The continuous rise in the population of our country has been a key factor in the deterioration of the environment. What’s even more shocking is the fact that most of us are oblivious towards the aggravating danger. For those of us who do realize the threat, have given up on any controlling measures because nothing seems to be working out efficiently. The consequences of such population explosion impacts every life form in the long run.

3. Population Explosion and Pollution Escalation
As per the 2011
census,
metropolitan
cities like
Mumbai (20.7
mil), Delhi
(16.3 mil),
Kolkata (14.7
mil), etc., turn
out to be the
most populous
ones.
On 1st January
2016, the Delhi
government
introduced the
“Odd-Even”
scheme, for a
trial period of
15 days, as a
gesture to
reduce the
soaring spm
levels of the
city
A social media
survey conducted
by NetImpact
Solutions showed
that 34% of
Delhiites were
supportive of
the odd-even
scheme while 45%
of those decided
to give the
scheme a test of
time.

5. The Issue of Massive Vehicle Density
With ever growing population in metro cities vehicle density is increasing,
which is the major cause of pollution. This leads to issues like parking,
congestion in traffic , accidents and what not.
An EY report says that the number of passenger vehicles will go up from 29
million in 2015 to more than 48 million vehicles by 2020.
Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) claimed that personal and passenger
vehicles from outside states account for 22% of the total particulate load
which is not only undercutting pollution control efforts in Delhi but also
making enormous demand for land for parking facilities.

7. Enormous Consumption of Fossil Fuels
The primary energy
consumption in India
is the third-highest
in the world. This
implies huge amounts
of fuel import and its
consumption at a very
massive rate.
In the year 2013,
India imported
approximately 144
million tons of crude
oil alone.
Minimization in the
use of fuel in our day
to day lives can be
instrumental in
bringing down such
huge consumption
figures.
This will not only
decrease the import
quantity of fuels but
will also help in the
forex reserves of our
country to remain
intact.

9. Time Spent In Traveling
Commuters in
India spend a
huge chunk of
their time behind
the wheel.
According to a
survey, 49% of
the respondents
spend more than
100 minutes
driving their car
every day.
Rather than
getting caught up
in such hassles,
one could easily
spend more time
doing something
productive and
hence
contributing to
the overall
economic
development of
the society.

It reduces traffic thereby taking care of issues like congestion
on roads, accidents, parking woes and makes commuting efficient.
This efficiency leads to productivity and the overall economic
growth.
With less amount of vehicles on road, there’s a steep decline
in the use of fuels thereby limiting the amount of pollutants
released into the air.
Less consumption of fuels directly results in the reduction in
its import.
