New Delhi,India: Scoring nine marks out of ten, usually fascinate an elementary student. Still, it seems pathetic, when a country nine cities out of total 10 in globe comes under the most polluted cities in the world.

The statement on Tuesday, Bank of America Securities stated that there are seven significant drivers for the change, including the impact to cut diesel intake, develop natural gas and renewable energy, stricter emission norms, cleaning up Ganga river and greater energy efficiency.

The report also added that Between 2015 and 2030, India could hit USD 401 billion in Capex towards a green future. India also gains 106 GW in energy profits by adopting renewals, and reduce C02 by 1.1 billion tonnes per annum, helping her exceed the 2015 Paris agreement.

India is among the worst polluted globally, across air/ water and noise pollution. It also pointed.

World Bank estimated that it dropped 8.5 per cent of GDP in 2013 to air pollution alone. "Common perception means that India isn't doing enough, but we see the 2015 Paris agreement as to the inflexion point, where India committed to cut the greenhouse gas emissions intensity of its GDP by 33-35 per cent up the 2005 levels on 2030.

And the process so far suggests India could exceed the target and may even step-up these points over time. This follows the country with large global economies, aiming to be carbon impartial by 2050 such the US, Japan, Britain, the EU and South Korea, and China by 2060," the report indicated. The third-largest emitter of CO2/ NOx and is home to nine of the ten most polluted cities globally, it noted.

The country is also the first/ fastest in curbing pollution with the pace of pollution control now being better than the global average in areas like the leap to Euro 6 emission norms from Euro 4 in three years as against 5-10 years that the EU, China, Hong Kong and Singapore took, the report said.
