During the third edition of WION’s Mission Sustainability, held on Tuesday (December 2), Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari, presented a bold vision for India’s future with a focus on clean energy, innovation, and sustainable development. At the summit, Gadkari stressed on India’s commitment to reducing pollution and advancing green technologies, while also paving the way for the country to become an energy exporter within the next decade.<h2>Hydrogen: The fuel of the future</h2>In his speech, Gadkari pointed to the growing importance of hydrogen as the fuel of the future. He proudly mentioned that his own car runs on hydrogen, highlighting how far the country has come in adopting alternative fuels. He said, “Hydrogen is the fuel of the future, and my car is hydrogen-powered. A lot of infrastructure and agricultural equipment are now electrically powered. In the next 10 years, we will be an energy exporter, not an importer.” &nbsp;The minister was optimistic about the future of green hydrogen, emphasising the country’s strong commitment to research and innovation. He also stressed the crucial role of India’s automobile industry in this transformation, with several hydrogen-powered trucks and buses already being tested and implemented across the country. Gadkari remarked that, “Hydrogen fuel cells are already being tested in trucks and buses, and we’re on the verge of significant breakthroughs. I’m confident that the future fuel will be hydrogen.”&nbsp;Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/india-news/beyond-stubble-burning-industrial-emissions-and-traffic-behind-delhi-s-poor-aqi-experts-have-their-say-at-wion-s-mission-sustainability-1764666167892">Beyond stubble burning, industrial emissions and traffic behind Delhi's poor AQI: Experts have their say at WION’s Mission Sustainability</a>

<h2>Transition to electric and alternative fuels&nbsp;</h2>Gadkari also underscored the remarkable progress India has made in adopting electric vehicles (EVs) and other green technologies. He recalled how, just a few years ago, people questioned the practicality of EVs, especially when it came to roadside assistance and infrastructure. However, today, electric vehicles are seeing rapid growth, with an annual growth rate of 30-40%. “When we first began the push for electric vehicles, the cost of lithium-ion batteries was $150 per kilowatt-hour. Today, it’s down to $55-$60 per kilowatt-hour,” Gadkari said, indicating the remarkable strides in&nbsp;reducing costs and improving accessibility. &nbsp;He also highlighted India’s successful trials of electric buses, trucks, and even agricultural equipment like electric tractors. “In my own farm, we have installed solar power, which makes the cost of operating an electric tractor virtually zero,” he shared. Gadkari stressed that with continued technological advancements, the country is poised to make the leap into a new era of green energy, moving away from fossil fuels and toward more sustainable alternatives.<h2>Biofuels and agriculture: A green revolution</h2>The minister also focused on the importance of integrating biofuels into India’s energy mix. He emphasised that the agricultural sector, which contributes to 12% of India’s GDP, must play a significant role in the country’s energy transition. “Our agricultural sector is facing challenges, but we are diversifying agriculture towards the energy and power sectors. By converting surplus agricultural produce like sugarcane, corn, rice, and even bamboo into ethanol, we can reduce dependency on traditional fossil fuels,” Gadkari explained. &nbsp;He highlighted several successful initiatives, such as the use of ethanol from broken rice and corn, which has significantly increased the income of farmers in regions like Uttar Pradesh and Punjab. Additionally, biofuels are playing a pivotal role in addressing India’s pollution problem. “We are also making bioethanol from rice straw, which has been a major source of air pollution due to the burning of stubble. In Panipat, we’ve launched a plant that converts rice straw into ethanol and bio-bitumen, creating sustainable fuel alternatives,” Gadkari added.<h2>The road ahead: Sustainable development and infrastructure</h2>Gadkari also highlighted how infrastructure development, particularly in roadways, plays a key role in sustainability. “The transport sector contributes to 40% of air pollution, and I am very much responsible for this. But we are now building highways that are faster, more efficient, and less polluting,” he said. He pointed out the progress made in developing express highways that will significantly reduce travel time and fuel consumption. For example, the Delhi-Dehradun highway now takes just two hours, compared to the previous four-hour journey. &nbsp;Gadkari also noted the country’s success in reducing logistics costs. “We’ve already reduced our logistics cost by 6%. Our target is to match China’s logistics cost by the end of this year, and in the coming years, we aim to bring it in line with global standards,” he revealed. He emphasised that the development of high-speed, well-maintained roads is essential for reducing fuel consumption and supporting the adoption of electric and alternative fuel vehicles. &nbsp;Gadkari stressed that India’s rapid development must not come at the cost of environmental degradation. “Our mission for sustainable development must go hand in hand with protecting our ecology and environment. We are already using municipal waste in road construction and making bio-bitumen from agricultural residues. We’ve transplanted over 88,000 trees and planted over 4.5 crore trees to help protect the environment,” Gadkari said. &nbsp;He also reflected on the need to protect water resources and reduce the impact of floods, especially in areas like Vidarbha, where water conservation efforts have seen significant success. “Water conservation is a major part of our green revolution. We’ve already made 10,000 Amrush Sarovars, and we are focusing on increasing the water table and protecting our communities from floods,” he noted. &nbsp;In his closing remarks, Gadkari called on all stakeholders, government, industry, and citizens, to unite in the effort to create a greener, more sustainable India. “We must work together to protect our environment and ensure that we leave behind a better, cleaner world for future generations. The green revolution is our mission, and sustainable development is the key to achieving it,” he concluded.

