Nation-wide study for Resource Efficiency and Climate Change in India
A study of the benefits to GHG emissions arising from improvements to material resource-use efficiency, in the Indian context, is extremely important.
Reasons:
1. ambition to make India a $5 trillion economy by 2025
2. pathway for India to inform the update of its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDC)
3. the broader context for India’s new resource efficiency policy (draft)
4. A six-month scoping study will be undertaken to refine and identify the components of the nationwide study.
