The agreements to progress US-India trade ties

Secretary of State John Kerry suggested expanding the US-India trade ties at the international investment conference on Sunday. It is because India can promote their development and deal with their poverty problem, and both the United States and India can fight against the climate change problem more by expanding their trade ties. Although their commerce and investments have been improving lately, there are still some problems like restrictive Indian law, regulations and apprehension about intellectual property rights and protection.

According to US officials the article says they are now making effort on agreements such as a solar energy power or decreasing of carbon dioxide emissions. President Obama might sign these agreements on 26^th January.

Now India has one of the largest populations in the world and their movement can influence the entire world. It means if the United States and India effect these agreements, not only poverty problems in India but also climate change problems could make great progress. According to the data from the Japan Center for Climate Change Actions (http://www.jccca.org/faq/faq01_09.html), the United States was the second highest carbon dioxide consumer and India was the fourth all over the world. So there is no doubt of great progress by these agreements. I hope a lot of countries deal with climate change problems like this case because we, all people live on the earth and we should be responsible for environment preservation.
