Nepal has not set a target to reduce carbon emission according to the intended nationally determined contribution (INDC) pledge. This will promote a low carbon economy and enhance carbon trading which will help to combat climate change, create pressure to reduce emissions, improve the economy, generate more employment opportunities and accelerate development. Manjeet Dhakal, technical advisor to the Ministry of Environment Science and Population, says that Nepal can go for a viable mitigation approach instead of limiting itself to adaptation because it is a negligible emitter of greenhouse gases.

TWO DAYS CAMPAIGN AGAINST CLIMATE CHANGE

With all excitement and motivation first day with fruitfulness began from Bhirkutimandap where bus was waiting for all 100 participants. While trying to be punctual i reached before arrival time given by GPS(Global Power Shifter)Nepal team. It was weird to wait for my friends in between more than 30 participants whom i had never met before. Oh! Finally they arrived after 15 minutes thank god. As we got signal that we were about to begin our trip to Nagarkot we were smart enough to step first on the bus.....no doubt that i reserved a corner window seat , a place where i feel good while travelling. Now this is where my story gets interesting. since we were 4 friends, one of my friend had to return to his home for a while due to some reason, but he would be back on his own in the training center, so we were three now, i had to sit alone on that seat ......after few minutes a girl came and asked me if anyone was seating by my side then i replied "no, you can seat".  Now we w

RATNAPARK-OUR RESPONSIBILITY

Image
Shocked!! is this how Ratnapark looks ??? i never thought it would be very Peaceful, green ...wow even ponds, fountains though dirty since last 7 years- It was the first time i ever entered in the premises... and i was very lucky because the first time i entered was the first time when KMC restricted the entrance of public. Being at the place was for a purpose, I along with my friend had to take permission for 22 April "EARTH DAY".......as we explained our planned event, we were appreciated by Mr. Hari Kc for a good cause which would help them as well. The Slogan for EARTH DAY was GREEN CITIES this was the perfect place for us to create awareness being power shifters. All done with our arrangements and planned activities, we were all set to value our Ratnapark. The event was supposed to start from 7 a.m, i just could see few people around supporting us, i thought people would be more concerned about this event because it is the first ever cleaning done by any organizati

A Visit to Bhaktapur

Image
  Explored Bhaktapur today, was surprised to see those people who were proud of themselves constructing a way for sewage to Manohara River. People constructing a canal kept my eye on, i was curious so i asked them " Is this canal for the irrigation purpose?" and what i heard made me comment bitterly "stone the crows", it was actually sewarage for sewage   way out to  Manohara   river.   I couldn't walk away so i asked them who is actually responsible for making this swerage?,,,,was surprised more with the answer... the reply was "Bhaktapur munipality". While We are trying to change the scenario of Bagmati at the one hand,  Manohara   is being polluted more at the other hand. Municipality itself is deteriorating the environment, instead of finding some solution for the problem they are making a solution of  Manohara  and sewages .Bhaktapur is one of the few municipalities in Nepal where LDF do not contribute the biggest part of total revenue (approx
