Abstract	The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 articulates a holistic vision for Indian education, including fairness, diversity, and digital transformation. The policy primarily aims to enhance learning results, governance, and access, while also facilitating the alignment of education with broader sustainability and climate objectives. Digital platforms, integrated learning, and paperless governance systems advocated by NEP 2020 diminish dependence on resource-intensive methods and establish pathways aligned with the Net Zero vision. This study presents a conceptual and policy-oriented analysis of the potential contributions of NEP 2020 to the establishment of a sustainable education ecosystem. The study utilizes official policy papers, international literature, and sustainability frameworks instead of statistical or empirical information to elucidate the relationships between digital reforms in education and global climate pledges.
