As host of this critical summit, the UK is demonstrating its leadership and determination to drive meaningful action towards addressing one of the most pressing issues of our time.

In summary, the UK government's allocation of Rs.400 million towards climate change initiatives underscores its unwavering commitment to environmental sustainability, renewable energy, and carbon reduction. Through strategic investment and innovative solutions, the UK aims to lead by example and inspire concerted global efforts to combat climate change and safeguard the planet for future generations.
