Union Environment Minister Bhupender Yadav urged developed countries to commit expertise and money and demonstrate how pollution from industrial sectors, beyond cement and steel, could be brought under control.
Developed countries should share technology and collaborate with developing countries and a fresh look must be taken at the global intellectual property rights regime, said Mr. Yadav who was chairing a session at the Stockholm Conference in Sweden on Wednesday.
India and Sweden were jointly hosting the ‘Industry Transition Dialogue’ in Stockholm as a part of an initiative, the Leadership for Industry Transition (LeadIT). The LeadIT initiative lays specific focus on hard-to-abate sectors that are key stakeholders in the global climate action and require specific interventions.
