Eco-anxiety and India’s young

It was December 21, 2012, and 14-year-old Shaarvari Shreenath was satisfied that the world was ending. The date was considered the tip of a 5,126-year-long cycle within the Mayan calendar, and the media was rife with hypotheses of cataclysms that might quickly ensue. “I keep in mind hugging my buddies, and saying to them, ‘If I don’t see you tomorrow, that is how I really feel about you’,” says…

[ad_1] GG News Bureau Pune, 23rd Dec. Infosys co-founder Narayana Murthy has raised alarm over the potential mass migration to urban hubs like Bengaluru, Pune, and Hyderabad, driven by the escalating impact of climate change. Speaking at an event in Pune on Friday, Murthy cautioned that rising temperatures and extreme weather could render rural areas uninhabitable within the next 20-25 years, forcing millions to relocate to already overburdened cities. “What is likely to happen is a mass migration from rural parts of states into habitable places like Bangalore, maybe Pune, maybe Hyderabad,” Murthy said during an award ceremony. He emphasized that urban centers like these are already grappling with issues such as pollution, traffic congestion, and inadequate infrastructure, making them increasingly difficult to live in. “These cities are heading toward becoming unlivable,” he warned. Urgency of Collaboration Murthy called for urgent collaboration among the corporate sector, political leaders, and bureaucrats to address climate challenges and mitigate the looming rural-to-urban migration crisis. “We in India, particularly the corporate sector, have to cooperate with politicians and bureaucrats to ensure that there is no mass migration,” he urged, as reported by The Economic Times. He stressed the critical need for proactive measures to prepare India’s urban infrastructure for potential migration and to address climate change at its roots. Without swift and coordinated efforts, the influx of migrants could exacerbate existing urban challenges, including shortages of housing, water, and transportation. Optimism Amid Challenges Despite his stark warnings, Murthy expressed optimism about India’s ability to tackle these issues. “I am optimistic that we will make progress by 2030,” he reassured, adding that with timely intervention, India could meet its climate targets and manage the migration crisis effectively. India’s rapid urbanization and burgeoning population have already stretched its cities to their limits. Climate change-induced migration could intensify these pressures, underlining the urgency of sustainable urban planning and climate action. As global temperatures continue to rise, Murthy’s call to action serves as a timely reminder for India to strengthen its resilience against climate change and prepare for its far-reaching consequences.   The post Narayana Murthy Warns: Climate Change Could Spark Mass Migration to Bengaluru, Pune appeared first on Global Governance News- Asia's First Bilingual News portal for Global News and Updates.

The Bajaj CNG Bike Affordable and Biodegradable Mobility Change

With the recent unveiling of the Freedom 125 CNG bike and other models, Bajaj Auto in its usual tradition has taken the lead in issues of sustainability in mobility. Having been regarded for offering cutting edge but realistic solutions, Bajaj is currently responding to two considerations, fuel costs and the environmental impact. This is a breakthrough for not only the environment and climate causing organizations, and the pocket of a commuter who is environmentally inclined.

What is the Bajaj CNG Bike?

One can buy fuel efficient bicycles, including the Freedom 125 CNG that combines fuel with functionality. These bikes use Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) as their source of fuel, affording the user a more affordable and renewable form of energy than petrol while at the same time providing the smoothness and freedom of a scooter.

Key Highlights of Bajaj CNG Bikes

1.Environmentally Friendly:

CNG is actually a clean fuel and it produces far less carbon dioxide and pollutants than petrol. The Freedom 125  bajaj cng bike should be respectful to the rider who wants to minimize their impact on the environment.

2.Lower Fuel Costs:

At the current global economies, where fuel prices are on the rise, the cost of CNG makes it fitting. This product is ideally suited for Door to Door services, Deliveries, Daily commuters as it provides a high mileage as compared to Petrol at almost a third of its cost at present indicating clearly that  bajaj freedom 125 cng bike is the future.

3.Dual-Fuel System:

Similar to other scooters in the bajaj cng bike series, this bike includes a necessary mechanism in the form of a switch between CNG and petrol. This assures the riders can easily manage fuel supply problems without feeling pressured.

4.Enhanced Performance:

Consequently, Bajaj makes it possible that CNG bikes like Freedom 125, meets all the characteristic features of Bajaj bikes, which are reliability, and durability.

Spotlight on Freedom 125 CNG Bike

The Freedom 125 CNG bike is likely to be the most used bike in the country as people from different parts of the city proceed to work and back. It has a powerful engine and light structure with fuel efficient options to cater the need for urban and semi-urban commuters.

Mileage: As we have seen expect best of mileage specially in CNG mode it is simply economical for longer runs.

Design: The mechanics of the bike remain as muscular and aerodynamic as to provide comfort and establish an aesthetic appeal.

Practicality: Also developed for student, working classes, and delivery riders, the Freedom 125 saves the day when you have many kilometers to cover.

