Sibal rules out global action plan on climate change

New Delhi, Nov 11 (PTI) India today ruled out a global action plan to tackle the challenge of climate change and strongly favoured initiatives tailored to suit local needs.
"You cannot have a global action plan on climate change. You can only have a global commitment," Science and Technology Minister Kapil Sibal, who has been representing the country at international fora on the issue, said here.

The issue of climate change has to be addressed at national, regional and local levels as each part has different sets of problems, he said at a conference on 'Climate Change: Business Sustainability and Society'.
