Matha Vihar Hospital was finding it difficult to retain doctors due to the remoteness of the location and unregulated power supply. Now, the hospital has a bigger plant with battery backup and a unique remote monitoring system (RMS) to monitor the performance of the #SolarPlant.

Hi! I spent the last 13 months writing stories across India's west coast - from port development and fish famine to chemical pollution to water scarcity to diversion - with the underlying theme of prioritization of corporate interests over communities and water ecosystems.#THREAD

Fossil fuel companies in the Permian Basin claim 1.4% of the methane they drill gets into the atmosphere. But when a group of Stanford researchers measured 26,000 oil and gas wells, they found a 9% leak rate. That makes gas from the Permian worse for the planet than coal.

So we got people to stop using #plasticstraws for this to take over. 'By May 2022, the International Seabed Authority... issued 31 contracts to explore #deepsea #mineral deposits. > than 1.5 million km2 of seabed, (size of Mongolia),has been set aside for mineral exploration'
As the deep sea remains understudied and poorly understood, there are many gaps in our understanding of its biodiversity and ecosystems making it difficult to assess the potential impacts of #DeepSea mining. Our Issues Brief explains bit.ly/3ORd6wQ #BBNJ #HighSeasTreaty

#Budget2023 'Results based financing for select schemes' jumps out. Will be interesting to see how this is monitored and evaluated. Currently, the only physical and financial progress is measured for most rural development schemes.