Why the Freedom 125 CNG Bike Stands Out

The Freedom 125 CNG bike is not only a bike, but it is an idea, an invention, an effort to open the gateway to bring a new generation SAVE environment. With its emphasis on affordability, sustainability, and practicality, it appeals to a wide range of riders:

Frequent travellers and daily commuters on the hunt for cheap means of transportation.

Eco-minded cyclists who believe that they should endeavour to tread lightly on the earth.

Operations of Delivery Professionals that require a bike to travel long distances with efficiency.

Availability and Pricing

The Freedom 125 CNG bike and other Bajaj CNG models are likely to be introduced first in Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru because of their strong CNG ecosystem. The price has remained high and is expected to be highly competitive to allow more people to afford them.

Conclusion

The Freedom 125 CNG bike is a clear and classic example of how Bajaj Auto has riding into the future through innovation and environment friendliness. It means that by choosing the Bajaj CNG bike people will be able to experience real social benefits such as lower fuel consumption and thus lower costs, high mileage as well as clean environment as a result of using CNG.

Watch out for more details, and prepare yourself for the shift towards going green with Bajaj’s Freedom 125 CNG bike.

From the dawn of civilization, human beings were subjected to growth in every aspect. So did we. Do a quick calculation of 10 years back, were we as equipped with the technology as we are today? Not even close. Similarly, the establishment of the first Green Buildings took place in the year 1990.

The term “Green Building” (also referred to as “green construction” or “sustainable building”) describes a structure as well as the use of methods that are resource- and environmentally conscious throughout a building’s life cycle, from planning to design to construction to operation to maintenance to renovation to demolition.

Low consumption, high efficiency, economics, environmental protection, integration, and optimization are the main focus of green building technology. They are the resource- and environmentally-conscious constructions made to have as little negative influence as possible on both the natural world and human health. To lessen their impact on the environment, they are made to be energy-efficient, use sustainable materials, and utilize a variety of technologies. Green buildings frequently have the following attributes:-

Less Energy Consumption Energy efficiency is the most important reason for designing green buildings in India. In order to accomplish this, energy-efficient lighting, HVAC modules, and other appliances are used.

Conservation of Water With the installation of low-flow toilets and faucets, the water conversation is another important aspect of the green building. Water-efficient fixtures and other tools are utilized.

Sustainable Components Materials used in green buildings include bamboo, recycled steel, and reclaimed wood.

Air Quality (Indoor) The non-toxic paints and other materials used for indoor construction and decor makes the air quality indoor, fresher, restricting to emitting fewer pollutants.

Waste Minimization Due to incorporating sustainable and recyclable materials, the green buildings in India aim to incorporate this by conducting recycling programs.

Sustainable Power In order to generate power/electricity, solar panels, and other sustainable tools are used.

There are many benefits to green building, such as reducing energy and water costs, improving indoor air quality, and providing a healthier living environment. Furthermore, they can reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate climate change.

Top 10 Green Buildings in India

There are over 3,080 projects in India which have received green certification from IGBC. 10 of those projects are:-

Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, Hyderabad

Infinity Benchmark, Kolkata

Infosys, Hyderabad

CRISIL House, Mumbai

Indira Paryavaran Bhawan

Cisco Building, Bangalore

ITC Maurya Hotel, New Delhi

CII-Sohrabji Godrej Green Business Centre, Hyderabad

T-ZED Homes, Bengaluru

Raintree Hotel, Chennai

Green construction technology must be promoted and made more widely accessible. The appropriate actions should be taken by the government to increase public awareness of the value of green structures. Also, they ought to offer rewards to people who use eco-friendly technologies. We hope that this information has helped you understand what green buildings are and how they may help cut down on energy use and carbon footprints. Let’s hope for a greener future of the country and start investing in beneficial projects from today.

Building green buildings are becoming in the upcoming years will be more important to real estate developers, who will start to incorporate them into their plans. Using eco-friendly materials and using renewable resources to the fullest extent possible may become a necessity for builders in the future. May not be as popular today, but they will become the need of the hour.

The world’s upcoming largest Pharma City in Hyderabad has also aimed to focus on an eco-friendly, zero pollution emitting composition of research & development centers, townships, pharma universities, and manufacutring zones. Investing around this area will be proven to be the most fruitful form of investing in the upcoming years.

Bengaluru’s Urban Forests: A Closer Look at the City’s Green Lungs

Bengaluru, once known as the Garden City, is constantly evolving. While the city’s growth is undeniable, it’s crucial to preserve its green spaces. These “urban forests” – parks, lakes, and strategically planted trees – are the city’s lungs, providing a multitude of benefits for residents and the environment. Here at HM Constructions, we understand the importance of green spaces and incorporate sustainable practices into our projects. Let’s delve deeper into the vital role Bengaluru’s urban forests play.

The Benefits of Urban Forests:

Combating Climate Change: Trees absorb carbon dioxide, a major greenhouse gas, and release oxygen. Urban forests help mitigate the effects of climate change by improving air quality and regulating temperatures.

