The E3-India team shared early results from new research aimed at evaluating the socio-economic outcomes of meeting India’s Nationally Determined Commitments under the Paris Accord. Initial results reveal overall positive impacts at the national level, but also underscore the adverse social impacts in coal-bearing states already identified as climate hotspots. The research forms a crucial foundation for the development of effective state level climate policy in India.
