<h1>India Urged to Advance Net-Zero Goal Amid Solar Success, Financial Barriers, and Misinformation Challenges</h1> India's renewable energy targets are ambitious, with a goal of 500 gigawatts by 2030, but Climate Group's CEO suggests advancing its net-zero target from 2070. The success of India's solar mission demonstrates that economic growth can occur without high carbon emissions. Despite solar energy's cost-effectiveness, its benefits haven't fully reached consumers. Financial barriers hinder global climate action, with inadequate funding from developed nations. Fossil fuel companies fund misinformation campaigns against climate policies. Effective communication is needed to link extreme weather to emissions, and financial models should better support climate solutions.
