<p>It’s already slightly that way, for instance you can get tax rebates for buying solar panels.</p>
<p>If it was broken down into ‘per capita emissions’ though, this would be a very different story.

New Delhi, June 30 : India will put solar energy generation at the forefront of its battle against climate change, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh announced here Monday while releasing the national action plan on climate change. |
|
Emphasising the primacy of developing solar power, Manmohan Singh promised to “pool our scientific, technical and managerial talent, with sufficient financial resources, to develop solar energy as a source of abundant energy to power our economy and to transform the lives of our people”.
|
|
He felt success in developing solar energy “will change the face of India. It would also enable India to help change the destinies of people around the world. The plan intends to go beyond government to draw upon these assets”.
|
| “Every citizen of this planet must have an equal share of the planetary atmospheric space. Long-term convergence of per capita emissions is, therefore, the only equitable basis for a global compact on climate change. |
