16th Sept 2024 New Delhi, Delhi, India Today marks a defining moment in the pursuit of a sustainable future as Tuhin A. Sinha, Author and National Spokesperson, BJP and Dr. Kaviraj Singh, Founder and Managing Director of Earthood, unveil the cover of their much-anticipated book, Climate Action India. This impactful and visionary work is a tribute to climate warriors worldwide who are relentlessly driving change toward a better tomorrow through sustainable development. Under the ambitious Net Zero Mission envisioned by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India has made a bold, forward-thinking pledge to lead the global fight against climate change. This mission is more than a target-it is a transformative vision that integrates economic growth with environmental responsibility. The book captures India’s rise as a determined champion for sustainable development, demonstrating how the nation is redefining growth while setting a powerful example for global action toward a more equitable and resilient future.
When Tuhin A. Sinha and Dr. Kaviraj Singh set out on this project, they were driven by a compelling two-fold mission. First, they sought to democratize the conversation on climate change, breaking down complex, climate-related issues to make them more accessible and relatable to the public. By demystifying these critical topics, the authors aim to ignite a wave of awareness, ensuring climate action becomes a shared and urgent priority across all walks of life. The second objective is to spotlight India’s readiness and the groundbreaking climate initiatives the country has undertaken in recent years. This book goes beyond just highlighting the threats of climate change and uncovers the immense opportunities it presents, particularly for a nation like India. Positioned as a global hub for renewable energy investments, India stands on the brink of transforming these challenges into a $10 trillion economy by 2035, driven by renewable energy and climate-focused industries. In recent years, India has seized this golden economic opportunity, cementing its role as a global leader in climate resilience, innovation, and sustainable development.
Dr. Kaviraj Singh, Founder and Managing Director of Earthood, stated, “India is at a critical juncture where climate action transcends being a mere challenge-it represents a tremendous opportunity for growth and leadership. Climate Action India captures this transformative journey, illustrating how our nation is leading the charge with bold policy reforms, innovative strategies, and groundbreaking initiatives to meet our ambitious climate goals. This book is a call to action, urging readers-whether from academia, institutions, civil society, corporations, entrepreneurs, or policymakers-to recognise and seize these opportunities, contributing to a sustainable future for all.”
Tuhin A. Sinha, National Spokesperson, BJP, emphasised, “With Climate Action India, our goal is to expand the horizons of climate discourse, making it accessible and relatable to every citizen. This book is poised to be a landmark in India’s quest for a sustainable, climate-resilient future. We firmly believe that awareness and action on climate issues should go beyond the domain of experts and policymakers-it must become a collective endeavor. This book aspires to spark a sense of shared responsibility and inspire a unified, grassroots-driven movement for a more sustainable, more resilient India.”
Climate Action India emerges as a transformative force, igniting a profound drive for environmental progress across all sectors. It fosters a deep passion for climate action and opens doors for innovation and technology-driven solutions to critical challenges. The book offers a strategic roadmap for developing bold, future-focused environmental strategies and serves as a compelling call to action. It advocates for practical steps such as transitioning to solar energy, adopting electric vehicles, and embracing sustainable practices. True climate action begins with individual choices that, when aggregated, catalyze a sweeping societal and national transformation.
The authors envision this book as a powerful catalyst for shifting climate mindsets and galvanizing active participation in India’s ambitious Net Zero Mission. Through its compelling insights, Climate Action India aims to inspire a transformative shift in thinking, spur decisive actions, and empower individuals to play a pivotal role in shaping a sustainable future.
