|
23.4.2018 |
General News |
Globally, there are approximately 1.4 billion people without access to electricity and 2.7 billion people who rely on solid fuel (wood, crop residue, dung and coal) for cooking. The use of these traditional cooking fuels creates several significant problems, including deforestation, with a resultant loss of biodiversity and the elimination of carbon sinks which could offset global warming. There are also an estimated 4 million attributed deaths annually due to the negative health effects associated with indoor air pollution. Approximately 30 percent of those who cooked with solid fuels (820 million people) resided in India alone.The use of solid cooking fuels creates several significant problems. In 2012, resultant indoor air pollution was the cause of more than 4.3 million premature deaths, more than 60 percent of which were women and children. In many parts of the world, women are responsible for the collection of firewood and are specifically impacted by this burden.There is ample . |

Pollution in cities deeply influenced by emissions in surrounding areas
|
21.4.2018 |
General News |
The focus in the fight against air pollution would be on implementation of city-specific action plans, the Environment Ministry today said, even as a consultation on a nationwide initiative zeroed in on the fact that pollution in cities was influenced by emissions from surrounding areas.
During the two-day stakeholder consultation on National Clean Air Programme (NCAP) which ended today, it was pointed out that there was a need for "multi-city, multi-sectoral and multi-stakeholder coordination".
In its presentation, the ministry emphasised that measures to address industrial pollution, vehicular pollution and road dust needed to be a part of city-specific plans being formulated with the help of the ministry and could not be integrated in the NCAP, which basically provided a broad roadmap to address the issue of air pollution.
The stakeholder consultation also provided an opportunity to interact with international experts from Europe, United States, China, Brazil, Japan and World Bank . |

Air pollution: DPCC asks PWD to prepare database of construction, demolition waste
|
15.4.2018 |
General News |
The Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC) has asked the Public Works Department (PWD) to prepare a proper database of construction and demolition waste generated from its sites and submit an annual report on the same.
In a directive issued earlier this month, the pollution controlling panel has also asked the PWD to ensure all construction and demolition waste generated from its sites are stored in such a manner that it does not create air pollution in the city.
According to the DPCC, open dumping of construction and demolition waste materials is one of the contributors of air pollution, particularly of PM 10 and PM 2.5 particles, in the national capital.
The move comes after a number of complaints were received in the DPCC regarding air pollution generated from dumping of construction and demolition waste materials from various sites belonging to all agencies.
In its written direction to the PWD, the DPCC has said the department would collect the construction and demolition waste . |
