About the Book:
This comprehensive volume explores contemporary issues surrounding energy, environment, and globalization in the Indian context, providing critical insights into the country’s energy challenges and environmental concerns. As a signatory to the Paris climate accord, India faces the dual challenge of combating climate change while maintaining its rapid economic growth, which has led to an increase in fossil fuel usage and pollution. The book argues that globalization can have a positive environmental impact by fostering the adoption of environmentally sound technologies and global compliance standards.
Divided into three sections, the book first addresses energy issues in India, covering topics like the status of India’s natural gas market, clean thermal power generation, and the importance of energy use in developing the Human Development Index (HDI). It also evaluates the renewable energy sector and the challenges surrounding energy use in urban India.
The second section delves into environmental concerns, including the impact of global warming on local weather patterns and farming in Odisha, as well as the economic valuation of significant ecological areas such as mangroves and national parks. Additionally, it explores the role of environmental accounting and ecotourism in promoting ecological sustainability.
The third section addresses globalization, examining issues such as the interface between globalization and environmental challenges, the future of bilateral investment treaties (BIT), and strategies for making India’s micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) more competitive in the global market.
This book is an essential resource for policymakers, researchers, and students engaged in the fields of energy, environment, and globalization, providing valuable insights and practical recommendations for sustainable development in India.