During the third edition of WION's Mission Sustainability and in the fifth session of titled, ‘Alternative Energy: Models of Sustainability’, WION's Eric Njoka was in conversation with Nathan Davis, trade and investment commissioner with Austrade, based in New Delhi, Kishor Nair, Chief Executive Officer and Director at Avaada Energy and Arshibhai Kambariya, MD and CEO of Opera Energy Limited.&nbsp;Alternative energy refers to energy sources that are considered more sustainable and environmentally friendly compared to traditional fossil fuels like coal, oil, and natural gas. These include renewable resources such as solar, wind, geothermal, and hydropower, which are replenished naturally and produce little to no harmful emissions. Alternative energy systems are designed to reduce environmental impact, promote long-term sustainability, and support a transition to cleaner, more resilient energy systems that are economically viable and socially equitable.&nbsp;Opening the discussion, Mr. Kambaria of Opera Energy spoke about the evolution of India’s clean energy sector, noting the shift from early hydro and solar dominance to economically viable wind, solar hybrid systems. However, he stressed that despite technological advancements, India’s environmental progress is being undercut by the persistent public health crisis in Delhi.&nbsp;Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/india-news/-there-actually-is-no-such-thing-as-waste-expert-tells-wion-sustainability-summit-on-how-earth-can-move-from-dustbin-to-recycling-hub-1764676002952">'There is no such thing as waste': Expert tells WION sustainability summit on how Earth can move from dustbin to recycling hub</a>&nbsp;Responding to a question on Delhi’s smog, the panel unanimously challenged the widely held belief that stubble burning in Punjab is the primary cause of the city’s pollution. “It’s easy to blame stubble burning, but industrial emissions and transportation are the year-round contributors,” said Mr. Kambaria, highlighting the disproportionate impact of factories and vehicles on Delhi’s air quality.&nbsp;Mr Kishor added that while stubble burning is seasonal, continuous industrial output and vehicle exhaust worsen air conditions throughout the year. Sharing a personal experience, Mr Kishore, an energy expert, recalled the severe pollution of Delhi in the 1980s and 90s before the government mandated CNG for public transport. “My eyes would burn on my motorcycle. My shirt would be covered in dirt,” he said. “CNG cleaned Delhi once. Now the next big leap must be electric vehicles.”&nbsp;Also Read: <a href="https://www.wionews.com/india-news/from-ai-to-genz-s-revolutionary-role-experts-discuss-future-of-recycling-at-wion-s-mission-sustainability-1764663118528">From AI to Gen Z’s ‘revolutionary’ role: Experts discuss ‘Future of Recycling’ at WION’s Mission Sustainability</a>&nbsp;According to him, slow-moving traffic and idling engines are major contributors to emissions, and improving traffic flow must become a top policy priority.&nbsp;Turning to energy infrastructure, Mr. Arshibhai said India’s grid is struggling to absorb the growing solar output. “India is generating surplus solar power in the daytime, but the grid cannot evacuate it efficiently,” he said, pointing out that the mismatch leads to wasted energy even as cities demand more power during peak hours. He noted that large-scale battery storage is essential to stabilise supply and support India’s clean energy expansion.&nbsp;The panel also emphasised the need for stricter enforcement of renewable energy obligations for industries. “Policies exist, but ensuring compliance is the real challenge,” said Mr Kishore, calling for clearer mandates and incentives for industries to shift to green hydrogen and biofuels. He also warned that India’s biofuel sector faces a shortage of reliable feedstock, which could slow its growth unless the government intervenes.&nbsp;Looking ahead, speakers agreed that India must upgrade its grid infrastructure, expand storage capacity, and enforce clean energy norms if it hopes to meet future sustainability targets. But the strongest message of the evening was reserved for Delhi’s air crisis. “We are at a crossroads,” Nathan said. “Delhi cannot wait until 2047 or 2050 for clean air. Immediate action is non-negotiable.” The panel concluded that without urgent measures targeting vehicle emissions, industrial pollution, and energy storage, Delhi’s smog will continue to endanger millions, undermining India’s broader sustainability ambitions.

