India is one of the leaders in sustainable development and clean energy. With the Hon PM Narendra Modi-led government’s reform-oriented, environment-friendly policies, the country has time & again shown that sound environmental policies can pave the way to a sound economy.

At the UN Climate Change Conference COP26 in 2021, PM Shri Narendra Modi announced the ‘LiFE’, a mission to bring individual behavioural change at the forefront of the global climate action narrative. LIFE or Lifestyle for Environment along with the ‘Pro Planet People’ movement, aims to strengthen the efforts to overcome climate change.

LiFE will replace the prevailing 'use-and-throw’ thinking with an environmentally conscious lifestyle. The Mission is to create a global community of ‘Pro-Planet People’ (P3), who with their shared commitment will adopt and promote environmentally friendly lifestyles.

Individual Efforts Are Key to Climate Commitment

India's traditional knowledge strongly positions it to lead the narrative of addressing climate change. Like many other mass movements, LiFE aims to inspire climate action based on the mantra of ‘Sabka Sath, Sabka Vikas’.

MyGov invites you to share your ideas and suggestions on how to adapt to an environmentally conscious lifestyle.

1. Reduce
2. Reuse
3. Recycle
4. Renewable
5. Recover
6. Re-design
7. Re-manufacture

Few examples for the above:
Reduce - Electricity, Fuel Usage
Reuse - Old Clothes, Electronics, Building materials, furniture
Recycle - Plastic, newspapers, cartons, boxes
Renewable - Solar, Wind, Hydro, Tidal, Geothermal & Biomass
Recover - Forests, rivers, soil, mountains, wildlife
Redesign - Green buildings
Remanufacture - E-waste for new purposes

Our civilisational values have taught us the importance of living in harmony with nature. Today, let’s come together to protect our environment & take forward Mission LiFE - Lifestyle for Environment.

The Green life Capture it... Utilize it.... Solar energy, solar power derived from the sun through the use of solar panels, is just one of the newest initiatives the "Going Green" movement has presented to us, in an effort to build and maintain renewable and sustainable power sources. It is becoming cheaper to make electricity from solar energy and in many situations it is now competitive with energy from coal or oil. Solar cells can be used to generate electricity from sunlight.

SOLAR ENERGY ON HOUSE ROOF OR FREE LANDS OR FREE RIVERS ETC.IT SHOULD BE INSTALLED FREE TO EVERYONE AND THEY SHOULD GIVE TO GOVERNMENT THE FIXED UNITS OF ELETRICITY AND THE SAME TIME HELP THE TRAVELERS TO PURCHASE EV VEHICLE SO WE CAN REDUCE PURCHASING OIL FROM FOREIGN AND WE CAN REDUCE THE CARBON EMISSIONS THE INDUSTRIAL PEOPLE WILL GET ENERGY FROM RENEWAL ENERGY LIKE SOLAR ETC. SO PLAN FOR NEXT 100 YEARS SO WE CAN ACHIVE OUR GOALS IN FAST AND WE CAN SAVE FOR NEW GENERATION OR WE WILL END UP WITH NOTHING TO THEM

Cont'd---seasonal winds during dwg stage for passages,roof light & ventilation. Installation of roof solar panels, solar water heaters,roof & balcony gardens with proper leak proof arrangements. Roof wind turbines with small permanent magnet generator of low wattage with battery backup for LED lighting of common passages,parking lots, compound walls.This can be additional lighting power & reduction of EB supply. Roof ventilation of building central shaft. Providing adjustable vertical louvers for seasonal winds on building windows,balconies to improve ventilation inside buildings.Effluent treatment plant to save water with fool proof arrangements especially for flushing in wash rooms which is very high. Separate lines with color coding.This water with quality can be used for out door gardening or given back to corporations which inturn can use for public gardens or for fire safety. It's only my view & observation some concepts might have been already adopted.

R6 -- Re-design green buildings,homes.This is a very challenging subject for civil engineers. We have vasthu some believe & some have their own views. Our ancestors looking at stars,moon,sun & directions they created so many wonderful things. Take sun temple at Konark it was built with vasthu and you can see sunrise alignments even today. Does our civil engineering or structural engineering cover these subjects as a part in our education system with all scientific explanations how it was built for our young minds to understand the legacy of our ancestors. We look towards west for higher studies. Even they cannot analyze how our ancestors did it without modern science , equipments or gadgets. We are in tropical zone.In most of the places if we follow large windows for sunlight facing east hot sun will enter the premises. North light is ok. Do our engineers consider the alignment or directions on dwg board to utilize the nature's gift of light, seasonal winds during dwg cont'd ----

1.)Sir, when you travel abroad, you should bring different types of seeds and saplings from your respective country so that we can protect the nature. 2.)Apart from that, if we grow the trees of our respective country, when they come to our country, they will eat the fruits of their country, thus increasing the number of tourists will grow 3.)Thus the country will be united and the culture will be united and good relationship will be maintained between the countries 4.)This will increase our business and improve our economy 5.)May have good friendly relations with neighboring country

We need water to live. We drink water, wash our clothes, water the plants and use it for various purposes. Water is life. That's why it's precious and we have to conserve it for ourselves and future generation. There is a drastic change in climate and it has impacted the environment. Ranchi, which was hailed as a hill station has lost its charm, space and also climate in its concrete jungle. Had there been no law to acquire the land of tribal people, land mafias would have turned it into a green house. Still everything has changed drastically. It's extremely hot in summers and cold in winters.There is always scarcity of water in most pockets of the city. The rainfall has become sporadic. Rain water harvesting is the need of the water. Whether it is collected directly in pits , drained into the sand and soil or purified through solar panels, it has to be conserved. Every house should have rainwater harvesting system and the government has to be proactive in ensuring it.
