Developing countries need more carbon space for economic growth, Union Minister R K Singh said on Friday as he emphasised that 77 per cent of the legacy carbon dioxide load has been caused directly by the developed countries.
India aims to reduce its carbon emission intensity by 45 per cent by 2030.
“Now, what is the present status on our planet? You have some countries that are developed and their average per capita income as per IMF figures is about USD 58,700 per year,” Singh said at the World Sustainable Development Summit 2024 in the national capital.
