New Delhi: The strides jointly made by India and the US in terms of climate change mitigation and energy transition will not only lead to a better planet but also create green jobs, said Jorgan Andrews, deputy chief of mission of the US embassy in New Delhi, on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

India says it is poised to create 30 million green jobs by 2050, marking a significant shift towards sustainability and environmental responsibility in the job market.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

In July, both countries renewed their commitments to a US-India Strategic Clean Energy Partnership (SCEP) to strengthen energy security, create opportunities for clean energy innovation, address climate change and create employment opportunities.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Andrews said that if left unresolved, climate change would have a significant impact on the collective prosperity of both the countries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“The impact on our collective prosperity, if we do not solve these climate change problems together, is profound. Together, I think we are doing some amazing things both at the government level and in private sector to reduce emissions to help India find a path for growth and development that does not overly exacerbate global climatic challenges and also, these changes would create the well-paying green jobs that I know we would all like to see,” Andrews said at the 21st Indo-US Economic Summit organized by the Indo-American Chamber of Commerce in New Delhi.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Observing the fast pace of growth in bilateral ties, he said that the strengthening and robust ties have provided “tremendous benefit” for people in both the countries.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Quad summit<\/h2>\n

The statement comes on the heels of bilateral talks between Prime Minister Narendra Modi US President Joe Biden last week in the US on the sidelines of the Quad summit.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Biden remarked that the partnership between the US and India is \u201cstronger, closer, and more dynamic than ever\u201d.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Both the leaders hailed a significant agreement to set up a new semiconductor fabrication plant in India, supported by the India Semiconductor Mission and a strategic partnership involving Bharat Semi, 3rdiTech, and the US Space Force.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Quad leaders also announced the Quad Cancer Moonshot, a partnership aimed at initially combating cervical cancer in the Indo-Pacific, with plans to address other types of cancer in the future.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Andrews said a India-US Commercial Dialogue and a CEO forum will take place next week in Washington with commerce and industry minister Piyush Goyal and the US secretary of commerce Gina Raimondo as co-chairs. \u201cThis is another one of these crucial links between government and industry that helps us build out,” he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
