India is breaking free from the chains of fossil fuels

Deccan Chronicle. (2023b, June 5). With global biofuel alliance, India is breaking free from the chains of fossil fuels. Deccan Chronicle. https://www.deccanchronicle.com/lifestyle/environment/050623/with-global-biofuel-alliance-india-is-breaking-free-from-the-chains-o.html 

India is attempting to add biofuel more into their society. They are attempting to form an alliance with the US and Brazil. They have also participated in the IEA (Internal Energy’s association) and the TCP (Bioenergy Technology Programme); these are both programs that encourage the usage of bioenergy. Through these programs India has been pushing hard on biofuels, so they can reduce their greenhouse gasses, and to achieve sustainable development. 

Environmental science is being adapted to foreign countries as they are now attempting to use scientific studies so they can develop a healthier and cleaner country. As pollution is an increasing problem and they’re attempting to reduce it with a science based solution that involves biofuel. Reading this article I am delighted to see countries push for the further use of biofuels, but after learning about biofuels more in depth I grow concerned on how they’ll be capable of producing a gargantuan amount.

  1. We definitely want to see India, with the second largest population of any country, move away from fossil fuels. I agree with your sentiments… and you pose a good question, Eduardo- can they produce the amounts they need? Also, did they mention what they are actually turning into biofuel? It’s a big difference if it’s corn or cane sugar, like Brazil.

    This is a well written abstract, Eduardo.

  2. I think this response was very well written! I am also very pleased to see a country like India, one that’s known worldwide for its high pollution levels, taking big steps towards running a more environmentally sustainable country. Given India has a very large economy and has the money to suppress it’s environmental effects, I wonder why it’s taken them so long to create some amount of change? Personally, I think education is a great first step because obviously the widespread pictures of heavy traffic plowing through heavy smog isn’t enough.

  3. Exciting to read. It’s really great to hear that such a large country is moving to renewable and makes me look positively to the future.
