 The pre-COP17 INECC consultation considered the vulnerability studies conducted in different eco-regions, and decided to work towards reclaiming the space of equity and sustainable development in climate change debate. Any centralized system that looks mainly at technology and science, will not solve the crisis, unless it is well directed to attaining the minimum development threshold for all. Thus the focus of the low carbon path must be on requirements of the marginalised. INECC partners itself on working on decentralised energy options, forest community oriented afforestation, while taking the voices of the marginalised towards policy choices, be it at the COP process or at the national & state action plan level.

a very serious turn for the worse, with its
consequences going beyond damage to the coast.
There appear to be other widespread
environmental disasters in the form of
displacement of human settlements due to drastic
temperature change and increase in sea-levels that
are plaguing our world. Such issues only highlight
the fact that those who have least contributed
to the problem are the biggest victims of these
adverse environmental consequences....
