Detailed explanation-1: -The Climate Change Performance Index 2023 report was released recently and India secured 8th position in the index which is 2 positions up from the last edition. Since no country was strong enough in all index categories to achieve an overall very high rating, thus the top three places i.e 1-3 are vacant.
Detailed explanation-2: -Denmark is the highest-ranked country in CCPI 2022, followed by Sweden and Norway at the fourth and fifth positions respectively.
Detailed explanation-3: -India rose two spots to rank eighth out of 63 countries in the Climate Change Performance Index 2023 (CCPI). In the Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Energy Use categories, the country was rated “high”.
Detailed explanation-4: -The latest report of CCPI, released at COP27 in November 2022, shows Denmark, Sweden, Chile and Morocco as the only four small countries that were ranked above India at fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh, respectively. The first, second and third ranks were not awarded to any country.
Detailed explanation-5: -In 2023, the CCPI did not evaluate the performance of Ukraine due to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. In the CCPI index for 2020, Sweden led the ranking, followed by Denmark and Morocco. The last three ranks were taken by the United States, Saudi Arabia and Taiwan.
