An Inspirational Evening

7-10 PM | 27 SEPTEMBER 2023 | CONSTITUTIONAL CLUB OF INDIA

With rampant climate change we are witnessing the repercussions of delay in our Climate Policies or Climate Funding. Each day is important as is each degree rise in earth’s temperature & every centimeter of rise in ocean water/ regional rivers. This is a last call for leaders to assemble and demand from Politicians of South Asia for a timely response to these threats.

Today the biggest threat to world peace is South Asia; SDG 13, Slow Climate Action, SDG 16 Absence of Peace, Justice & Strong Institutions and SDG 7 Little or No access to Affordable Clean Energy.

Dear South Asians, charity begins at home – On this World Peace Day, lets quickly get our house in order.

What is needed to accelerate the hydrogen economy and replace oil and gas?

H2 Accelerator Launch

How to overcome the financing challenge – Acceleration of funding and grant approvals

Comparative Analysis | Climate Change Impact – South Asia vs the World

Under a baseline scenario based on current, ongoing policies and demographic trends, the graph below sourced from World Bank / IMF, clearly flags danger of South Asia getting wiped and further endangered to poverty, displacement and conflict due to climate crisis. Hence it is imperative to take action now on behalf of South Asia and to mobilize world leaders.
