Climate Change Performance Index: India slips 13 ranks; figures at 23rd position

India has fallen 13 ranks to 23rd in the Climate Change Performance Index, marking its biggest decline. Despite strong renewable energy growth, a rising trend in GHG emissions and a lack of a coal phase-out plan contributed to the drop. Experts suggest reducing new coal plants and continuing renewable expansion for a better future ranking.
