Ravindra Sharma  |  Supported idea  "We shouldn't let heat escape from our house over a long period"  |  2 years ago
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.

In a provoking study, a scientist has argued that global warming might just be unstoppable. According to Tim Garrett, an associate professor of atmospheric sciences, University of Utah, rising carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions - the major cause of global warming - cannot be stabilised unless the world's economy collapses or society builds the equivalent of one new nuclear power plant each day. It looks unlikely that there will be any substantial near-term departure from recently observed acceleration in carbon dioxide emission rates. The study, which is based on the concept that physics can be used to characterize the evolution of civilization, indicates that energy conservation or efficiency ...

The contamination of air, water and land by industrial pollutants in the EU will face closer scrutiny from this week, following the launch of a new register from the European Commission and the European Environment Agency. The register will collate annual data for 91 substances and covers more than 24,000 facilities operating across 65 different industrial sectors. Under the rules of the register, any pollutants transferred offsite have to be reported on and tracked. 'The opening of this register will give citizens direct access to information on emissions from facilities across Europe and will help them to engage actively in decisions affecting the environment,' said environment commission...
