Javadekar, who also handles the Climate Change portfolio, said India (a developing country) should not be potrayed as a “villian” in the debate on climate change but should instead provide new dimensions to the discourse.

“The world has always provided a vocabulary (on climate change) and we have reacted. We will provide a new vocabulary to which the world will react and we will take the discourse to a new height because we bother about climate change.
