson damage. and that's exactly what this gentleman was saying, the them, it impacts either under some impact which already lumpkin and that's causing losses and damage. people are not, it was like that them anymore. and, you know, leave, you simply comply some case studies. and irrespective of what kind of climate impacts people are facing with a slab brow. i clue what i'm saying is common people are getting misplaced now, forced to migrate. and right now we do not have any ways in which we are able to support these migrant. we saw a similar situation when we had court cases in india. any saw see of people who are
11:46 am
going back are the most my vision happening. you didn't have any and we recently did the, the side very saw that, but people are close to my reason that dismiss from their home. they are exposed to other vulnerable, if you get to country. and so should be, in fact, that for example, they exposed to trafficking their 100 nearby because, you know, they, they have safety and india. you know, i'm saying back in there also has one of the boards, not this, which is protection program in the form of the national guard and no one has m j. now this program has huge potential for creating parameters in, in fact they have some kind of instruments within them as well. but somehow, you know, we've been trying to, you know, influence decisions as to how they can make the investment more time to 1000000000 . but they can create portability, ok,
11:47 am
all you can type in my stuff out there and be in for them and migrate are there was to display that covered by the social. so let me, let me ok. so let me, let me, let me bring. can bear into this, i want to read another comment from i did so i hope i'm saying that right? watching on youtube, it says that india is lying. it's all eyes they will not abide by their promises can be or i'm curious, let me reach who was saying there are millions and millions of people that this effects you have to take care of them. you have to get them to buy in for this to actually work. has that been part of the conversation? are people trustful of the promises to bodie in the government or making yeah, no, unfortunately the answer that question is no. and this is where my site you disagree with babble as well that you've seen in this government has seen the political will to me grand announcements, but they've all not always been followed, followed up. and india has met its commitments in the band of the bad as agreement,
11:48 am
but that's an exception. in almost all domestic policies, the performance of this government has not been something to write home about. so there is a political will to make grand announcements, but the follow up to mean speak. we'd have to wait and see how that happens. and that is very little talk about the how the transition and how people will be for netflix, for instance, that a for 1000000 people who are directly or indirectly employed in one sector. so who, how those people, if, if india has to move away from all a howard bliss people, vp avenue getting into the sector, bear ashley is that actually one of our viewers had that exact question? and you t very says, how will india when the or off of coal without hurting them? good. i think a good example of how to look at this is how, how india has dealt with the farmer protests which have been going on for the last one year. now essentially, the farmers are protesting because it is also a transition issue because they have to move away from growing vice,
11:49 am
which is water intensive due to climate change and due to other factors as well. not only climate change, but the government has just refused to engage with them, right? refused to provide any kind of assistance and then transition that they're supposed to me. so that is, it's instructive of how india is willing to deal with this problem so far. it's not, it's not done when alright via you are the economist on the panel. so actually want to play something from another economist talking about investing in renewables. let's go ahead and listen to few years of locked and find any time. and mr. moody on november 1st drama, got in debt and mission to med, seattle by 2070. i've been summit. it is indeed a part of the step trauma developing economies perspective that you said shoot fissions for to konami group. now this growth can be profitable and sustainable at the scene time, but just something which these targets can then show. however,
11:50 am
in doubt would meet tech transfer and more importantly, financial support in order to achieve these target. ok, financial support, that's obviously something that's like this is great. where's the money coming from? and by budge, india has said that the rest of the world needs to pony up about a trillion dollars to make this happen. the cobra go right ahead sir. yeah, i mean it's, and it's so important. first of all, the 3rd, i want to emphasize that this is no dual isn't common consultation. in fact, my colleagues on the panel are also, i do have some different opinion because this announcement has just been made. right? so what do we expect to happen? you know, post announcement. now in a year or 2, we will expect you to submit a more detailed kind of long term strategy. mitchell, have many of the plans that people are saying they're going to, it's missing on this new one. and then i'll spend is made who don't expect in the week of the plan is also going to put into a plan in preparation. and let's look for it,
11:51 am
it will be there. a very important part of the plan is definitely finance they. now, so the un process is important, but we must also know that it doesn't you in the process will be very small. this will deliver. the question is going to be a good finance and a financial and on not just about the big investment numbers that you see, a lot of the big investments will come from the indian banking sector. right. so we're talking about, well, that additional low cost finance that may be, let's hear norwegian pension fund that invest in so many places there. if i were to let important agenda, then they must be investing in emerging on me, which is where the growth is. ok, the renewable energy expected to grow and they don't need to just, you know, you're not talking more drugs about a yes more like low cost. final. got it. okay. my, my address he wants to get in here. he, you know, i would just want to, you know, i understand when you say that an announcement has been made and then a plan would be that would follow. i think it should be done that way. you know,
11:52 am
