In the era of globalization, industrialization and fast growing economies in the world , there is serious damage for the world wandering around it i.e temperature rise due to pollution.
Unorganized and not sustainable use of resources of mother land led to the degradation and further extinction. but our needs are increasing day by day so we have to think of alternative fuel ( resources ) which can be renewed and reused for longer time.
In order to control the pollution and temperature rise on the earth, several measures have been taken in previously and also will be taken in the future also. for instance, Paris Agreement is an agreement within the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), dealing with greenhouse-gas-emissions mitigation, adaptation, and finance, starting in the year 2020.
Paris Agreement of November 2018, 195 UNFCCC members have signed the agreement, and 184 have become party to it. It was asked to all the signed nation to control their emission to limit the temperature rise
of 1.5 °C, since this would substantially reduce the risks and effects of climate change.
Now, as Technocrat or engineer , i can say that new and advance technology will be the masterstroke for controlling the pollution, like transformation of ordinary industries into industry 4.0, use of AI , Machine learning etc can be tools to control the pollution.
One other side of pollution control is advancement in fuel & its fueling system. Traditional fuels create more pollution and can not be reused. so we need advancement of research and development in fuel.
World View :
Here, four countries who are using Hydrogen energy in innovative ways as shown in linked video by World Economic Forum.
- Recently, Germany introduced world’s first Hydrogen fueled train that emits only steam and water in exhaust. it can run 1000 Km in one full tank. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6O6BS7NI0U
- Scotland, is planning to build the first hydrogen powered seagoing ferries to connect the Orkney Islands and help curb CO2 emissions.
- Japan wants to increase its 8 existing hydrogen refueling stations to 35 by 2020. and creating greener society in time for the 2020 Olympics.
- England has unveiled pioneering zero emissions double-decker bus powered by hydrogen.
India View :
Moreover, many developing countries like India has also committed to control the emission from its industries and motor engines. In this regard, Indian government has made policies on fuel consumption and production. the Government of india also admitted that Ethanol could be the better alternative of the petrol and diesel at lower cost.