Experts at WION’s Mission Sustainability share that Delhi’s pollution is driven more by industrial emissions and traffic than stubble burning, urging urgent action

As we are about to march into 2026, extreme climate events and human-caused global warming are exponentially increasing. To tackle the growing waste crisis and adapt to a warming planet, sustainable practices are essential—spanning everyday behaviour to global economic systems. Bringing together experts from across the world, the second WION Sustainability Summit convened in Delhi on Tuesday (Dec 2) to discuss climate challenges and potential solutions.&nbsp;At the third session of the summit, experts discussed multiple topics ranging from the global littering crisis, managing the waste problems, strong laws on waste and e-waste and human behaviour related to waste.&nbsp;Describing the fundamental truth about the global littering crisis, Shannon B. Olsson, Founder &amp; Global Director of the echo network, has noted that our planet doesn't have waste as it is created by humans that are used for their own use.&nbsp;"Solving the plastic puzzle. There actually is no such thing as waste. I am actually an ecologist. Our planet doesn't have waste. Everything that is used by a living thing is another source for a living being. It is a construct that our humanity has created, and that is why we are living beyond our boundaries," says Shannon B. Olsson, Founder &amp; Global Director, the echo network.

When questioned about the attempt to manage the problem we created, she responded that humans search for problems that don’t truly exist and the materials are not designed to be accessible or profitable, so businesses don’t feel responsible for solving them.&nbsp;“We’re facing a waste crisis, and many organisations are trying to fix it. But the real issue is the lack of accessibility and connection within the system. We search for problems that don’t truly exist—the materials are not designed to be accessible or profitable, so businesses don’t feel responsible. They simply don’t see waste management as affecting their bottom line," Olsson added.<h3>India's strong laws on waste and e-waste</h3>When asked about India's strong laws on waste and e-waste, but still gaps remain, Dr Suneel Pandey, the director of Circular Economy &amp; Waste Management Division at the think tank TERI, reacted that the rules exist, and if they were fully enforced, the problem would be far smaller.&nbsp;“There may be multiple reasons, starting with proper monitoring and compliance. The rules exist, and if they were fully enforced, the problem would be far smaller. A major weakness lies in regulatory capacity, monitoring compliance and training officials to implement the rules effectively," says Dr Suneel Pandey, the director of Circular Economy &amp; Waste Management Division at the think tank TERI.&nbsp;Answering the question about the behavioural, controlled or failure of enforcement, Ripudaman Singh Bevli, the National Sustainability Changemaker, said, "I think it's all of those. We have seen this generational. User behaviour is extremely important."&nbsp;When WION asked that behaviour changes be treated as a second option in terms of waste management, should it actually be a priority? Olsson responded that rather than individual level, everything must be looked at the systematic level.&nbsp;"Behaviour changes are not individual, but actually it's a cultural. Everything we need to look at the systematic level rather than only the individual level. The model, which is known as COM (Capability, opportunity and motivation), and ideas is that unless humans, communities and countries have all the Capability, opportunity and motivation for behaviour changes. It's not necessarily waste that is the problem, but solutions are out there. The communities need to be aware. People do care about the problem, but we don't make it easier opportunities for them. And accountability in this process is also more important," she added.

At the third session of the summit, experts discussed multiple topics ranging from the global littering crisis, managing the waste problems, strong laws on waste and e-waste and human behaviour related to waste.

