Fossil Fuels and Greenhouse Gases
The global emissions have been steadily increasing since 1900 and the rate of their
increase is going up as well.
The six greenhouse gases to account for are, CO2, CH4, SF6, N2O, HFCs and PFCs.

Climate Change and India
• Rise of Sea-level/Depleting water
resources
– Sea level is rising at 3.14 mm a year in the
Sunderbans against a global average of 2
mm, threatening low-lying areas of India
and Bangladesh.
• Impacts on Agricultural yields
– Indian agriculture supports around 60% of
the population and contributes to around
17% of the GDP. For every 1* rise in
temperature there would be a 6%
reduction in the rice yields in India
• Climate Refugees
– Rising sea levels poses a threat of
migration of people into other areas
increasing the stress of infrastructure,
basic amenities and job opportunities

Solar performance assessment
Advantages
• Freely available and can last for a
long long time
• Clean energy from the sun – Zero
Carbon
• Can reach places where grid
electricity does not reach
• Low Maintenance
• Rugged and durable
• Low recurring costs
• Rebates and subsidies from the
govt.
• Nil Transmission losses
Disadvantages
• High initial cost to set-up
• Large area required to set up the
panels
• Reduced production during rainy
days and no production during
nights

"Sustainability is not only absolutely necessary considering the situation our
planet is in, we as companies are also overdue to take responsibility. We
can't wait for governments. Companies have to lead the way…
