India to Put ‘LiFE’ as a Theme of It's Pavilion at COP27

In a step intended to save the Earth from the disastrous consequences of climate change, India will launch on Thursday, Oct. 20, the global plan of action for its brainchild Mission 'Lifestyle for Environment' (LiFE), which is a list of ideas on lifestyle changes that can be taken up as climate-friendly behaviors.

The action plan will be jointly launched by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Ekta Nagar, Kevadiya in Gujarat.

India announced in this regard that it will put ‘LiFE’ as a theme of the country’s pavilion at the 27th session of the UN climate change conference (COP27), that will take place in Sharm El-Sheikh coastal city, Egypt from November 6-18.

The Mission LiFE booklets will be circulated among participating nations at the conference.

The step will bring into focus the unsustainable lifestyle of rich nations whose “mindless” consumption of resources is considered one of the key factors behind high cumulative historical emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) that led to global warming and climate change-linked extreme weather events affecting poor and developing countries the most.
