Mobile monitoring can supplement regulatory measurements, particularly in low-income countries where stationary monitoring is sparse.
When the Indian government launched the National Clean Air Programme (NCAP) in 2019, it was to cut the concentration of atmospheric Particulate Matter (PM) by 20-30% by 2024, from 2017 levels.
This study placed improving quality of life at the centre of India's national climate policy and asked what happens to greenhouse gas emissions with such an approach.
With increasing trends in road congestion, air pollution, energy demand and emissions, there is a need to look for effective solutions to meet the urban transport demand in Bengaluru.
In December 2015, the MoEFCC notified emission standards for limiting Sulphur Oxides (SOx), Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), Particulate Matter of size <10 µm (PM10) and Mercury (Hg) emissions from coal-based Thermal Power Plants (TPPs).
CSTEP has initiated a source apportionment (SA) study for Bengaluru as per the request of the Government of Karnataka.
The workshop provided a background to the Clean Air Action Plan for Patna, along with interventions that are being taken by different stakeholders.
Centre for Air Pollution Studies (CAPS) is organising a national-level flagship event - India Clean Air Summit (ICAS), 2019 - focusing on air pollution issues in India and mitigation strategies.
India Clean Air Summit 2019 (ICAS19), the annual flagship event of the Centre for Air Pollution Studies (CAPS) at CSTEP, was aimed at addressing the elephant in the room with regard to air pollution: how do we improve air quality when we are not sure about what causes it and by how much?
CAPS is developing an emissions inventory for Bengaluru by estimating the emissions load from different sectors contributing to air pollution and analysing the spatio-temporal distribution of the emissions load.
Bengaluru is today synonymous with traffic and air pollution.
The India Clean Air Summit (ICAS) 2020 was organised on 25 & 26 August.
The Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC), Government of India, launched the National Clean Air Programme (NCAP), which proposes strategies to reduce air pollution.
