India's Outsized Coal Plans Would Wipe out Paris Climate Goals

Caption

UC Irvine and CoalSwarm found that India won't meet its climate goals if it builds nearly 400 new coal-fired power plants. A tracking tool at the CoalSwarm website allows you to find the location of coal plants around the world. The map of India shows plants in the planning, permitting, construction or operation phases.
