TECHNICAL PROPOSAL POLLUTION MANAGEMENT, Papers of Environmental Science

As we travel from one area of the country to the other, we see a diversity in culture, people, geography and food. But one thing remains a constant and that is pollution. Pollution is the introduction of harmful materials into the environment. From air pollution to water pollution, we have seen it all and have to suffer from it. The bad smell of the once so beautiful rivers makes one wonder how did it get this bad and how to further prevent it.

INTRODUC TION

  • As we travel from one area of the country to the other, we see a diversity in culture, people, geography and food. But one thing remains a constant and that is pollution. Pollution is the introduction of harmful materials into the environment. From air pollution to water pollution, we have seen it all and have to suffer from it. The bad smell of the once so beautiful rivers makes one wonder how did it get this bad and how to further prevent it. We should work as a community towards a pollution-free nation and eventually to a sustainable future. As a developing country, it is necessary to focus on both development and the environment. A proper compromise must be found if we want to control pollution.

SOLUTION S Pollution is a huge issue that has been plaguing the country and its citizens and will continue to do so if drastic steps aren’t taken.

  • Declaring public properties as a Plastic-free zone and installing a smart dustbins that can provide energy to run as charging station in a 250 m radius.
  • Installation of pollution-checking machines that check the quality of smoke coming out from vehicles.
  • Illegalizing the disposal of sewage into the water sources but rather utilizing the sewage to produce green energy.
  • Reducing the customs tax of electrical vehicles as to promote them.
  • Running nationwide awareness programs to combat the pollution.
  • Requiring vehicles and industries to filter their waste efficiently before disposal.
  • Hydroelectricity can help to reduce the dependance on coal and firewood for energy.

C OS T AND VIABILIT Y

  • The cost of a smart dustbin is around 6000$ and starting by installing it in major cities would cost around $10,000,000 which can be recovered in about 5 years' time from the energy it provides. The import and installation will take about 2-3 years' time.
  • The idea is that the pollution check equipment will help to control the emission from smaller vehicles and costs only about 1000$. Currently the proposed plan is to have them in the 21 major roads around the country.
  • Using sewage as energy is also another viable option. This could reduce the cost of sewage disposal by earning money through the energy produced.
  • Nepal has a 46000 MW hydroelectricity capacity and the required cost to make it would be $102,000,000,000 which is not viable at the moment but is something to look at.
  • Reducing the tax on electric vehicles can help the environment all while increasing car sales.
  • With this measures, Nepal can achieve carbon neutrality and can earn about 5$ for every tonne of CO2 gas reduction which can turn around to give about $5 billion and also the export of electricity can cover the amount spent on environment pollution issues.
