प्रकृति के साथ तालमेल में भी ज़िंदगी जी जा सकती है… हरे-भरे खेतों के बीच खड़ा यह घर सिर्फ़ ईंट और छत नहीं, एक संदेश है।

India has set a target of 500 gigawatts of clean power capacity by 2030 to achieve a larger goal to attain net zero by 2070. On Global Wind Day on June 15, the coastal state of Gujarat was recognised by the Union government for its contribution towards this target.

Compared to last year, between October 1 and November 5, the incidents of farm fires have reduced by 47.8% in Punjab and 38.04% in Haryana. However, wind movement towards Delhi has resulted in the deterioration of air quality which is presently marked in the hazardous category.

The Himalayan nation is known to have over 6,000 rivers and 96 per cent of its electricity needs are met through hydroelectric power. But, with climate change, as temperatures rise, glaciers melt and rainfall patterns become erratic, it is important to adopt an energy mix that promotes solar power generation. And this can be achieved alongside Nepal’s hydropower projects.

Agro-photovoltaic projects are being offered as a solution to the growing resistance against solar energy projects that require large tracts of land and often lead to conflicts with the local communities. These projects allow traditional livelihoods, such as grazing, and generation of electricity, to co-exist on the same piece of land.

In forested hinterlands of Chhattisgarh, solar powered generators, which were pushed at a massive scale for nearly a decade, have fallen to disuse. Poor maintenance of solar units remains a huge problem. Maintenance technicians complain about irregular payments.

In order to discuss the key recommendations of the IPCC report, a virtual seminar was organised in which experts mentioned that coal-based power generation will no longer be feasible by 2030 as renewable sources will have to be exploited to meet the country's energy needs. More details here.

India Meteorological Department has issued an orange alert for the ‘extremely severe' cyclonic storm Biparjoy which is presently approaching the Gujarat coast. The storm is likely to make landfall between Pakistan’s commercial hub of Karachi and the Gujarat coast on June15.
