India's Climate Change Policy and Trade Concerns: Issues, Barriers and Solutions

Fighting climate change addresses the ability of economies in developing countries to cut the emission of greenhouse gases in industrial production. The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and Kyoto Protocol response to global warming demand to apply this aim through voluntary emission reduction targets.

In case of India, its climate change policy is in initial stages. India being a non-Annexe I nation, its linkages between trade and global warming are not defined in the existed or proposed policy. Its policies concentrates on the low per capita greenhouse gas emissions. Besides industrial activities, factors like deforestation are also responsible for climate change.
