My & yours’s Restored Ideas to control Air pollution in India—No odd & even confusion

Lately we came across various environment related talks, meetings and so on. Indian principal court has given some stiff rules to obey on controlling air pollution in capital of India, Delhi, may be essential and unavoidable.
Then, I anticipate hitches in implementing the complicated rules laid.
-How ban on private cars will reduce and help the city to overcome huge air pollution disorder?
-Are we missing the target?
-Are we complicating city’s socio-economic & cultural scenario?
-Can the order of court be followed or implemented with existing public transport model?
Well, we must be having better ideas. Great Indian ideas! Indian juggadbazzi….yes we have!

I am just hoarding up few easy ways which I have distinguished from people around me. I believe these are better ways to handle pollution of air. Indiawalle let’s do it and question for it.

Develop Cycle Lanes—
This one is great idea. I don’t know why India do not have cycle lanes across cities or when road models are build cycle lanes should be given priority and extra attention. With safe cycle lanes people will be motivated as use of cycle not only save money but also improves health a lot.




Rise parking charges—
Oho, this may sound little different but not a bad idea as increase in parking charges will make vehicle users to reduce the use and so the less pollution.





Citizens should have proper footpaths—
By providing good footpaths, clean subways, and zebra crossing. These will motivate pedestrian’s to walk, with better subways and walk paths use of public transport will increase. I do not see any hurdle in improving this kind of infrastructure across nation. Do you feel any issue in this?
Efficient Public Transport network—
Indian cities are in need of super strong network of public transportation. The government should consider introducing more ecofriendly buses, special buses for senior citizens & physically challenged. More number of sub-urban trains and metros too can be introduced. A better public transport certainly helps to reduce the private vehicles.

Only people zones—
Identify and develop only pedestrian zones or only people zone, especially where huge crowded shopping places exist. This will discourage the vehicle users to use vehicles for shopping and so reduces the pollution.

Rise vehicle fuel prices—
Smiling….well you feel this is already implemented but certainly rise in petrol and diesel prices may contribute to reduce the vehicle usage. And moreover don’t forget we are exploiting natural resources.