At the third edition of the Mission Sustainability at Taj Mansingh, New Delhi, on Tuesday (Dec 2), experts highlighted the immediate need to find ways to recycle plastic at the session ‘Recycling for the Future’. During the session, WION’s Diksha Bisla emphasised the need for recycling plastic to sustain our planet for future generations. At the summit, experts discussed several topics ranging from recycling plastics, pollution, Artificial Intelligence and Gen Z’s role for a sustainable future.Aarti Khosla, Founder &amp; Director of Climate Trends, highlighted that the most urgent climate crisis that India is facing is heat stress. She added that the issue results in a significant loss of GDP for the nation.“The single most urgent climate crisis India is facing is heat stress. This is simply because of India’s geographical location and the fact that large parts of our population are exposed to extreme heat for most of the year,” she said. “The impact of heat stress on India can significantly affect the economy. The loss to India’s GDP due to heatwaves can range anywhere between 0.5 per cent and 1 per cent.”Speaking about the problem of pollution in Delhi, Dr Ruby Makhija, Founder, Why Waste Wednesdays Foundation and Community Sustainability Leader, said that stubble burning is a major problem in the country.

“I belong to Delhi, and I have seen the city's graph go down in the last few decades. I had this feeling that this is my city, and there is something I need to do for my city. I want a livable city. I think I strongly believe that we'll have to earn it for ourselves more than anything else,” said Dr Ruby Makhija, Founder, Why Waste Wednesdays Foundation; Community Sustainability Leader.She stressed that there is a need to look for sustainable ways to reuse stubble, such as for power plants. “Stubble should have been recycled,” she said, adding that it should be recycled in an organised way. She said that we have to adapt and make sure that the infrastructure is resilient to achieve the sustainability goals.Makhija also talked about Gen Z’s role in sustainability, saying that “What Gen Z has done is truly revolutionary.” She added, “They’ve made sustainability a cool concept. So if they think thrifting is cool, we should make sustainable retail more accessible.”Ashok Khosla, President, Hydropower Sustainability Alliance; former Chair, UN International Resource Panel, stressed that it is important to have strict legislation and laws that can help in making cleaner solutions for the environment. He added that creating livelihoods that are green will play a vital role.During the session, the future possibility of artificial intelligence (AI) replacing jobs was also discussed. Ashok Khosla said, “The history of technological change shows that although new tech seems to threaten jobs. They tend to create new ones. It is true from typewriter to computer and every tech change. I personally don't think AI will be displacing more people than it creates jobs for. There would be opportunities for people who respect them.”

From AI to Gen Z’s ‘revolutionary’ role: Experts discuss ‘Future of Recycling’ at WION’s Mission Sustainability

Ramveer Tanwar made it a mission to revive the ponds of India. Attending the WION Sustainability summit on Monday (Dec 2), the social activist known as the "Pond Man of India" said the event is a wake-up call, particularly for the youth. He said that the Indian capital Delhi, which is choking under pollution with air quality index hovering from ‘very poor’ to ‘severe,’ is a good example of the need for sustainable development.Delhi is an example of that, while we are doing development, &nbsp;it could not be done without depstrying natural resources. “Today, every person is struggling to take breath. We can't inhale without wearing masks. Someone or the other is sick in each household. Everyone is suffering from breathing ailments. It is because, whatever development we have done so far, could not be called sustainable,” he said.The youth, in particular, should understand this issue, Ramveer noted. “If we fail to do sustainable development in future, their lives will become more critical, time by time. There is still time,” he added.&nbsp;“Nobody is stopping us from enjoying or living our lives, or making a lot of new inventions. Let us innovate a lot, live life to the fullest, and do development. But along with that, let us take care of our environment and natural resources,” he suggested."Sustainability in the last 15-20 years has become a very popular word. It means that we live our life so that our natural resources do not deplete," he said, adding, &nbsp;"It is the need of the hour because sustainable development is not happening.&nbsp;Events like WION summit are for regularly knocking on these facts. , so that youth are aware of these things, Ramveer added.<h2>Ramveer Tanwar's contribution to sustainable development</h2>Ramveer left his corporate job to focus on cleaning ponds, often diving in to them to clean these water bodies. The environmentalist has revived at least 80 ponds and other water bodies across India's seven states.

Attending the WION Sustainability summit 2025, Ramveer Tanwar urged youth to embrace sustainable development. The Pond Man of India said Delhi’s pollution shows the cost of harming nature. Here is what he said



