justice taxes the right to levy taxes in the obligation to pay them both inherent in the sovereignty of nation states and their citizens. but what happens when the power of taxation is undermined? with won't pay check session takes $2.00 twin 1st on the w. ah, this is d w. news asia coming out today. it's a climate emergency. why isn't there more urgency dog on track to creating green or infrastructure? we take you under ground to deli solar powered metro, but is the rest of the nation on the same train when it comes to going great. and
3:31 pm
the constant battle against rising seas on central java cutting down mangrove forests leaps coastal communities vulnerable to the forces of nature and is forcing locals to rethink their lives. i want to live some place that isn't like they get that that in families moorland that's dry. hopefully someone that say from flood ah, i'm been fizzle and glad you could join us. india's infrastructure is going through a green transition. it's already billed some of the world's largest solar box. now solar panels adorned the tops of trains and stations as well as airports. looks like the government's fast tracking. it's pushed towards renewable energy. but india doesn't see itself becoming carbon neutral until 2070 way behind the world
3:32 pm
powers and international investors view the country is both risky and vulnerable, especially to climate change. that's why ill need to prove it screen credentials on more levels than one. this metro station in delhi is partially of running on solar power. now it's on track to become the world's 1st metro station to get olives. electricity needs from solar power managed they are. communication had up tele, metro has been working on this project for more than 5 years. now. he plans to build more solar power stations across the capital city tele macros. philosophy is very clear. we want to generate as my and non can my cell enter the about what the, what of us made by the grid we want to generate a lot of and i did lose a lot of the 60 year old is proud of how for india's 1st met real system
3:33 pm
has progress with that since its introduction to n p 2 years ago, everybody is ah, worried about the climate change is coming across. so we all want to be part of the, our evolution which will lower the carbon footprint and control all of this. i'm glad the dilemma, toys, blame very important part and all this in recent years, india has ramped up it's solar energy capacity and currently rags ford in the world in terms of solar power production. the country is no home to some of the largest solar power plants. india's energy demand will increase more than any other country or the next 2 decades to meet this demand. india has announced the ambitious target for 2030. that includes in starting $500.00 gigawatts of renewable energy and reducing a 1000000000 tons of carbon emission in the outskirts of daily solar power plant springing up across the city. overall margin who had one of those companies says that india is on its way to becoming the manufacturing half of the world. sola
3:34 pm
is the future. they're going to with technology bell changes. they're going to be technological advancements. and india is ad that point of saying where we can answer the world that we are head and the world can manufacture their panels in india as solar energy gains traction across the country. many households, the public offices are also turning to solar power for their daily consumption. if, if you can't take such they walk, who runs the solar panel installation company, not this is he can be a little keep up with the job orders. there demand in last 23 years has gone explanation. ah, every month you're getting more than $1000.00 inquiries. i never did navigating through the 4 orders that get executing in various parts of daily with around 300 sunny days a year. india has the potential to lead the world in solar electricity. and billy
3:35 pm
is also currently subsidizing schemes to help people in rural areas switched to solar power. that could be transformational for millions of indians, especially for its poorest of students. let's pick up on that last point with chandra bush on president and ceo of the international forum for environment sustainability and technology or i forest, he's in delhi. how can the poor benefit most from renewables considering climate change does hit them hardest. bo energy axis is a major issue in india, and if we can provide that energy to renewable sources, it is a co benefit up in it's in the sense that it is environment you sustainable. if it mitigates climate change, as well as provide electricity to who are to the most needed and also because their new bill is now cheaper. so they also get affordable electricity so bought from,
3:36 pm
from climate environment and energy access perspective. it is a cool benefit. why that has a gone so wrong in some cases, a decade on india's 1st solar parking good route has provided next to no jobs for locals or women. it's taken away, acres of grazing land, and residents are still waiting for clean drinking water, free electricity, and irrigation. but what good and electricity is government? no responsibility. i, it is not the responsibility of a solar power to do that. so if there is some problem in terms of providing social services that i think the responsibility should be put on the government, not on an energy company or as i would like and as a company to be much more responsible. but the example of sharon guy and the other side of one off of issues i believe that, you know, companies will be much more responsible there at regulations that are,
3:37 pm
that are coming in place as far as renewable energy is concerned. so these issues should not distract us from the need for india to install as much renewable energy as possible. otherwise, the option for india is to go fossil fuels for the oil has to decide it wants india to continue with fossil fuel. lot, it wants to pick up the smallest smallest shoes and you know, and obstruct the development of renewable energy potentially. i know if i just bought in, sorry, can, does india have the financial responsibility to transparency and buy ability when it comes to these projects to convince international investors that it's the place to invest? i believe india has a very robust financial system. and now at the share market in india, it's got a publicly listed company. you have to now disclose social and environmental performance as well. so we have, it is for the international capital to decide whether it wants to come to india or
