On measuring Muslim segregation in urban India
The spatial segregation of Muslims in urban India is central to their social, economic and political marginalisation. However, the quantitative characterisation of Muslim segregation has suffered from the lack of readily available demographic data at high spatial and temporal resolution. This paper demonstrates the feasibility of accurately quantifying Muslim segregation in urban India using the latest electoral rolls data from Bengaluru (a megap…
An accounting framework for implementing India’s NDCs and reporting the capacity building needs in the context of the Paris rulebook
The purpose of this paper is to suggest an accounting framework for India for implementation of its nationally determined contributions (NDCs) and design the appropriate modality for reporting its capacity building needs and priorities in a manner that is in consonance with the provisions of the Paris Rule book from the perspective of a developing country. The suggested accounting methodology considers India’s national greenhouse gas (GHG) invent…
Mitigation of non-CO 2 greenhouse gases from Indian agriculture sector
The Indian agriculture sector is driven by small and marginal farmers and employs two-thirds of the Indian work force. Agriculture also accounts for around a quarter of the total greenhouse gas emissions, mainly in the form of methane (CH 4 ) and nitrous oxide (N 2 O). Hence, agriculture is an important sector for India’s transition to net-zero emissions and for the achievement of the sustainable development goals. So far, very few studies have a…
India’s pathway to net zero by 2070
The announcement of India’s 2070 net-zero target has demonstrated the power of a credible policy signal and changed the course of India’s climate debate. While the Government of India (GoI) has not specified whether this target refers to carbon-dioxide or all greenhouse gases, the announcement has been a watershed moment in India’s climate policy. From questions related to whether and at what pace should India decarbonize its economy, various act…
Optimization of process variables for reduction of genotoxicity from paper mill effluent
In recent years, microbial techniques for wastewater degradation process optimization under laboratory circumstances have piqued the interest of many academics acress the word, prompting them to investigate practical, cost- effective and long-term wastewater treatment technologies. Some workers claim that certain metabolic compounds have mutagenic nature and endocrine disrupting properties. To confirm the degradation and identification of a varie…
Understanding temperature related health risk in context of urban land use changes
A city’s climate is affected both by global warming and the local factors such as built form and the landscape. The temperature related impacts of climate change make urban areas more vulnerable particularly due to higher population concentration as well as heat island effect. Cities in India are already experiencing enhanced temperature and precipitation related impacts of climate change and extreme events, e.g., >2 °C warming in some places. Th…
Quantifying the local cooling effects of urban green spaces
SDG implications of water-energy system transitions in India, for NDC, 2 °C, and well below 2 °C scenarios
India needs to address the immediate concerns of water supply and demand, due to its increasing population, rapid urbanization, and growing industrialization. Additionally, the changing climate will influence water resources, which will subsequently impact the overall sectoral end-use demand patterns. In this study, we have integrated a water module with the existing bottom-up, techno-economic Asia–Pacific Integrated Model/End-use energy system m…
Reducing stranded assets through early action in the Indian power sector
Cost-effective achievement of the Paris Agreement’s long-term goals requires the unanimous phase-out of coal power generation by mid-century. However, continued investments in coal power plants will make this transition difficult. India is one of the major countries with significant under construction and planned increase in coal power capacity. To ascertain the likelihood and consequences of the continued expansion of coal power for India’s futu…
Implications of land use transitions and climate change on local flooding in urban areas
Macroeconomic assessment of India’s development and mitigation pathways
Although a rapidly growing economy, India faces many challenges, including in meeting the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations. Moreover, post-2020 climate actions outlined in India’s Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) under the Paris Agreement envision development along low-carbon emission pathways. With coal providing almost three-quarters of Indian electricity, achieving such targets will have wide-ranging implications for…
