The President also emphasized the need to launch a nationwide drive for increasing the forest cover in the country, shifting from fossil fuels to alternative means of energy and building delay-action and large dams to minimize the effects of climate change. Replying to a question, he showed his readiness to play a role in his personal capacity to defuse the current political polarization in the country.
