In the main policy-making hub of the United Nations, regarding the ever-growing problem of Climate Change, India recognizes its issues with struggling to get to net zero emissions. India is the third largest contributor of greenhouse gasses and realizes the impacts of climate change on its people and is hoping to combat this through what the representative said were “accountability solutions and trying to allocate resources from different countries.” 

As the committee finally begins to pass its resolutions, we see plans such as focuses on sustainability through technological development, and deforestation. In particular, the Green Deal Action Plan which is using innovative technology such as floor tiles which as they are walked on create kinetic energy. They plan on obtaining funding from developed countries as well as NGOs. They are ambitious that they will be able to help the people in countries facing deforestation as their economies heavily depend on activities such as logging and others related to deforestation. 

Despite these ideas for combating climate change, overall the committee struggles with merging and coming up with solid solutions that would be able to pertain to everyone, especially both developed and underdeveloped countries.
