Green Corridors: Policy and Infrastructure for Low-Carbon Transport

Title - Green Corridors: Policy and Infrastructure for Low-Carbon Transport


Transport is one of the largest sources of carbon emissions across the world. Ships, trucks, trains, and city traffic move goods and people every day, but they also consume large amounts of fuel and pollute the air. As trade grows and cities expand, cutting emissions from transport has become a priority for governments and planners.

Green corridors address this challenge by focusing on specific, high-traffic routes where cleaner fuels, better infrastructure, and clear policies are applied together. This article explains what green corridors are, how policy and infrastructure support them, and why they matter for future transport systems.

Title -  Building India’s Hydrogen Economy: Infrastructure, Policy, and Investment India is rapidly forging a new identity on the world stage as a formidable leader in green hydrogen, backed by ambitious policies, unprecedented investments, and forward-thinking infrastructure planning. The government’s explicit target—to reach 5 million metric tonnes (MMT) of green hydrogen production per year by 2030 with nearly ₹19,744 crore in support—signals not only a national turning point in energy and industry but also an influential role in the global climate transition. To truly understand India’s green hydrogen transformation , it is vital to analyze the underlying vision, growth drivers, infrastructure rollouts, regional adaptation, policy landscape, investment opportunities, sectoral focus, and the challenges on the horizon. Vision and Growth Drivers At the core of India’s hydrogen push lies the National Green Hydrogen Mission (NGHM), launched in 2023. The mission positions India a...

Their growth is critical to India’s ambition of becoming a $5 trillion economy. Goods and Services Tax (GST) 1.0 regime often posed challenges for small businesses especially from complex procedures and inverted duty structures. Recognizing this, the government has introduced a series of GST reforms to simplify operations thereby reduce compliance burdens, and encourage growth for MSMEs. Simplifying and rationalizing the GST rate structure One of the most significant areas of reform has been the rationalization of GST rates. The move toward a fewer-slab, simplified struc...

Life-Cycle Assessment of Packaging Materials: Measuring Real Environmental Impact

Title -  Life-Cycle Assessment of Packaging Materials: Measuring Real Environmental Impact The trend of living an eco-friendly life has become quite prevalent in recent times, but sadly, it seems that most enterprises and people are still guessing or using their intuitions to figure out what is eco-friendly, which may result in ignorance. A consumer will immediately connect an earthy-looking material, such as unbleached cardboard or a 'compostable' sticker on the package, with the idea of going green. But that first impression might be quite misleading. The impact the packaging has on the environment is not a simple, separate occurrence but rather a long, complicated story that traverses the world supply chain.   The Great Packaging Illusion We all find ourselves in such a scenario at the grocery store, don’t we? Two products, looking exactly alike, are the ones that draw our attention. One of them is in a plastic container, the other one in a beautiful glass jar with a...
