Experts said the developed world may find it tough to plug the gap after withdrawal of US from the Paris Agreement

- Puja Das & Rituraj Baruah

Donald Trump on Monday pulled the US out of the Paris Agreement on climate change—just as he did in 2016 during his first stint as president—citing Chinese carbon emissions.

The move is particularly worrying for developing countries in the UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change).

Countries need to set their action plans for the next round of nationally determined contributions (NDCs) to enable the world to restrict global temperatures to 1.5°C above the pre-industrial average.

The Paris Agreement, an international treaty on climate change that was signed in 2016, covers climate change mitigation, adaptation, and finance.

As many as 196 countries have signed up to it.

When little details capture reality

There is a quiet gravitas to the works on display across the two floors of Art Alive Gallery in Delhi. Each watercolour, be it landscape, portrait or self-study, features an interplay of light, shadow and colour.

The paintings are nearly photorealistic, conveying the feel of the environment, the personality of the subject and the essence of the landscape to the viewer.
