probably going to wait until the next, new President.
At the @G7 Summit in Biarritz, I addressed the session on ‘Biodiversity, Oceans, Climate.’ Highlighted India’s large scale efforts towards eliminating single use plastic, conserving water, harnessing solar energy and, protecting flora and fauna for a sustainable future. pic.twitter.com/djS5ksgVEZ

President Donald Trump was notably missing from the meeting.
Asked about it during one of his news conferences, Trump appeared to suggest the climate talks were yet to happen.
French President Emmanuel Macron later said Trump only missed the climate session because it clashed with other bilateral meetings he had on Monday.
Macron confirms Trump never made it to climate session at G7. "He wasn’t in the room but his team was there," he says. He says it's no longer his goal to convince Trump to come back to the Paris accord.
