Opinion by Mathew Carr

Aug 19, 2025

India and Modi have contacts among the #BRICS nations, plenty of unused carbon budget to grant emissions wiggle room…India consumes less and values spiritually more ….India is showing how to transition to a less grabby world….India has the biggest population so most democratic authority ….India has one of the fastest growing economies….India has the most to lose from worsening heat.

India knows people, not rapacious corporations, are key to humanity’s progress.

(I’m not ignoring India’s recent patchy human rights record).

Remember Mr Modi you are in the “box seat” to bring world peace and climate action …protection of nature….

Good luck …your legacy can be the best of the best@NaMo4PM @themodistory @NamoApp @PMOIndia comment??https://t.co/wZF7eGhpjj

China just published its annual Report on Human Rights Violations in the United States.

The U.S. constantly tells China what to do and how to do it, so it's only fair China gives some advice back!
