Climate Change & Environment > Overview

Local and global environmental issues, especially  climate change, loom large with increasing risks.  As the way forward, IRADe has adopted a multidisciplinary approach and carries out national projects for both climate mitigation and adaptation  in the country.  In climate change, IRADe intensively covers climate mitigation, adaptation and negotiations. Further, IRADe provides inputs using the activity  analysis model in the area of low carbon pathways  until 2030 and 2050 for Climate Policies in India. 

As a member of NATCOM institutions and Indian  Network on Climate Change Assessment (INCCA), IRADe assists in country reports and provides  inputs on negotiating positions, arguments and  policy suggestions to ensure equity principles.  IRADe’s environment project portfolios include environmental accounting and valuation for Goa and  Andhra Pradesh with a focus on tourism, waste  management and water pollution. Biodiversity and Ecosystem management for Marine National Parks are also addressed.
