A modest 10% reduction in energy consumption from wealthier urban households, which can be achieved from energy conservation and the adoption of efficient power sources, can reduce particulate pollution by 7.1 %, 8.4 %, and 6.2 % in Delhi, Coimbatore, and Rajkot respectively.

Like edible oils, India is also dependent on the import of chemical fertilisers which are vital for the country's food production. Natural gas is the primary component used in manufacturing these fertilisers and Russia which is waging a war in Ukraine is the biggest exporter of liquefied natural gas (LNG) which means the subsidised prices at which the Indian farmers buy these fertilisers will shoot Indian government's expenses.

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.

By acknowledging its disparate historical roles in climate change, India highlights the significance of climate finance. Lower-middle-income countries like India confront financial obstacles in their efforts to shift to a low-carbon economy.

Providing a green premium to farmers and exploring other incentive-based mechanisms will help bridge the gap between chemical and nature-based farming. Consumer perception increasingly favours chemical-free farming, and good marketing helps farmers get a better return on organic produce.

There has been a continuous rise in the prices of commodities in the last two months. The food price inflation rate in rural India has almost doubled in a year, and is higher than in urban India. Rural citizens have reduced the consumption of pulses, vegetables and milk. This is likely to have long-term health impacts, warn experts. A Gaon Connection report.

Under the Centre's KUSUM scheme, farmers are provided huge subsidy to adopt off-grid solar-powered agricultural pumps to meet the irrigation needs. But, in drought-hit parts of Vidarbha and Marathwada, about four months a year these solar pumps are of no use as water sources dry up. Experts call for reinventing the scheme

Deficient monsoon rainfall has affected millions of farmers across 65 districts in Uttar Pradesh. While they are demanding an official declaration of drought, farmers from at least 18 other districts in the state were hit by floods leading to further crop losses. The state government has announced a drought survey and also flood relief. But farmers say it is too little, too late.
