Reducing greenhouse gas emissions in India

This report identifies areas of potential collaboration between the EU and India that could reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The EU-India Summit in November 2009 will be a challenging forum to tackle climate change issues, coming just weeks ahead of COP15 negotiations in Copenhagen. As a result, specific new initiatives on climate financing may be difficult to agree upon at the Summit. At the same time, there are opportunities for partnership on activities that assist India in meeting its domestic objectives that can simultaneously reduce GHG emissions. Well-designed collaborative activities can strengthen the EU-India partnership, and set the tone for more productive agreements in international climate negotiations.
