RESPONSE
  1. Despite the energy sector being critical for growth, its environmental effects have to be kept in mind when a new project is planned to be set up. There is a need to subject all projects to Assessment (EIA) and carrying capacity studies.
  2. Adoption of cleaner coal combustion technologies and coal washing to avoid transport of fly ash should be implemented on a priority basis. Greening of coal mining sites should also be done immediately.
  3. Use of more non-conventional energy and setting up of small hydel plants should be done in a big way.careful Environmental Impact
