Increasing economic activities, populations and the increasing impacts in terms of carbon emissions have started putting a negative impact on environment and ecology. In order to make a sustainable and healthy living conditions for us and our next generations, we at micro level level to have to take some measures for greening our surroundings.
At a micro level, we ourselves can take steps like planting trees, aware ourselves and our people around, change in our consumption pattern, innovate new technologies in order to develop a parallel resources pool and enhance our productivity and resources efficiency.
Carbon emission Reduction has been a challenge for the sustainable development of the world as a whole. According to the Kyoto protocol- UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change) there is a binding target for 37 industrialised countries and European community for reducing the GHG (Green House Gas) emission an average of 5% over the 5 year period 2008-2012, taking base as 1995. The developing economies have been given flexibility in their carbon emission reductions.To offset the carbon and control pollution different trading schemes have been taken into considerations. Carbon Emission trading is a market based approach by providing economic incentives and cap limit for emissions. Firms need to hold the no. of permits also called carbon credits (1 carbon credit = 1 ton Co2)
Challenges always keep coming. Proper actions are needed. In addition to bring awareness; we will have to pursue with each and every aspects of environmental degradations at a grass roots level.