Enhancing Public Health: Studies show that spending time in nature reduces stress, improves mental well-being, and even boosts the immune system. Urban forests provide residents with much-needed respite from the hustle and bustle of city life.

Biodiversity Havens: Urban forests offer habitat for various birds, insects, and small animals. This biodiversity is essential for a healthy ecosystem and contributes to a more balanced urban environment.

Flood Control: Trees and vegetation absorb rainwater, reducing the risk of flooding during heavy monsoon seasons. Urban forests play a crucial role in maintaining Bengaluru’s water balance.

Increased Property Values: Studies consistently show that properties located near green spaces have higher values. Urban forests contribute to the overall aesthetics and livability of a city, making it a more desirable place to live.

Challenges and the Path Forward

Despite their importance, Bengaluru’s urban forests face challenges. Encroachment, pollution, and a lack of awareness regarding their significance threaten their existence. Here’s what we can do:

Protecting Existing Green Spaces: Strong regulations and community involvement are crucial to prevent encroachment on existing parks, lakes, and tree cover.

Promoting Urban Forestry: Planting new trees and incorporating green spaces into new developments are essential steps towards a greener city. HM Constructions, for instance, prioritises landscaping in our projects, incorporating native and low-maintenance plants that contribute to the city’s green cover.

Raising Awareness: Educating citizens about the benefits of urban forests is key to fostering a sense of responsibility and encouraging participation in conservation efforts.

Building a Sustainable Future

At HM Constructions, we are committed to building a more sustainable Bengaluru. We integrate green building practices into our projects, minimize our environmental footprint, and actively support initiatives that promote the conservation and expansion of Bengaluru’s urban forests. Projects like HM Tropical Tree boast over 80% green footprint and aim to enhance the quality of life of our residents! Together, we can ensure that Bengaluru continues to thrive as a city that is in harmony with nature. Let’s embrace the responsibility of protecting our green lungs and work towards a future where Bengaluru remains a city with a vibrant green heart.

What can you do to contribute? Plant a tree, volunteer for a clean-up drive in your local park, or simply spread awareness about the importance of Bengaluru’s urban forests. Every action, however small, can make a difference.

[ad_1] In a transformative effort to reshape India's agricultural landscape, a strong collaboration between The Art of Living Social Projects, Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), key Indian ministries, and NABARD is propelling a nationwide shift toward sustainable farming practices. This project focuses on advancing agroecological techniques in Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, and Assam, with a particular emphasis on elevating women in agriculture - a cause deeply aligned with The Art of Living Social Projects’ commitment to agricultural sustainability and women’s leadership in rural development.   A traditional start paves the way for an immersive journey   Encouraging Women Leaders in Agriculture A key element of the Agroecological Transformation Processes in India (SuATI) project is the training of women leaders in agriculture. Over 4,000 Krishi Sakhis (women farmers) have already been enabled with knowledge in natural farming, transforming not just their farming practices, but their roles as change agents in their communities. These women are fostering eco-friendly practices, inspiring local progress, and becoming pillars of positive change in rural India.   Intensive training in natural farming to revitalise rural economies   Expanding Reach: Training Cluster Coordinators To further amplify this impact, 140 Cluster Coordinators will receive specialised training to expand the adoption of agroecological practices through Women’s Self-Help Groups (SHGs). The Art of Living Social Projects’ holistic approach enhances this initiative by incorporating Sudarshan Kriya, a powerful breathing technique known for its benefits in stress management and emotional resilience. This unique combination of practical farming knowledge and emotional well-being ensures that the Krishi Sakhis are not only skilled in sustainable agriculture but also geared to lead, mentor, and inspire others in their communities.   Intensive Training for Cluster Coordinators The first batch of 40 Cluster Coordinators recently completed an intensive training session at The Art of Living International Center in Bengaluru. The organisation, renowned for its sustainability and climate action initiatives, provided these coordinators with the tools, knowledge, and inspiration needed to promote natural farming in rural areas. Equipped with essential skills and inspired to lead change, these supervisors are now ready to promote climate-resilient farming practices across the region. Collaborating closely with an empowering network of Krishi Sakhis, they are set to ignite a self-sustaining agricultural revolution contributing to rural resurgence.   Reshaping Rural Development through Women The SuATI project demonstrates the transformative power of women-led, localised initiatives in driving meaningful change in rural India. By uplifting women farmers, the project not only advances agroecology but also strengthens rural resilience and enhances food security. Through the collaboration of The Art of Living Social Projects, GIZ, and Karnataka-SRLM, a future is being paved where women will play a pivotal role in transforming India’s agricultural landscape, reshaping the very fabric of rural development. Armed with knowledge and leadership skills, Krishi Sakhis will transform agriculture from the ground up - creating a ripple effect that will resonate throughout their communities for generations to come.   About The Art of Living Social Projects The Art of Living, inspired by the vision of Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, is a global non-profit organisation dedicated to nurturing peace, well-being, and humanitarian service.   By promoting eco-friendly farming practices and providing essential training to rural communities, The Art of Living is addressing challenges of food security and environmental sustainability.
