Carbon Tunnel Vision Dominates the Climate Crisis Narrative
Key Messages
The climate crisis is embedded in a breakdown of the larger socio-ecological system, wherein solving carbon will not necessarily solve the crises we are in.
The West has been pushing a carbon-obsessed mitigation narrative. The same hard push is not observed for solving the multitude of crises in the Global South, even in India.
While we admit that there are many frameworks and conventions to address non-emission issues, funding and commitment have failed to reflect the urgency to solve the problems.