3:38 pm
not. india as an opportunity both to solve the climate crisis, as well as an opportunity as a market. so i'm not so much bothered about the small issue that international market is raising on on these things. india is big enough, market is responsible, the country on these issues and we will be able to resolve why they have you said in your own words that india is classed as a vulnerable and risky investment i. i'm not sure that i have, i don't know from there. you have picked this up in a recent keynote address that you gave. and you mentioned that we need to move forward. it. we don't have to discuss and debate whether or not we need to go carbon neutral. we have to be carbon neutral. and in that sense, you had mentioned that there was a lot of hesitancy amongst international investors. although the money is they're wasting a huge global shift towards renewables listed. and as i
3:39 pm
said, india is a vast opportunity to solve climate. gracious india is a vast opportunity to provide energy access. india is a bust opportunity to reduce inequality in the world. now whether the world wants to use it as an opportunity or waltz wants to see that there's risk is something that the international capital has to think about. as far as a beep tank in india up the we think that is a sculpture improvement in every area as that is school for improvement across the world. and by me showed a you can see that a sion gas crisis has meant that the fossil fuel is not going away from the abrupt world as well. ok. so i don't think it's time to start thinking about small, small issues and, and, and put a question mark on investment under nubile. and as in india who are less, let's look at some of the dates. let's look ahead because the you aims to be carbon neutral by 2050 china. the world's biggest polluted 20. 60 india. 20. 70. how. how
3:40 pm
does that make you feel? oil? it is perfectly. all right. you should walk out of one util by 2030. if you wanted me to walk out, when you turn by 2050, you have his study con responsibility of admitting one 4th of global emissions. great. pakistan is under flux, not because pakistan is omitted because what developed board and we did for the past 100 years back. let's not forget history. we are not yet, we were not born born today, but we are likely the same effects today envoy absolute deed. therefore, therefore, if developed world is really concerned about climate change, it needs to will become net 0 as fast and as quickly as possible. so instead of cushioning, india 2070, i think it is important for you to question wendy. 50 of you, you europe. and i think that will get a starting point for this conversation. unfortunately,
3:41 pm
we have to leave the interview there, but definitely a good point that you bring up chan. rubashaw. thank you very much for being on t w. 's asia today. thank you. the united nation says climate catastrophes will up route 143000000 people across asia. over the next few decades . rising seas are already in on dating some coastal parts of indonesia. reforestation could help turn the tide. in this case we're storing mangrove forests . but that won't happen overnight and the tide is already high. c it's pointless, but cassini tries it anyway, sweeping the water out of her house in bull's uncle village in central java, by the tide keeps coming in the was a mouldy. and from time to time, the water rises to the level of her hips. if the tide is too high, the family is trapped inside for hours. cassim, his daughter has had enough. somebody new. so i
3:42 pm
sang, so i want to lived someplace that isn't like this, that be good dead. and then in again, the mother my with more land and that's dry. had a buy near to hopefully some of that safe from floods angel her grandfather, remember the times were cars and motorcycles spent driving at the main street were burned, the village was good. there was nothing like this, mike, yes, it was just dry land that it was lost, lots of vegetation. it became like this 10 years ago than been before a felony. the village has cut down mangrove forest said they're protecting the coastline. but this is not the only reason for the catastrophe. global warming and rising c levers are threatening the whole area. as you used to lift him under liquor, a village near by to day, she needs a boat to access our village. makes if structures lead to her former home a caea just came to pick up some of her personal belongings. yeah,
3:43 pm
of course i miss higher being. but what can i do that that, that it's not habitable anymore, that being what's up at the beginning. but at all, she had no other choice and to move to the next city. swapping a house for one bedroom, concrete apartment, but at least she has dry feet tia as if and i'll be sure to check out our other stories on d. w dot com slash asia, or on facebook and twitter. i'm been fizzle, and i'll see you same time. same place to mark of i i will interest the global economy our portfolio g w business beyond. here's a closer look at the project. our mission. to analyze the fight for market

dominance, get us to the head with d w business beyond a vibrant habitat ended glistening place of long in the mediterranean sea scene of almost scene of almost far and so far, abdul karim drift along with exploring the modern lifestyles and the editor ringing and he's ready to eat journey this week on d. w. ah, another blow to global energy supplies, the oil producing cartel opec plus is reducing output by $2000000.00 barrels a day. but markets take the cut and stride. we'll find out why also on the show,
3:45 pm
indian i t powerhouse we pro makes employees return to the office for at least 3 days during the week will take a closer look at in the us post. pandemic will work reality. and a u. s. ban on russia, seafood could have given us fishermen a stronger presence on their domestic market, but things turned out differently than they thought. chris kolber walked into the program. all prices have stabilized after spiking briefly on the news that opec all producing countries and their allies had agreed to slash their output over the coming months at a meeting in vienna. plus, which also was russia, decided to reduce production by $2000000.00 barrels per day. the move to support oil prices, which have fallen by 30 percent and 2 years for that. and joe biden says he's disappointed by the decision which he called short sighted right, i thought more about this with christopher haynes. he is an energy market and.
