	Country Profile - India
		India believes that environmentally harmful processes should be stopped and that over-exploitation of non-renewable resources should be controlled, but the solution lies not in unilaterally banning trade, but rather in transferring technology and offering prices to developing countries for such commodities, which would not then necessitate their overexploitation or jeopardise their development priorities.
		India is of the view that countries should share the burden of abatement in a way that fairly reflects their contribution to the problems as well as their capabilities to help solve it.
		India acceded to the Vienna Convention in 1991, and to the Montreal Protocol in 1992.

		India is the world's greatest heritage site—a wonder of ancient temples, royal tombs and colonial mansions.

		India is "so crowded with people and monuments," she says, that it's hard to justify evicting families so that the historic buildings where they live can be properly preserved.
