For every litre of petrol used we release 2.3 kgs of CO2 Bangalore CO2 emission estimate from only private vehicles is close to 13,00,000,000 Kgs of CO2 per year. Aviation fuel per day : 1,200,000 litres. Brought from Chennai in tankersIndia’s consumption of power: India’s consumption of power In India 67% of our power comes from coal power plants For every 1 MW of coal power used 970 Kgs of CO2 is released Therefore for every 1 MW of power used 650 Kgs of CO2 is released In 2004, Bangalore’s peak usage was 1000 MW, equal to over 20 MILLION KGS of CO2 released PER DAY………Bangalore: Bangalore Population : 8 million Ecological Footprint : 50 – 75 millionSo, is there no alternative ?: So, is there no alternative ? the US economy grew 19% While total energy use decreased 6% Post oil shock in 1979-84 Savings in energy = 500% of new generationIs this an answer ?: Is this an answer ?Slide14: Or this ?The way we use water at home…..: The way we use water at home….. 110 km 10 km 60% of BWSSB’s income goes into energy costsSlide16: Earth by GalileoChief Seattle ….: Chief Seattle ….
