What is the News?<\/b><\/h5>\n

The Climate Change Performance Index 2023 has been released by Germanwatch, the New Climate Institute and the Climate Action Network.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the Climate Change Performance Index?<\/b><\/h5>\n

Climate Change Performance Index(CCPI) is an independent monitoring tool for tracking the climate protection performance of 59 countries and the European Union which together generate over 92% of global greenhouse gas emissions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Aim:<\/b> To enhance transparency in international climate politics and enable comparison of climate protection efforts and progress made by individual countries.<\/span><\/p>\n

Parameters: <\/b>CCPI assesses each country\u2019s performance in four categories: GHG Emissions (40% of the overall ranking), Renewable Energy (20%), Energy Use (20%) and Climate Policy (20%).<\/span><\/p>\n

What are the key findings of CCPI 2023?<\/b><\/h5>\n

India\u2019s Ranking<\/b>: India has been ranked 8th amongst a group of 59 countries and the European Union. It has risen two spots since last year.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 Parameter-wise, India has earned a high rating in the GHG Emissions and Energy Use categories with a medium for Climate Policy and Renewable Energy.<\/span><\/p>\n

Observations made on India<\/b>: India had increased its climate targets in the NDC (nationally determined contributions) and also announced a net zero target for 2070.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 However, India’s climate actions were still not consistent with the 1.5 degree Celsius goal. For instance, India has plans to increase its oil and gas production by over 5% by 2030. This is incompatible with the 1.5-degree Celsius target.<\/span><\/p>\n

Globally<\/b>: Denmark and Sweden have been assessed to be the top performers this year as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 China has been ranked 51st. It has dropped 13 places mainly because of the country\u2019s continued reliance on coal and lack of clarity on long-term climate policies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 The United States has been ranked 52nd. It has risen three ranks because of the recent climate measures announced by the US administration.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
