About "Reducing Carbon Footprint in India" topic:
Reduction of carbon emissions from our
current energy system is arguably the biggest
challenge that we face
in managing climate change.
Methods to
reduce the climate risk from
carbon-based energy will dominate energy system
development and
deployment for the next several decades.
Lets discuss here the
various aspects related to Reducing Carbon Footprint in India...

While Global Warming might be real it might not be necessarily `man made`.Searching with the keywords `global warming hoax` on Google or Youtube gives a different and fuller picture it seems.

Already some of the IT Parks, Commercial mall received the CER approval 2-3 years back. Till today none of the SEZ have not apply for CDM but they plan in the correct manner with the business unsual, definately they will get it.

The swift response to a similar announcement by the Chinese, is meant to save the country from being seen as the deal breaker in the coming green gabfest at Copenhagen over climate change. The battle for scoring PR points at the climate change talks has been joined in right earnest. On Friday, India dramtically announced that it could consider voluntarily reducing its carbon intensity by 20-25% on a purely domestic level. This represents a big leap on the measures announced so far by the government to cut emissions, and will extend to the entire economy rather than be restricted to specific sectors as is the case now. Environment minister Jairam Ramesh, in Beijing for a meeting of key emerg...

The D.light Rural Lighting Project involves the introduction of solar lighting systems to rural Indian households. The solar lighting systems consist of one LED (Light Emitting Diode) lamp with a rechargeable battery and one photo voltaic module. LED lamps use a light emitting diode which is a semiconductor diode that emits light when an electrical current is applied. LEDs are ideal for rural lighting purposes due to their efficiency, long life time, ruggedness and low maintenance costs associated.1 Photovoltaic (PV) modules consist of solar cells which can convert sunlight directly into electricity. PV modules are very useful to power electric devices like the lamps for this Project in r...

The Copenhagen summit is the world's last chance to save the planet from 'catastrophic' global warming, according to a major study led by Lord Stern of Brentford, the country's leading authority on climate change. Without an international agreement to limit global warming, temperatures are likely to rise by 9F (5C) by the end of the century - triggering mass migration, warfare and world hunger, according to the report. But Lord Stern, who produced the report together with the London School of Economics and other leading academics, said it was still possible for the world to keep the temperature rise below 3.6F (2C) - but only if world leaders agree to cut global emissions at next week's UN ...

In today's news, I came across this article that scientists at Sandia National Labs who were seeking a means to create cheap and abundant hydrogen to power a hydrogen economy, realized they could use the same technology to "reverse-combust" CO2 back into fuel. They still have to improve the efficiency of the system, but they recently demonstrated a working prototype of their "Sunshine to Petrol" converting waste CO2 to carbon monoxide, and then syngas, consuming nothing but solar energy. The device, boasting the simple title Counter-Rotating-Ring Receiver Reactor Recuperator (CR5) sets off a thermo-chemical reaction by exposing an iron-rich composite to concentrated solar heat. The composite sheds an oxygen molecule when heated and gets one back as it cools, and therein lies the fuel. The cylindrical metal CR5 is divided into hot and cold chambers. Solar energy heats the hot chamber to a scorching 2,700 degrees, which forces the iron oxide composite to lose oxygen atoms. The...

Integrity of any political party and its worthiness is judged from the way they conduct themselves in the Parliament and make themselves worthy to the people who elected them. Democracy is strangled when elected representatives, ignore the needs and aspirations of the people whom they represent. Democracy is strangled, when the political parties stoop down to use the communal feeling of one group against other to come to power and compelled to oppress other communities to appease its supporters. Democracy is strangled, when ‘Playing dirty Politics’ become the main business and theme of the Government and Political parties that support and oppose the government. "The Bitter Pills for India Reprieve" I wrote this in this community in toosteps.com few years back. The article is available in the following link in www.wordpress.com http://wp.me/p1ZsI2-5I
