 Good evening to you all, I am Vijay, so environment faculty. So coming to our 2022, the main GS paper 3, so I am going to discuss about the environmental questions. So totally we had around 3 questions. So 2 questions from the conference of party of 2000, that is the 26th of the UNFCCC, so on the climate change and then one question we had it from the air pollution. So if you see the level of question, it is a very basic level and it was directly from the current affair, it is the last one, one and a half years of time. So here the first question is, explain the purpose of green grid initiative launched at world leaders of the UNFCCC, that is the conference of party 26 UNCCC in Glasgow in November 21. When was this, then that was the first part of the question, the second part of the question is when was this idea of first voter in the ISA, International Solar Alliance. So here you can start with the introduction that you can even start with the ISA it was it was first floated in 2018. So in our ISA, we have this one sun, one world, one grid, actually that is what OSOWOG and that is the initiative of India. When you come to the UK side, the UK has a green grid initiative, GGI. So here both the country leaders have joined together and said that we are going to have a common program, it is the GGI iPhone OSOWOG, it is nothing but whatever the International Solar Alliance, the policy we have brought it that will be merged with, not merged, it is something associated or collaborated with the green grid initiative. So this is what you need to start with it. So basically it is to bring a global grid connectivity. So that is the first part, that is the first introduction, you can tell it in anywhere around 22, 25 to 30 words. Then the real the question is purpose of green grid initiative launched. Minimum we can talk, discuss minimum 7 to 8 purpose. So the very first purpose is to bring a solar grid infrastructure, that is very important. So here throughout the world we need to bring the grid connectivity. So wherever you generate the solar power, wherever you want to use it, whichever the country you want to use it, yes it can be connected. So across the world we have to do it. So this we are going to do it in three phase. In the first phase, so here when you come to the Indian side, Middle East, South Asia and also some of the Asian countries we are going to develop. In the second phase we are going to connect with Africa, in the third phase it is a global connectivity. So that can be the first point you can write. The second is the main purpose is to support our Paris agreement and also to control the climate change. The third point is it is to stimulate the green investments and also to create more jobs. And the fourth point you can also discuss about creating more financial instruments and at the same time bringing more investments in the micro, of course in the micro grids and also in the rooftop solar. And apart from that this particular purpose is also to bring cutting edge technologies and also the transfer of technology from the rich country to the developing country or thing. And apart from that it is also going to reduce your carbon footprint and at the same time energy cost. And apart from that the next point you can also discuss it is also going to support your global you know the net zero emission or net zero vehicles that also it is going to support. And the last point you can discuss it will have a spill over effect. So this global grid connectivity so through enhancing the energy clean energy through enhancing job creation investment it is going to have impact on the poverty it is going to reduce poverty it is going to improve the drinking water supply sanitation and also food security. So these are the points you can discuss so totally it is only 10 marks and 150 words so I think these points are more sufficient. The last point you can talk about the challenges so the challenges the two challenges you can discuss last point so the one is you know that this particular solar power it is going to be only the morning time that is the day time and also the seasonal variation whether also depends on so that is one limitation and apart from that we are investing a huge money on the grid connectivity on measure on the grid infrastructure. Now if there is any natural disaster what is going to happen so that is a one challenger two challenges we have so 150 words two sites so you can give the maximum content. Now coming to the second question describe the key points of the revised global air quality guideline recently released by the World Health Organization then how are these is different from the last update in 2005 then the third part of the question is what changes in India's NCAP initial national clean air program are required to achieve this review standards okay. So when you start with the introduction you can tell this particular stringent WHO norms of this 2000 the latest update is going to be that is a 2021 update is going to have a better impact on the air quality in turn it is going to control the better air quality in turn improve the health and the environment so you can start with it is going to be a stringent norms. Now when you say how it is different the second part you have to discuss how it is different from the last update so here definitely we have no other option to just discuss on some of the data so at least some of the prime data as you can discuss so 2005 second is the 2021 so if you try to compare the 2005-2021 so especially let us take the very important criteria put in PM 2.5 so it was 25 now in the 2021 it is 15 units whereas PM 10 it was 50 to 45 50 units in the 2005 they have reduced to 45 when you take a nitrogen dioxide it was actually it was not set in the 2005 now in the new measurement they have set in the new 2021 they have set it as 25 units sulphur dioxide it was 20 now it is 40 but whereas the ozone which was around 100 the same 100 is maintained it is a eight hour mean but whatever I have discussed in the previous one all it is a 24 hour mean now so this is the standard now how it is going to impact on the India so for that first thing you can discuss about the NAQS national air quality standard ambient air quality standard so here already our national NAQS is not up to the WHO because if you see the data suppose if it is 25 to 15 particulate matter 25 to 15 was reduced but now our NAQS is only 60 so still we are maintaining at 60 so it's going to be very high it's very high and if you see particulate matter so the new standard says 45 but our NAQS says it's 100 when you come to NO2 it is 25 but we are maintaining 80 in our NAQS when you come to sulphur dioxide it is anywhere around 40 but we are maintaining at 80 so now how well it is going to impact the WHO guideline is going to impact our Indian pollution of course not so because already our national air quality standard is not in line with the WHO second is national clean air program so here when you first you have to discuss about you have to tell what is the criteria for a national clean air program it is around 20 to 25 percent of