The ongoing debate about climate change should not be a contentious issue but rather an established historical fact. Climate change being a debate is largely due to corporate interests both in first as well as third world countries. The research paper focuses on the debate having a direct effect on the safety and sustainability of the third world countries. Scientifically, the third world countries are going to be the worst affected because the economic competition for growth boils down to this field. This detailed analysis seeks to understand the propaganda war that is going on between the “No-changers” and the “Pro-changers” with regard to climate change and how its interplay decides our future. In this debate, India occupies a chief position because the overall emphasis on or craze for economic growth has destabilized the environmental parameters of ecological system. However, one of the major emphasis would be to analyse the role that civil society can play with regard to climate change policy pressure in India. The analysis would be important to defunct the present context of this consumerist world in tune with the sustainable developmental goals embraced by the respective governments all over the world and how their impacts are limited.
