Download the Boeing File for their 2014 environmental report. Look at what they have done. If you run a small metal fabrication plant that does welding, cutting, painting, packing, and whatever else, how can you go about to make the process more environmentally friendly.

Solution

Answer :

Increasing urbanization and its changing structure has resulted in drastic changes in our local
and global environment. Estimates show that cities account for 80% of energy consumption
and 75% of carbon emissions world over.1 The increasing population pressure on land in urban
areas also adds to the stress on fresh water, urban green spaces, biodiversity, and air and water
quality. Another issue of concern is the disposal of the ever-growing magnitude of urban waste.
These issues are inextricably intertwined with basic urban infrastructure — housing, transport
system, health infrastructure, and other civic amenities, to name a few. This necessitates a holistic
and innovative approach to environmental policy integrated within basic urban planning.
India’s urban population as per 2011 Census was 377.10 million, a growth of 31% over the
last decade, and accounting for 31.16% of the country’s total population. This is projected to
reach 600 million by the year 2030.2 In a territory as diverse and complex as India, environmental
policy making has to be multilevel and participatory, taking into account the changing aspirations
and concerns of citizens. Principle 10 of the Rio Declaration on Environment and Development
states, “environmental issues are best handled with participation of all concerned citizens, at the
relevant level”.3
Citizen surveys are an important tool for making inclusive and informed policy decisions.
Insights into awareness, perceptions, and opinions of citizens on environmental issues and
interventions are valuable inputs for governments and other relevant agencies in reviewing
policies and interventions, and improving their uptake and implementation. TERI Environmental
Surveys are a step in this direction.
TERI Environmental Survey 2014 comprised a sample of 11,214 citizens spread over 8
urban agglomerates across the geographical span of India — Coimbatore, Guwahati, Indore,
Jamshedpur, Kanpur, Pune and the two most-populated metros of Delhi and Mumbai. In general,
the survey focused on the environment, and in particular, issues of water and waste. The survey
was conducted between December 2013 and February 2014 through face-to-face interviews in
each city using a standardized questionnaire.
