India's climate strategy presents a unique opportunity to address economic resilience alongside public health. As the nation prepares its next Nationally Determined Contributions under the Paris Agreement, policymakers can frame climate action as integral to economic growth rather than a separate environmental concern. Climate risks now directly impact labor productivity, food security, and healthcare systems. Extreme heat threatens agricultural and manufacturing sectors while straining urban infrastructure. Air pollution imposes measurable economic costs across major cities. By designing climate policies that prioritize health protection and emission reduction simultaneously, India can demonstrate how environmental commitments strengthen rather than hinder economic development and long-term prosperity.
