If all of us become more responsible towards humanitarian most of the issues like global warming and green energy can be handled more successfully .e.g. 1) switch off the lights when you are not using it 2) Dont brush or shave in running water 3) Use to walk for nearby place rather than using vehicle 4) Try to hookup some more people for commuting to office having in same area 5) Use laptop instead of desktop and turnoff the monitor when you are not using it By doing good you dont only help in making the world more better place to live but also can expect a good saving at the end of the month. |

Plant Saplings as far as possible because it will improve the level of ecological improvement like any thing. First and formost thing from side is plant the trees @2nos or more per persons of your family.

If every individual stops wasting resources on his part, then the rate of increase in global warming will reduce automaticaly. - save electricity at home use as much as u need - use public transport or energy saving vehicles i.e. hihger millage per litter of petrol, battery operated vehicle so on and so forth...., dont use 3000cc engine vehicle to drive one person to office/school/market place... - do not waste other resources like food, stationary, clothing and all the consumable comodities. - learn to adjust and be a social animal. thanks

In most of the places in our country peoples are using 100watt or 60 watt electric bulb for lighting purpose and it is mostly used by the peoples under the poverty line. If we use 18watt CFL as per the requirement then somehow we will be able to reduce the rate of increase in global warming.If we save some energy then it will automatically reduce the generation of electrical energy.Most of our energy demands are fulfilled by thermal power plants. Somehow it will also help us to reduce the rate of increase in global warming. |

To fight with Global warming Awareness to be developed among good citizens of the country.
Government should enforce energy auditing to all industries at least once in three years, failing which their business shall be penalised even to the extent of disconnection of all facilities like Power connection,Water connection ,Drainage connection.
Government also enforce tree plantation by the project owner against each project to equalise carbon credit.
Although i want to support Be natural, but believe me i am the one who switch on the ac during summers......i think the first step to atleast slow the global warming is to stop deforestation....we have to tackle with the mafia involved in illegal cutting of trees.....although there are many states who have declared many forests area as green area in which any kind of tresspassing can cause legal trouble ( the only thing i dont know is if this is seriously implemented)....apart from it we should buy electronic products by looking at star rating ( subjected to Indian market only)....more the stars less the power consumption or greater effeciency. Then we should start walking.... yeah walking ( although i think i am being a hypocrite here) ..... we should not use cars for the distance which we can walk....in short what i think is if we save energy ( Which may be in any form) we can tackle the global warming.....

When airing our house, we should open the windows for only a few minutes. If we leave a small opening all day long, the energy needed to keep it warm inside during six cold months (10ºC or less outside temperature) would result in almost 1 ton of CO2 emissions. |

Laurie baker and associate architechts have done marvelous work in creating hollow walls that are thermo-insulated naturally and ideal for India. Yet there are not many takers simply because it requires better levels of coordination.

The main reason for global warming is extensive use of fossil fuels. There are some 6 types of gases that cause these major being co2, NOx, cfcs etc. Need for use of alternative energy sources like solar. Let me give an example. If all houses of a particular electrical feeder are having solar heaters then the amount of pressure on the grid reduces. The advantage is that it saves rs. 5000 on each house per anum. On the demand side we need to use led lighting, cfls. Power utilities also need to go ahead for variable tariff schedules and end the heavy subsidy regimes like free power, free lighting etc. On the supply side, use of biogas and biomass plants have to be used. new emerging concepts like solar tower needs to be adopted.

Rightly said.To emphasise more anybody planning to make house provide Budget for Solar Cells on roof or in terrace or in open yard if available.
Also make practice to carry out Energy Saving
1) We are constructing High rise buildings , why we are making Overhead Tank for water at the roof for a building of 30 plus to be used by ground floor dwellers causing wastage of power for pumping of water and creating unnecessary high pressure at lower floor water taps creating frequent failure of taps and inconvenient handling of water when tap opens.
2) Keeping roofs unexplored from solar energy which receives solar radiation i.e. use of solar cells, solar geyser, and solar oven to extract the waste energy and minimize fuel bill , reduction of electricity and gas demand.
3) Cook food exact to the requirement and to avoid surplus food , surplus food is required to be preserved in refrigerator and then again to be heated before consumption.. It will save electricity to a greater extent.
4) Use always Pressure Cooker at the time of cooking and take only measured amount of water. More water means more energy / fuel/ gas consumption.
5) Clean all light bulbs regularly to remove dust which reduces illumination and causes unnecessary loading of heat to the room air conditioning
6) Keeping the cooking burner always intact to cause efficient burning of fuel. Also mirror effect to be made in the bottom of burner so that heat radiated out in lower direction can be utilized to some extent.
7) Whenever Pressure cooker whistle blows ,.Just sim the heating , and keep the cooker out of heat and do not allow to whistle On every blow of the steam lot of energy get lost in the form of Latent Heat i.e. 530 cal/gm of steam vented over and above the temp. of the steam
8) Room light to be divided on two categories one for safety, in connection of personal movement ,by CFL lamp of lower watt , and using of table lamp for attending task at task point.
9) Using of white paint in the outside of the building/roof in such way ,which can help reflection of solar radiation and keep the room inside cool reducing A/C load.
10) Using glass panes of windows with reflection films or polarized glass to reduce radiated solar heat entering to the room through window glass pane
11) To keep the dwelling house doors and windows air tight to avoid any entry of outside hot/cold air to keep the room comfortable and thus reducing load of A/C .
12) Use of ceiling fan is cooling the ceiling , and radiating its own heat whatever it is generating. ,and also transferring heat of the ceiling to the floor.( Specially on the top floor where roof is exposed to Sun. Low watt table fan at the task place is important substitute.
13) TV stand by consumes energy. Hence it should be switched off when not in use.
14) Car needs continuous cleaning to avoid carrying of extra unwanted mass which ultimately reflects in car fuel.
15) Take car fuel exactly as required if possible daily ,that reduces extra carrying of load . Avoiding of putting luggage over the roof of the car , it creates wind age friction and reflects on mileage as well as draws attention of street rowdies from a distance to make a false target.
16) Air cleaner of automobile is an important component and it requires continuous attention Choking by dust causes suction pressure drop and increase the loading of engine. and reduce mileage
17) Running car at high speed keeping window glasses down , causes more consumption of fuel due to parachute effect .
It is not difficult to practice the same.If liked please tell your friends.

We need to learn living with nature and avoiding mechanical things as much as possible. CFC producing factories, Chemical industries, Automobiles, Coolers and different type of products should be banned. Renewable source should be used as much as possible. This is the only way to stop Global warming. |

Use Car only when most urgent, try to avoid car travelling by & for only one person. Use more Public transport Many Options are avilable like Train, Bus, Auto, Taxi (of many type), *Minimum usage of Horn only when reuired necessary. * Should banned for Hording Lights at Evening/Night. * Govt. should allow & permit, encourage & give subsidy for SOLAR ENERGY to people specially in metro cities. * Must ban Plastic bags, strict action against default manufacturers need to be taken. * Switch off electrical things when not in use like TV, VCD/DVD player. Computer etc. * Strictly ban on import of low quality products. * Waste products to be recycled & process accordingly. ** New constructions must have grown minimum certain numbers of Trees arount it.**

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY |
Day by day the rate of increase in global warming increases. That's why we are facing a lot of problems day by day just like its not raining properly in rainy season and increase in atmospheric temperature in summer season. |
The most important is to create awareness in general peoples mind. We the peoples can save more energy by knowing that what is the power rating of our electrical aplliances that we are using in our own home and it will take what amount of energy to... |
