Zenghelis, along with Justin Mundy, adviser to the British governmentโ€™s Foreign and Commonwealth Office expertsโ€™ team on Climate Change, have been touring India this week explaining the Stern Review, considered a comprehensive baseline study by environmentalists and policymakersย worldwide.

India and the US, which emits 24% of the worldโ€™s carbon dioxide, argue that the Stern Review capsย growth.

Britain supports 22 climate change projects in India and provides ยฃ1.8m to sustain this, along with another half a million pounds on a ministry of environment and forests climate changeย programme.

Mundy warned that developing countries could not just rely on foreign investment to mitigate climate change. Domestic investment must be equal, heย said.
