The INDC aims at promoting clean energy, especially renewable energy, enhancement of energy efficiency, development of less carbon intensive and resilient urban centres, promotion of waste to wealth, safe, smart and sustainable green transportation network, abatement of pollution and India’s efforts to enhance carbon sink through creation of forest and tree cover.

• Reduce Emission intensity of Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
• Increase the Share of Non Fossil Fuel Based Electricity
• Enhancing Carbon Sink (Forests)

Sir, Due to number of forests acts have created problems & s Eco-sensitive zones notifications around many Tiger Reserves & National Parks.have not been issued. Development in areas outside Protected area have been put on hold by forest Department. Roads, local housing, tourism, renewable energy projects Wind & Solar energy are permitted & encouraged in buffer & eco-sensitive zones but today are stopped by forest Department.

I have discovered method of humans farming in which all biodegradable material waste is used.Preparation of humas is simple and easy than compost.Very less space is required and it is best alternate of soil.In humas all types of flowers, vegeta- bled & plants can be grown there is no need of soil. This method I am using since eleven years. There is no need of chemical fertilizer, humas farming is more better than organic farming . This technology can make clean & green India

I think that if it would be made compulsory for every student of all the classes greater then 7th to plant a tree on a particular day selected by the school itself atleast once a year for which some internal assesment as a cocarricular activity should be given to the student then it would lead to the plantation of lot of trees every year.Also if a specialist from the forest department can join them then the students might learn new ideas and techniques for plantation

1. Promotion of clean fuel driven public transport and dedicated lane for car pool vehicles.2.The analysis between LST and NDVI proves that Delhi has a larger area under green cover, and hence, the Urban Heat Island effect is diminished. In Mumbai, the absence of tree cover along with other factors has led to increased.Strict implementation of Air Pollution Control Act on industrial units 3.Methane emission from paddy fields is can be reduced through hybrid less water intensive paddy crops

credit should be given to those states who increase their forest land. likewise some provision should be there to incourage individual to plant tree. my brother planted so many trees in my village,near my home but forest department serve him notice for doing so. such episods discourage citizens to make earth green.
