Scientists today have a consensus that the tropics will suffer relatively more from the climate change. That said, the British have a vested interest in playing up losses in India because that way, India will be induced into agreeing to earlier CO2 cuts, thereby reducing the US rationale for not ratifying the Kyoto treaty. For the British, the condition is quite dire since the prediction is that climate change is expected to paradoxically lead to colder weather in Britain. India should really take a hard look at data before agreeing to sacrifice its fledging economic growth for the sins of the Western world where they have pumped so much CO2 over an entire century.
