TERI spells out sustainable development plan

摘要

THE Energy Resources Institute (TERI) has put together recommendations on sustainable development for the new government, in a report that covers water, air pollution, waste management, green infrastructure, transport, energy security and renewable energy. The institute has calculated the economic cost of inaction and spelled out the framework and policies that the government must focus on to yield results in the first 100 days. "We need leapfrog measures now, that also cover the un-served population of our country," said R K Pachauri, director-general of TERI and chairperson of Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
