UNEP Report: India Likely to Meet Climate Targets Amid Global Emissions Gap Warning
The United Nations Environment Programme's Emissions Gap Report 2026 highlights that while global greenhouse gas emissions plateaued in 2025, current policies still risk a 2.8°C temperature rise this century. India is among six G20 nations likely to meet its 2030 climate targets due to strong renewable energy efforts, despite its total emissions rising. The report urges urgent, substantial emission cuts worldwide to limit warming to 1.5°C, emphasizing that overshoot can be minimized with immediate action but current global commitments remain insufficient.
