potential of the future generations to do the same.

• Management of the global economy
• Securing a sustainable future
• Ensuring long-term growth

NATIONAL ACTION PLAN ON CLIMATE CHANGE (NAPCC)
The National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC) is a
comprehensive framework for addressing climate change in
India.
• The plan includes eight missions, such as the National
Solar Mission, aimed at promoting renewable energy,
energy efficiency, and sustainable urban development.
• The Indian government has set ambitious targets for
renewable energy, 450 GW of capacity by 2030.
• NATIONAL MISSION FOR SUSTAinable Agriculture:
This mission seeks to promote
⚬ sustainable agricultural practices,
⚬ improve water-use efficiency,
⚬ reduce the environmental impact of farming.
⚬ BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION
National Voluntary Guidelines on Social, Environmental, and Economic
Responsibilities of Business (NVGs):
⚬ The National Voluntary Guidelines provide a framework for
businesses to integrate social, environmental, and economic
responsibilities into their practices.
• In 2012, the SEBI formulated the Business Responsibility Reports (BRR)
which mandated top 100 listed entities (which was extended to top 500
listed entities in 2015) by market capitalization to file BRR as part of their
annual report.
• In 2021, SEBI replaced the existing BRR reporting requirement with a more
comprehensive integrated mechanism, the Business Responsibility and
Sustainability Report (BRSR).It will be mandatorily applicable to the top
1,000 listed entities (by market capitalization) from FY 2022-23 onwards.
• The BRSR seeks disclosures from listed entities on their performance
against the nine principles of the ‘National Guidelines on Responsible
Business Conduct’ (NGBRCs).
CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (CSR)
The Companies Act, of 2013, introduced mandatory CSR
spending for companies meeting specific criteria,
• such as having a net worth of ₹ 500 crore or more, turnover
of ₹ 1000 crore or more, or a net profit of ₹ 5 crore or more.
• Companies meeting these criteria are required to spend at
least 2% of their average net profits of the preceding three
financial years on CSR activities.
The CSR mandate has encouraged companies to invest in social
and environmental initiatives, such as education, healthcare,
sanitation, and environmental sustainability.
• Emphasized the significance of the care economy and its potential to
create 300 million additional jobs, with 80% of them being led by women.
• Care economy “consists of activities and relations involved in meeting the
physical, psychological and emotional needs of adults and children, old
and young, frail and able-bodied. It encompasses a range of sectors such
as education, health, and social work domestic works among others.
• The Women Entrepreneurship Platform (WEP) is a first of its kind, unified
access portal which brings together women from different parts of India
to build a nurturing ecosystem that enables them to realize their
entrepreneurial aspirations.
SMART CITIES MISSION:
The Smart Cities Mission, launched in 2015, aims to
• crEATE SUSTAINABLE AND CITIZEN-FRIENDLY URBAN AREAS.
• THE MISSION FOCUSES ON PROMOTING EFFICIENT ENERGY USE, GREEN
SPACES, AND INTEGRATED PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION.
Green Bonds:
• The Securities and Exchange Board of
India (SEBI) has introduced guidelines for
the issuance and listing of green bonds.
• Green bonds are used to finance projects
with environmental benefits, such as
renewable energy, energy efficiency, and
sustainable transportation.
INDIA’S SDG PERFORMANCE :
HAS BEEN ‘ON-TARGET’ TO MEETING 14
OF THE 33 SDGS, INCLUDING
INDICATORS FOR NEONATAL AND
UNDER-FIVE MORTALITY, FULL
VACCINATION, IMPROVED SANITATION
AND ELECTRICITY ACCESS, AND THEY
HAVE SUBSTANTIALLY IMPROVED IN
THE LAST FIVE YEARS.
GRAPHS GIVE A BRIEF SNAPSHOT OF
INDIA’S SDG JOURNEY BETWEEN 2000-
2020 PRESENTS MORE THAN A MIXED
PICTURE. THERE APPEARS TO BE A
PATTERN — INDIA HAS FOCUSED FAR
MORE ON ECONOMIC PROSPERITY THAN
OTHER OBJECTIVES.
FOREST INITIATIVES:

PERCENT BY 2030 FROM 2005 LEVEL; AND ACHIEVING ABOUT 40 PERCENT CUMULATIVE
ELECTRIC POWER INSTALLED CAPACITY FROM NON -FOSSIL FUEL-BASED ENERGY, BOTH THESE
GOALS HAVE BEEN ACHIEVED WELL AHEAD OF TIME.
INITIATIVES
