In a video message, French President Emmanuel Macron stated that France is looking forward to working with India in preparation for India’s G20 presidency next year.

France, the United Kingdom, Argentina, Georgia, Guyana, Madagascar, Mauritius, Estonia, Nepal, and the Maldives congratulated Prime Minister Narendra Modi on launching the Mission LiFE movement (Lifestyle for the Environment). According to the Prime Minister’s Office. Mission LiFe will be a global mass movement led by India to ensure individual and collective action to protect and preserve the environment.

I am in Buenos Aires, but I did not want to miss Prime Minister Modi’s event.

The world is living in extraordinary times, marked not only by a pandemic but also by profound inequality. The world is also in crisis due to the use and waste of nonrenewable resources. Which have unquestionably negative environmental consequences. It is also true that this concentration and the ongoing war have resulted in a global food security crisis that should pique the world’s attention.

The power of change is found in working together toward a common goal and involving everyone. India has been an active participant in World Clean Up Day.

France’s President, Emmanuel Macron

Namaste, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, colleagues, also friends. I wish I could be with you in Kevadia on this momentous occasion. When geopolitical tensions rive our world, we must choose cooperation over division… France looks forward to collaborating with India to make this initiative successful. Particularly in light of India’s G20 presidency next year.

Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili

Georgia welcomes and fully supports PM Modi’s timely global initiative to promote an environmentally conscious lifestyle based on mindful also deliberate use principles.

Maldives President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih

Prime Minister Modi’s Mission LiFE could not have arrived better. The negative consequences of the climate crisis hit us full force, becoming more severe the longer we do nothing. This ambitious project is a call to action. Let’s not stop there.