they should have been consultation. they should have been a plan made and then an announcement should have been made because then just this announcement was me. i talk that of the roadmap once even and yeah, yeah, you bought the industry for me, any kind of any company where this has happened actually see that i ended up getting what, let me say this, this government already has the ability to been done the research has been done and this is the complete what i'm trying to say. you know, see it, india is, you know, these commitment especially in i d intensity and have been made based on the success of our program and the lot so closely with industry on that. when the close back type, the wasn't down, there was a massive consultation with a industry that was made in the target for discussed with them only then the fact was i think was announced and there was and then there was also not commitment that a market it would be established. the 2nd time i came there was absolutely no
11:53 am
consultation with us, especially the new industry which we are giving you that absolutely no clue as to how they're going for you. how this. so the point is you can keep announcing baggy, but unless you think everybody on board discuss with them, because otherwise would be just your main target. it will not get you back. okay. if i have read to you to let, let my live respond to that. yeah. that's an interesting point. my 1st point is a little, a lot of the say the government, i mean we have been so bored in the government. so we have given all the numbers what it takes, in fact the paper is already opened open in terms of spectral respect and you see the looper and all that. it's not going to go, i'm going to that i normally made announcement. everybody cared about their on the way they could have done 2050. no, you know, you know, we are not shouldn't nestled the feasibility, you know, and yet they get the new big country you are weighed,
11:54 am
done once i do plan needs to be made in terms of the patient under the conditions. right? so the understanding of this, but whenever they're planning on it goes, consultation will happen. you must, you must know this and on the. busy you know, any concrete look at any country know, look at you, look good us, everybody has made marion fact. you with this, you know, to my, for look on this home in the us believe. hit that if the glimmer different get started. we won consolidation asking what should be getting there? julia, what do you think? yes, you will be an industry with a 3rd. there was a 3rd make 2100. 2300. next me deal about it. they the, the government, if it was taken war step and they said, all of the government will actually give these very strong point to signals. and then, okay, let me just let me know. let me give you a quick, quickly re to because i do want to, i do want to wrap up with can be, are, but go ahead though i completely disagree with that approach. you know, not, no program has succeeded unless you think all the state was on board. and i would
11:55 am
disagree that if civil society and industry would have been taken on board, they would have, you know, the fact i wrote them succeeded because in the 1st 2nd, because industrial. and so let me see and can i get your committee to be let me ask you ok, can there let me ask you something. i know you do you know that in the us i'm climate change is an extremely politicized issue. and the policy changes, depending on who the president is, just like president trump roll back a lot of promises that brock obama had made. how politicized is this issue in india? major modi's not going to be prime minister forever or these goals that will be carried forward. but so far it's not really a very political issue in india for, for most people, air pollution is a bigger issue than, than climate changes in terms of perception. so yeah, and that's, and that's not a major political issue, but it probably will become a major political issue as we see more and more impacts of the yard it almost
11:56 am
everyone in the country will be back to it. so it may become a major issue. so yeah, that is a major problem. but again, one of the things that i think we've missed discussing shield is also in which is related to what we have said about finance. that it is imperative that the developed countries delivered on finance at cop $26.00. they haven't delivered yet on their commitments on the battery agreement. and it's vital for countries developing countries including india, india find itself in a very complicated situation. it is all, it is a g 20 country. it also has the largest number of 4 people in the country in the world, and it takes energy to lift them out of poverty. exactly. so india, india has to grow in india as you can. i mean that up the per capita income in certain parts of india is lower than almost every part of the world. so india has to continue to grow. that is it's prime objective. we have to lift people out to
11:57 am
follow. if you have to ensure that nobody in yes would insecure, that should be that because the basics i'm not being met. so that is something that we have to meet 1st. and that is something that the world should not lose sight of and which is why it's crucial delivered on finance. yes. all right, i can, there were or bad at a time by you. i'll let you add to that if you'd like. but i think i completely agree with the commute and also your finances you to critical thinking. all of us are on the same page with that. also on the stakeholder, i think that come together with, with no disagreement, a dollar that the question is all about. how many stakeholders, what kind of stakeholder then for what purpose, right? for the moment the next step is actually getting projected 2nd. and that is the newly, with the rule off the most, the all listening for those come for all from all the sectors and all of what i don't think i should be. i mean, the, the equivalent tradition already have been even cleaner doodle. all general had to be the final word though. thank you. could be, or our law to re, to or what part lodge and divide charts of betty,
11:58 am
thank you at all. so much for talking about is really important. i'm topic will continue to follow a climate change. is it a very important issue we'll get to continue to be, and that's it for our show to day. thanks for your time on a 2nd. mm. mm. china is pursuing prosperity and influence on the global stage. when i, when ac investigates what we've mains for, one of its closest neighbors, taiwan on al jazeera, november on al jazeera by years after the history. he feel between fog rebels and the colombian government algebra examines white tensions and violence of rising. once again, emmy award winning for flies investigates the untold stories across the us, millions encompassed on boat in parliamentary elections under a new constitution. and more than a year after the loss of figured political crisis. in murphy, at personal,
