World pinning hope on India's leadership to resolve climate crisis, says Commonwealth Secretary-General Patricia Scotland

"What I am hoping for is that India will have the courage to own her position and to lead, and she can. The genius that is coming out of India, along with the other Commonwealth countries, could enable us to solve this problem," Commonwealth Secretary-General Patricia Scotland said. She emphasised that the world needs a "just transition", which means transitioning from fossil fuels to renewables in a fair and equitable way.
