A global climate change pact to reduce greenhouse gases could boost economic growth and create10 million jobs worldwide by 2020, according to a study led by former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
The report, prepared by Blair and a London-based non profit organisation hopes that the deadlock in the global climate talks will be resolved which will help increase global
GDP by 0.8 per cent and give rise to 10 million jobs across the world by the year 2020.
Blair will present the report to UN Chief Ban Ki-moon ahead of the Climate Change Summit tomorrow here, which will be attended by about 100 world leaders, where India will be represented by external affairs minister S M Krishna and environment minister Jairam Ramesh.
World leaders are going to meet at United Nations and Group 20 meeting in Pittsburg to discuss ways to curb climate change without affecting economic growth. Debate on climate change is hotting up with final round to be held in December in Copenhagen before the Kyoto protocol is renewed in 2012.
"I think it is essential that we get an agreement at Copenhagen," Blair told reporters. He also said that "I think it is possible, and the purpose of the report is to show that in economic terms, certainly in the medium and long-term, it's hugely to our economic benefit to get a global agreement"
