SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN INDIA

CURRENT SCENARIO
Sustainable Development was formally initiated for the
international community since the 1992 UN Conference on
Environment and Development (UNCED), which called upon
governments to develop strategies for sustainable development,
incorporating policy measures outlined in the Rio Declaration
and Agenda 21.

CURRENT SCENARIO
Sustainable Development was formally initiated for the
international community since the 1992 UN Conference on
Environment and Development (UNCED), which called upon
governments to develop strategies for sustainable development,
incorporating policy measures outlined in the Rio Declaration
and Agenda 21.

Governments wish to implement such strategies, but then
there are continuing battle between economic and
environmental concerns associated with the development.

GLOBAL PROTOCOL

Not just the Rural but also the Urban Development
which spread the best practices as success stories.

Rapid growth has had an impact on everything around
including air and water. Mitigating and repair technologies are
plenty and are differently aligned in different areas like carbon
capture and storage systems, household water purification
devices, more efficient irrigation methods and processes to
minimize waste and pollution.

STRATEGY FOR CHANGE – INDIAN AGENDA

Low-Carbon Models
Adaptation to Climate Change as a Social Cause
Economically Profitable Approach
Technology Transfer

DEVELOP TRAINING COURSES

Develop curriculums to train executing
agencies. And provide training materials to educate
local regulatory government officials.

Develop programs to build the capacity of
local communities to be able to read and monitor the
conditions through simple indicators, to enable them
to implement the models and approaches identified
by best practices.

DEVELOP TRAINING COURSES

KEY SECTORS TO BE WEAVED IN ARE
AGRICULTURE , POWER & ENERGY AND WATER

SECTORAL BARRIERS

With the absence of legal framework, it is difficult to bring processes
to action, technologies are either not developed at all for lack of a sufficiently
profitable market, or if developed, are not accessible to end-user needs. Too
many Action Plans to follow, not a single one that works.

Immediate steps are essential for the protection of the Nature. The
primary function of such attempts is to help stakeholders, for nature
conservation and protection. The government should have the will power to
evict those who have made damages. States do not have provisions for
protection, a lot more needs to be arranged to conserve the environment.

SECTORAL BARRIERS

We must accept consequences of our diversity,
Consequences of 73rd and 74th amendments

Following needs to be done to conserve the environment.

•Build human and institutional capacity
•Develop and deploy improved scientific methods for carbon inventory
•Reference baselines, and actively engage stakeholders
•All the components should be evolved simultaneously to enable adaptive management.

SECTORAL BARRIERS

We must accept consequences of our diversity,
Consequences of 73rd and 74th amendments,
We must accept local political environment,
We must accept our poverty,
We must accept the astronomical gap in present and desired parameters,
We must accept the processes as they really are.

Following needs to be done to conserve the environment.

•Build human and institutional capacity
•Develop and deploy improved scientific methods for carbon inventory
•Reference baselines, and actively engage stakeholders
•All the components should be evolved simultaneously to enable adaptive management.

THE GOOD CHANGE - 12TH SEPTEMBER 2012

The Planning Commission has suggested reworking the National Action Plan on
climate change.
It has reduced the number of missions and refocused them in line with
"priorities".
In 2008, the government had laid out a national strategy that would address
India's development concerns and the challenges that climate change would
present.
The National Action on Climate Change comprising eight missions was presented
as framework to deal challenges of mitigation or reducing emission intensity of
the economy and adapting to the adverse consequences of climate change.
The eight missions covered issues such as solar energy energy efficiency, habitat,
agriculture, water, Himalayan ecosystems, forestry and strategic knowledge.

GOVERNMENTS SHOULD SEEK RESULTS, REVOLUTIONISE

Meet requirements at stakeholder level to meet compliance
requirements. Otherwise array of brainstorming and matrix of data and
detailed processes in charts shall all go a waste.

ULBs. Provide FAR / FSI Benefits on green constructions.

Town Planning. Promote vernacular materials, after educating
through Master Plans.
