Impact of Sustainable Development on Climate Change and Student Learnings

Abstract

Energy demand is increasing day by day and to overcome these challenges we are depending more on non- renewable energy sources. The non-renewable energy sources such as thermal power plant, nuclear power plant, diesel power plant, etc., release more carbon dioxide and other harmful gasses into the environment. This causes raise in temperature, water getting polluted, etc. To overcome global climate change challenges (temperature raising, water pollution, air pollution, etc.), an affiliated institution in the south of India implements utilizing the renewable energy sources -- wind mill, solar energy & other sources- rainwater harvesting, water recycling, etc. on the campus. This paper describes the details of the implementation of these different projects. The implication of this work is to create awareness of an impactful initiative for other institutions to follow.
