Environmental pollution is a problem both in developed and developing countries.The environmental problems in India are growing rapidly. We all come across this news everyday: What will India’s environment look like in the 21st century? Since India is already one of the most polluted countries in the world, an important question is: Will India ever be able to control pollution and, if so, when?

Unless industries make environmetally sound decisons, this will not happen. Also, due to the traffic, excess of autos, cars etc, population expolsion, there will be more and more gases emiitted in the atmosphere. Unless there is proper planning,...

1 Create Infrastructure to manage 'factors' causing pollution
2 Cleanse the Soul
Shashi Kumar U  |  Added idea  "Invest in renewable sources of energy."  |  4 months ago
Invest in sources of energy like wind hydro power, and solar power. Create infrastructure through which these energy sources can be put to maximum use. Educate people and encourage people to use more of recycled and products that can be reused.
Satwinder Singh  |  Added idea  "Save Natural Resources"  |  5 months ago
If you can use a bi-cycle to go to Office.. you can make a change.. If you are ready to save GAS and electricity.. then Yes... If you can make use of Solar power plants for your cooking and never use A/C's.. then only the change can happen.. else...

sandeep krishnankutty  |  Argues in support of  "Yes"  |  2 years ago
As long as "we" people and the "Industrial" people follow rules and practices laid out to reduce pollution it is possible to control pollution.But as such there is a threat from the behavior and commitment of Indians towards environment.
Soma Gupta  |  Argues in support of  "No"  |  2 years ago
I don't think this idea will be viable as the energy efficient practices may some times lead to increase in cost. And before implementing the norms the government should find out the technical specifications as well as see whether adopting the...

1 Take a proper care and regular servicing of your vehicle
2 Car Pooling, Public Transport System, Eco-friendly vehicles
Ramita Gambhir  |  Added idea  "Use bicycle - Improve health"  |  1 year ago
We can use bicycles which are pollution-free. Its a way of exercise as well which we normally lack in our day-to-day routine. It will improve our health as well.
Reni sebastian  |  Added idea  "mass city transport system"  |  2 years ago
GOI introduces mass city transport system in major cities under JNNURM. It will help to reduce the number vehicles using inside the city. This will help to reduce traffic problems and surely emissions..
Srinivas Koduru  |  Supported idea  "Take a proper care and regular servicing of your vehicle"  |  2 years ago
Mridula, I agree with your point ... Periodic servicing of vehicle and proper regular maintenance will definitely help in reducing the pollution levels.

Yes, the idea of controlling pollution with raising population can be controlled in many ways. 1. car pooling 2. rapid mass transport system 3.good infrastructure. 4. use of solar energy

Today I read these three diferrent news story related to environment. 1. Desert geopark in China : What is a geopark ? Geopark is a place where rare geological landforms are preserved in an undisturbed state and where low impact recreation, scientific research, and educational activities can be pursued. The total planned area for this geopark is said to be 630.37 square km. It will be functioning as a museum as well as as scientific research center. 2. World Car free day : On September 22nd 200 cyclists celebrated World Car Free day by using cycles. This was an attempt to keep traffic jam and pollution at bay. Though the event went almost unnoticed and no similar effort was seen anywhere else. I wonder why do such news go unnoticed when certain channels are busy showing what do star eat and how thye go to the gym and what do they wear. I was surprised to see zero comments in the article where I read this news. I wonder what kind of news do people normally look for? 3. Britan will...
