India is on track to achieve two of the three components of its Paris target having already reduced emissions intensity by 21% given its target to reduce emissions intensity of GDP by 33-35% by 2030. Second, with 38% of non-fossil fuel capacity (includes renewables, large hydro and nuclear), India is just 2% short of its 2030 target of 40% of installed non-fossil fuel electricity capacity. But on the third component, to achieve 2.5 to 3 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent in forest cover by 2030, much more work is needed, according to a paper by climate experts Anjali Jaiswal and Madhura Joshi.
