Sustainability, institutions and internationalization in emerging markets: role of sustainable innovation for sustainable world development I've come here personally as the leader of the world's largest economy and the second-largest emitter to say that the U.S. not only recognizes our role in creating this problem, we embrace our responsibility to do something about it -Mr.Barack Obama, President of the United States of America (2015 Paris Climate Conference of World Leaders).Developed countries should honor their commitment of mobilizing $100 billion each year before 2020 and provide stronger support to developing countries afterwards -Xi Jinping, Chinese President (2015 Paris Climate Conference of World Leaders).India aims to add 175 gigawatts of wind, solar and other non-fossil fuel capacity by 2022, and to have those sources make up 40% of the country's installed electric power capacity by 2030 -Narendra Modi, Indian President (2015 Paris Climate Conference of World Leaders).We are at the foot of a wall built from the sum of our egos, fears and resignation […].But this wall is not insurmountable -Francois Hollande, French President (2015 Paris Climate Conference of World Leaders).
