The State of India's Environment: Reflecting Its Underdevelopment
V. Santhakumar The state of India’s environment: reflecting its underdevelopment O meio ambiente na Índia: reflexos do seu subdesenvolvimento V. Santhakumara aPh.D. Social Sciences, Professor at Azim Premji University, Bangalore, India. E-mail: [email protected] doi:10.18472/SustDeb.v8n3.2017.27461 Recebido em 14.10.2017 Aceito em 09.11.2017 ARTIGO - VARIA ABSTRACT This essay takes stock of major environmental problems of contemporary India, and speculates on the relationship between economic (underdevelopment) and environmental outcomes. The continuation of the poverty and underdevelopment in the country seem to have shaped the nature of environmental problems that are faced by India. Open defecation and burning of biomass for cooking continue to be major sources of pollution. On the other hand, India’s economic growth is driven by service-sector, and hence industry-led pollution has not increased to a level that can be expected in a developing country which has witnessed an above 5 percent economic growth during the last three decades. The paper concludes with a relook at the possible relationship between human development and environment, and possible strategies which are needed for sustainable development. Keywords: India; Environment; Underdevelopment; sustainable Development RESUMO Este ensaio apresenta um levantamento dos principais problemas ambientais da Índia contemporânea e especula sobre a relação entre a esfera econômica (subdesenvolvimento) e os resultados ambientais. A continuação da pobreza e do subdesenvolvimento no país parece ter moldado a natureza dos problemas ambientais que a Índia enfrenta. A defecação em locais inapropriados e a queima de biomassa para cozinhar continuam a ser as principais fontes de poluição. -

Collective Journey of the Globe Francis P Xavier SJ Vice President for Academics and Research, Jesuit Worldwide Learning, Geneva
Enviro-Club inaugural address: Loyola College Aug2018 Collective Journey of the Globe Francis P Xavier SJ Vice President for Academics and Research, Jesuit Worldwide Learning, Geneva Respected officials and faculty members and dear students of Enviro- Club of Loyola College. Where are we? Status of our Environment: Environment might be one of the most important treasures entrusted to us, but human beings do end up treating it recklessly. We have exploited it to the maximum and now the environment is reacting through natural disasters, water shortage, air pollution etc. Other outcomes of environment exploitation are complex diseases, ever increasing child- mortality, hunger, and poverty. In order to raise awareness about protecting our environment, which is our Mother Nature, every year June 5 is celebrated as World Environment Day designated by the United Nations. The day also reminds and enables us to be more responsible in the way we conduct ourselves and treat the environment with respect and reverence. India is the global host this year and the theme is ‘Beat Plastic Pollution’. It started in 1974 and since then the day has provided a global platform for like-minded people to reach out to each other. One million plastic bottles are purchased every minute. In Kenya, Africa plastic bags are banned – Before alighting the flight, announcement is made not to take any plastic bags with you. And you do not see plastic bags scattered around in Kenya. Each year 1.7 million deaths of children under 5 years old are linked to the present environmental situation. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, "warming in the Arctic, as indicated by daily maximum and minimum temperatures, has been as great as in any other part of the world." The period of 1995–2005 was the warmest decade in the Arctic since at least the 17th century, with temperatures 2°C (3.6°F) above the 1951–1990 average. -
