India will reject greenhouse gas emission targets


India will not sign up to targets to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions but will instead focus on
fighting poverty and boosting economic growth, the environment minister said on Tuesday.
India is one of the world's biggest emitters alongside China, the U.S. and Russia, and the second
most populous nation. But India's per capita emissions lag far behind rich countries and it feels
the developed world should take the lead on tackling climate change.
