During a Youth 20 (Y20) talk on climate action, Erik Solheim, the Executive Director of the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), highlighted that India's heavy population makes it particularly vulnerable to climate change. He emphasized that the effects of climate change are noticeable worldwide, but India's unique nature and high population density contribute to its increased vulnerability compared to other regions. Solheim also pointed out that India is grappling with environmental challenges similar to those faced globally.