sorry 20 to 30 percent of reduction of particulate matters okay by 2024 at 2017 level for the 122 cities especially the non-attainment cities at the 2017 base level so here the first thing we are not very clear this 20 to 30 percent reduction how much it is going to have an influence on the NAQS so that's a one thing the second thing is actually the national clean air program we have we have tried to copy or borrow from the china so china has such a program you have to explain the china has such a program so it is a 25 year program where they have reduced 65 percentage now if the national the question is about how it is different from and what changes yes if you bring the NA CP as a 25 year program with a more target oriented then definitely it can reach the WHO this is how we can conclude so basically we have a plan we started with a five years plan it is 2024 but actually the original India idea of NA CP NC AP is for 25 years so we will start with five years then we'll go for 15 years then we'll go for 25 years something so what we have to do is like china we have to take it up take it up 15 years or something we have to aggressively there is for 15 years we can also reduce for 10 years or something aggressively do it by that weight 60 65 percent if you reduce it there are more chances that we can meet the WHO norm so this is what actually we have to conclude in this question okay coming to the last question it is a 200 250 words of 15 marks describe the major outcome of the 26th session of the COP of UN of triple C the glass low and the what are the commitments made by India so the first part is a major part so here you can discuss as a point where you can tell so when you come to the outcome so what are the discuss the first two thing is we have decided on the ending the deforestation we have taken a commitment so here the one thing is all has said that we have lost more than 250,000 50,000 square kilometer of forest we have lost it so here the target is anywhere around 2030 so we have said that 2030 we have to completely stop this deforestation to slow down so that is the first two point 20 words you can write the second one is reducing methane emission that is a major commitment we have done so we have said that even though carbon dioxide is a major focus so methane is also one of the strong greenhouse gas which has a high global warming potential so here we have taken a resolution we have taken a thing we have taken a discussion we have done a discussion on reducing the methane emission that is the second point you can mention actually as offline I think they have also done a global methane pledge that also you can mention the third point you can discuss about the infrastructure and resilient there is a resilient infrastructure for the climate change so already we have a coalition for disaster resilient infrastructure that discussion also was there that also you can mention the fourth one you can mention about the same the grid connectivity so that all discussion also is that that is the fourth point the fifth point you can discuss about the financial instrument that is they have decided that we have to align the financial instrument for the net zero 2050 so you have to mention about the net zero 2050 so for that they have taken a discussion they have done the discussion that all the financial instrument has to be aligned towards the net zero 2050 that is the fourth point you can do fifth point you can discuss and the sixth point they have also discussed on the abandoning the IC engine and reduction of the you know accelerating the coal reduction and also reducing the financial instrument for coal any coal financing or something that fifth point you can write it and apart from that yes the one major decision which was taken on the article six of the Paris agreement so the international carbon mechanism yes that decision they have taken it of course they have concluded the article six of Paris agreement in that the two things you can mention the first thing is they have accepted for the carry forward of the CDM carbon credits that you can discuss the second is they have also accepted that double counting we will try to control it so that is one in the international carbon emission and then they have also taken that this Paris agreement should be in a common timeframe like 2025 30 so there should not be any changes so if there is anything a plan for 2004 50 we have to decide by 2035 to 40 itself so that's a common timeframe and also they have also decided on the transparency these many points you can write okay with that you can also write so you can if you write it it will come anywhere under 150 points or 150 words something then what is missing that also the point we have to write the first thing is NDC commitment is insufficient for keeping the 1.5 degree Celsius that point medically you have to write because the UNEP and all says that if you don't go by the if you don't take up more NDC commitment probably we may even breach more than three degree Celsius that point we have to write second is financing the developed country financing to the developing country poor country no we don't find much you know information that so there is no proper pledge and all then the third important point is loss and damages the Warsaw international mechanism for loss and damages even though that discussion was taken that US has never pledged actually US and all said that it is going to be a financial burden so they said that this dialogue the loss and damages dialogue has to be taken a separate platform separate dialogue it should not be within the COP that is what US has said is that this mean the rich country is trying to escape from the financing for the loss and damage that point you have to mention then the next point is about the more pledge the India the other developing country says that the common but differential responsibility so still it is maintained the rich country has to take more pledge so these many points you can discuss in this and then what is the India commitment it's a factual points so you have to write it the one is as we told the 500 gigawatts by 2030 through the non fossil fuel so that you can describe the second point is about the 2030 fulfilling all over by 2030 we will fulfill all over 50 percent of the energy demand okay through the renewable energy then of course we have said that we will bring the carbon intensity reduction by 45 percentage by 2030 that's a major target India has given and the fourth one is we have also said that we will cut the carbon emission by 1 billion tons from now until 2030 and apart from this and also achieve the net zero ah very important the four four fifty point or fourth fifty point is net zero carbon emission we said it's 2017 so based on the financing and other pattern and apart from that already in the Paris agreement we have given a good amount of the good amount of targets so whatever the NDC we have given the same NDC you can write it so if you write it it's going to be 250 words so more content you can find okay so that is about the three questions okay thank you thank you
