Need Green Funding, Tech Transfer For Countries Like India: Danish Envoy

NEW DELHI: As part of the green strategic partnership signed with India last year, Denmark is collaborating across sectors such as wind energy, drinking water management and smart cities, says Denmark’s Ambassador to India Freddy Svane. Expressing concern over climate change on World Environment Day, he told StratNews Global Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale that all countries must deliver on commitments they made in Paris in 2018 as part of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. There’s need to have green financing in place to help countries like India to make the transition towards a greener future, he added.
