Hi, all. Here many said EV's are good for climate. I disagree. Because EV are still running on Coal. And Use of Li batteries (which also have a huge carbon footprint) are best used in hybrid systems for powering homes. Consider tata tiago EV. It has a 24 kWh battery pack and runs 180 km and the efficiency of EV charger is 90%. So 26.6 units of electricity are consumed for charging the battery.
=> 26.6 x 0.82 = 21.8 kg of Co2 2and 180 km/21.8 Kg of Co2 = 8.25 km/Kg Co2.
If you compare cng wagon r = 25 km/kg
25/2.7 = 9.25 km /Kg - So a wagonr is more efficient than an EV in terms of Co2 emissions.
2. Electricity: Presently in India Co2 emissions per unit of electricity is 0.82kg. Avg. house per month consumption is 300 units.
=>300 x 12 x 0.82 = 2,952 kg/year.
This can be reduced by installing a 3kw solar system. And the govt is giving a subsidy of up to 78000, So now you can install a 3 kW system in just 1 lakhs after subsidy.
3) AC gas is a greenhouse gas, If your AC gas leaks every year it is a big problem for global warming. Use R-290 gas AC and R-600a gas refrigerators.
R-22 AC can be run on R-290 Gas. Quantity of R-290 required only 40% of R22 gas required in that AC.
=> 26.6 x 0.82 = 21.8 kg of Co2 2and 180 km/21.8 Kg of Co2 = 8.25 km/Kg Co2.

Hi everyone,
Myself Yadhav, I would like to discuss about general topic of Global Warming.
Nowadays the biggest challenging issue that has risen across the world that is Global warming which needs a quick response in all directions increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has a heating impact on the environment's situation of increase in temperature on the earth's surface. The solution to avoid this is to plant trees and use electric vehicles instead of fuel vehicles and also we need to take a few steps towards water pollution etc. The high use of greenhouse gases, it will impact on environment so we need to come forward to take some responsibility and we have to do something against it and also we need to stop tree cutting as well otherwise it will impact whether overall my conclusion is we need to come forward and should take steps towards this.

Climate change is a very big problem in not only in India but the world. We are full trying to do solve this problem but we can't handle this situation we are blind to getting comfort and earning money so we don't take care of our natural resources burning carbon and now it's too hot in many regions because of climate. Trees are very less in our vicinity so how we would survive in next few decades this is very critical thing that should be take care.

Implementation of Climate Change Resolutions is intimidating because of a lot of shackles in the current energy usage system. A lot of emphasis is laid on Electric Vehicles, which is said to solve all the problems of climate change. But it hardly does any good in the current implementation of this system.
Most of the electricity needed to power these Electric vehicles is still produced from non-renewable sources of energy which in the first place accelerated the current pollution levels.
So, the first step in implementing these resolutions starts with solving the root cause i.e. producing clean sustainable sources of energy. Promising solutions include Solar energy, Wind Energy, Geothermal energy, and so on.

Climate change is the most critical problem in the World. Need Social awareness about Trees, oxygen, cleanness and planting trees in a large scale. We should avoid travelling of Two wheelers and four wheelers.
Instead of We can use the cycle, walk on foot. Everyone must follow this agenda.

Hello friends this is Ravinder.
Climate change is a serious problem. Not only in India but also in the world face this critical problem. Greenhouse gasses are responsible for it like CO2 no2. So the temperature is increasing day by day. Factories and vehicles are realizing harmful gasses. People are cutting trees and use petrol diesel in vehicles. It is not eco-friendly. According to my point of view, we should grow more and more trees use electric vehicles and solar pannel for electric energy.

Hi everybody,
Greetings of the day!
We are facing a lot of difficulties in the implementation of climate change summit resolutions, as many people unaware of these things or some people are aware of all this but they don't want do anything.
In India, day to day life we emit a lot of carbon and other greenhouse gases due to this we are facing huge problems like global warming and pollution, etc but still, we are using refrigerators, air conditioners, private vehicles, and plastics and conventional electricity a lot. In the upcoming future, climate change will be the most severe problem we will face much then. To avoid all this we have to use solar and wind energy. And also avoid the use of plastic use cloth bags.
We all know the use of solar energy and wind energy causes costs for the first time but I will save us or the earth from severe problems. And also use public transport or electric vehicles to save our climate.
Thank you.

Hello everybody,
We all know that rise in temperature due to an increase in CO2, CO, like greenhouse gases is the main reason behind climate change. If we only measure the carbon dioxide emission of each person we may get surprised this varies from men to men, as more electricity generated thermal power plant generates more percentage. 99% of the vehicle emits a huge amount of carbon dioxide. Also burning of waste also emits carbon dioxide. To avoid this we have to use solar and wind energy these are renewable forms of energy and electricity use can be reduced the burning of will not happen. As we know, India is the first country who started a ministry for promoting renewable energy sources.

There is difficulties in the introduction of resolutions because of the fact that each reform is performed at a cost. Be the cost to the industry who has to pay a premium to but environmental friendly machinery or to a normal human being who have to leave a free or less expensive plastic bags to the costly cloth or paper bags.
Due to the cost involved in the transition and the benefits achieved from it is in the long term people are not motivated to imply these changes effectively.
The other reason is the mindset that one person cannot change anything but it is our duty to do our bit.
No person wants a change in its life until it is for its own benefit.
Plus in the emerging economies like India where industrialisation is of paramount importance, it is really difficult to impose such environmental restriction which could further lead to losses to the company and inturn slowdown of the economy.
I think these are the reasons which made it difficult to impose environmental resolutions.

As we already discussed the rationale behind climate change is a rise in temperature due to the increase in carbon dioxide, CO, like greenhouse gases. If we are measuring the carbon footprint of each person we may get surprised. The carbon emission of each person per day varies. The main emission is due to the electricity use where thermal power plant generates more percentage. If we are consuming one unit of electricity, the equivalent amount of carbon is exhausted from thermal power plants. The next emission is mainly due to transportation. Still, 99% of vehicles are still depending on fossil fuel. The huge amount of carbon is emitted from vehicles as we can see if we are inroads. Next is due to waste. The improper disposal of waste causes a lot of problems on earth. Some people may burn waste and some people may throw it somewhere.
How can we reduce carbon emission and mitigate the discussed problems? First, take electricity. The emission from the electricity side can be reduced if we are using renewable energy forms. Especially Solar and Wind. Then there will not be any problem with burning coal. India is the first country who started a ministry for promoting renewable energy source, that is MNRE. India is working to meet the 100GW solar power target by 2020 as part of global climate change commitments like the Paris Agreement. Proper waste disposal is necessary for this condition. The bio-degradable and non-biodegradable waste have to be separated first. Biodegradable waste can disposed through biogas plants. In effect, it helps to reduce LPG use that is coal-based cooking gas. For transportation, we may adopt a share taxi scheme or promote the use of public transport. These are my views.
