Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said that Climate change cannot be fought from conference tables, and it has to be fought from dinner tables in every home. “Climate change cannot be fought from conference tables alone.

PM Modi while delivering his remarks at Word Bank Programme on ‘Making it Personal: How Behavioral Change Can Tackle Climate Change’. said “An idea becomes a mass movement when it moves from “discussion tables to dinner tables” as he called for people’s participation and collective efforts in the fight against climate change. He also told a gathering of world leaders that when people become conscious that simple acts in their daily lives are powerful, there will be a very positive impact on the environment. People across the world hear a lot about climate change. Many of them feel a lot of anxiety because they do not know what they can do about it. They are constantly made to feel that only governments or global institutions have a role. If they learn that they can also contribute, their anxiety will turn into action,” as per news agencies.
PM Modi quoting the great Chanakya said, “Chanakya once said, ‘small drops of water when they come together, fill up a pot’, similarly knowledge, good deeds or wealth add up gradually… When millions make the right decisions for our planet, the impact is huge,”
The PM also appreciated the efforts made by the people of India, citing examples of behavior change. He said the people of India have done a lot in the last few years. There have even been attempts to improve the sex ratio in many parts of India. The PM said that it was the same people who ensured a massive cleanliness drive, making beaches or roads free of garbage. He said that the people of India have shown that they can do anything by stepping towards LED bulbs. This is saving more than 22 billion units of energy.
