The Government of India has approved 213 new coal plants in the next 8 years. This does not make sense at a time when -
- 2/3rd of India’s CO2 emissions come from Coal use in power generation.
- We face a Climate Emergency and the entire life on earth is at threat.
- Coal reserves finish in 30-40 years, whereas the approximate life of a coal plant is about 50 years.
- Renewable alternatives are cheaper, as compared to the massive social and environment cost of coal.
This decision will leave a mess for future generations to deal with - making India vulnerable to energy security, jeopardizing the economy and making the planet unlivable . So why new Coal, when we have alternatives that exist.

Take Individual Action
One unit of electricity saved is equal to avoiding nearly two units of electricity generation. This equals a saving of 1.6 KG of coal.
One efficient lamp in place of a standard bulb avoids burning of half a ton of coal, and creation of 150 kg of Ash
