It is vital for any and every human endeavour – from electricity required to run agricultural pumps and machinery, to running the biggest industries efficiently. Energy is ubiquitous. But so are the effects of burning fuel on the environment around us. Our stories focus on people bringing in the winds of change and sharing ideas to help generate energy cleanly and efficiently, without harming the planet. Alternative ideas to power the world ahead.
The mapping of sustainable ideas in the domains of cleanWater, cleanAir, cleanEnergy, cleanEarth or Forest documents India's most seminal ideas in building ecological resilience. Sustainability Idea Labs is delighted to showcase these ideas as Administering Partner at the India Pavilion, London Design Biennale 2021.
