What Is COP28 and Why Is It Important for India?

As the final round of negotiations leading up to the 28th Conference of the Parties (COP 28) in the UAE intensifies, India is actively advocating for the establishment of a fund to address loss and damage in developing nations severely impacted by climate change. Recent events like the Himachal Pradesh Floods and Sikkim's glacial food disaster, attributed to global warming, underscore the urgency of India's stance. The concept of the loss and damage fund was agreed upon during negotiations at COP 27 in Egypt in 2022, with a focus on supporting nations vulnerable to the consequences of climate change.
