.@IlaPatnaik: The next industrial revolution cannot be based on #fossil questions. The question is how can we meet the #SDG goals while shifting to a greener economic system.
.@AHuitfeldt: #Norway is a large producer of oil & gas; going forward, we will develop our #fossilfuel industry but we will invest the revenues from these sources to finance #renewableenergy.
.@MathiasCormann: We need a globally coordinated and coherent approach to financing the #greentransition; we need a massive scaling up of investment in #cleanenergy and we need to leverage both public and private sector investment.
.@MathiasCormann: There needs to be more consistency and integrity from the private sector in financing the #greentransition, with clear objectives on what investments are actually green. The whole gamut of investment opportunities needs to be tapped.
.@anuahsa: We are not treating the #climatecrisis as an emergency, the #pandemic showed us that resources can be brought to bear when the political will is focused on solving a crisis.
.@amitabhk87: There is no shortage of finance in the world, it is the lack of political will that hinders action, richer nations have to step up their efforts to solve this crisis.
.@amitabhk87: India has the size and scale to become a leader in green technologies. The developed countries have not lived up to their promise of #low-cost finance, despite this, #India has become a leader in the #energytransition.
.@AHuitfeldt: The #energytransition has a national security dimension. We need to head for a #renewable future that is based on local production of energy, this has to be a driver for increased actions for a rapid #greentransition.
.@MathiasCormann: There is an increase in #ESG investment, but different ESG investments are not comparable due to a lack of standards. Investors want the consistency to assess what are #green investments, therefore, standards must be implemented quickly.
.@MathiasCormann: There is a significant need for investment in #innovation and R&D and faster technology transfer from the developed world to the developing world.
.@amitabhk87: The growth of #renewables in India has been driven by the private sectors and new entrepreneurs. The top class entrepreneurial spirit in India will be a driving force in the #energytransition in India.
.@Chandrika0501: Agenda 2030 and everything that it entails is indispensable to the creation of a prosperous future. Yet, it is so endangered. How do we translate it into the central feature of our policy making?
Tony Blair: The rise of #India is a pointer that we are in a new era. India's position today is potentially more powerful than it's ever been. And India is expected to lead the Global South in a manner like never before.
.@Tharman_S: Two things must guide #climatefinance: Scale and urgency. We are way behind meeting our #climate targets and we need to get moving quickly even if it is in an imperfect way.
.@SunjoyJ: We live in a troubled neighbourhood. We do not choose our friends or allies. But we do not go into war over it. What leads #Russia into this protracted war on #NATO expansion?