Ramveer Tanwar made it a mission to revive the ponds of India. Attending the WION Sustainability summit on Monday (Dec 2), the social activist known as the "Pond Man of India" said the event is a wake-up call, particularly for the youth. He said that the Indian capital Delhi, which is choking under pollution with air quality index hovering from ‘very poor’ to ‘severe,’ is a good example of the need for sustainable development. Delhi is an example of that, while we are doing development, it could not be done without depstrying natural resources. “Today, every person is struggling to take breath. We can't inhale without wearing masks. Someone or the other is sick in each household. Everyone is suffering from breathing ailments. It is because, whatever development we have done so far, could not be called sustainable,” he said. The youth, in particular, should understand this issue, Ramveer noted. “If we fail to do sustainable development in future, their lives will become more critical, time by time. There is still time,” he added. “Nobody is stopping us from enjoying or living our lives, or making a lot of new inventions. Let us innovate a lot, live life to the fullest, and do development. But along with that, let us take care of our environment and natural resources,” he suggested. "Sustainability in the last 15-20 years has become a very popular word. It means that we live our life so that our natural resources do not deplete," he said, adding, "It is the need of the hour because sustainable development is not happening. Events like WION summit are for regularly knocking on these facts. , so that youth are aware of these things, Ramveer added. Ramveer Tanwar's contribution to sustainable development Ramveer left his corporate job to focus on cleaning ponds, often diving in to them to clean these water bodies. The environmentalist has revived at least 80 ponds and other water bodies across India's seven states. His social organisation, Say Earth, and the Jal Chaupal campaign are engaged in promoting water conservation. Ramveer also developed or revived more than 50 urban forests through his network of volunteers. He has won honours, including the Karmaveer Chakra Award, as well as recognition and praise from Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Uttar Pradesh government.

Delhi's toxic air proves we need sustainable development, warns ‘Pond man of India’ Ramveer at WION Sustainability Summit

WION returns with the third edition of Mission Sustainability and in the first session titled “Solving the Plastic Puzzle”, WION's Molly Gambhir talks about the massive plastic problem plaguing the Earth. Providing meaningful insights on the topic are Ramveer Tanwar, widely known as The Pondman of India, whose restoration work has revived dying water bodies across the country; Vimlendu Jha, environmentalist and Executive Director of Swechha India, who has spent decades pushing for policy accountability and youth-driven climate action; and Bharati Chaturvedi, Founder and Director of Chintan, whose work emphasizes waste justice and the role of informal workers in sustainable systems.&nbsp;Speaking directly about the problem, Bharati Chaturvedi stated that the only true solution for the crisis&nbsp;is to reduce plastic use, adding that recycling is merely a delaying tactic. “There is only one solution, that is to reduce the use of plastic. Recycling is a delaying tactic,” Chaturvedi&nbsp;said. Highlighting that citizens should protest against the use of plastics not only at home but also against the policymakers and celebrities.&nbsp;

Ramveer Tanwar, widely known as The Pondman of India, highlighted a critical gap in the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) framework, noting that those working at the grassroots level receive no economic benefit, making the policy ineffective on the ground. EPR is a system that holds producers accountable for the environmental impact of their products throughout their entire lifecycle, including post-consumer waste. He said that “Those who do not know the term sustainable are more sustainable and there carbon footprints are lesser than the one who knows what sustainability means.”&nbsp;

Highlighting that the ban on single-use plastic is not implemented, Vimlendu Jha, environmentalist and Executive Director of Swechha India said, “I am not saying that we should be 100% plastic free, but we can be plastic responsible, and that is the real challenge.” He also pointed out that plastic problem is an “institutional crisis” and not an individual's "behavioural issue." “Idea of a great nation has to be understanding of what should be sustainable,” he said. “Alternative to plastic is no plastic because as I said, safest plastic are the ones that has not been manufactured.”

Tanwar also stressed the power of community action, saying, “We need to create lakhs of Pond Warriors who can take the initiative to clean our ponds. If you have collected 5 kg of plastic in a year, it’s equivalent to having cleaned one pond.” Sharing a sharper critique, Jha called out corporate responsibility, stating, “You can't choke my water body and try to become the richest corporation in the world,” and further questioning global accountability: “The richest man in the world is the biggest producer of plastic in the world. Is it okay if they flood our river bodies? Eighty percent of our water bodies are terrible?” Adding to the discussion, Chaturvedi underscored the core solution: “The real thing is to reduce plastics. All of the things we do—make our homes and offices plastic-free—these are just practices for the main thing.”<h2>Mission Sustainability: No Action, Not an Option</h2>The event brings together global leaders, experts, and innovators to accelerate action aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The remaining session are ‘Recycling for the Future’, ‘Do Not Waste’ at 3:00 PM, and ‘EVs: Electrifying the Global Ecosystem’ at 4:00 PM, concluding with ‘Alternative Energy: Models of Sustainability’ at 5:00 PM. The day will culminate with a keynote address at 6:00 PM by Chief Guest Shri Nitin Gadkari, India’s Union Minister of Road Transport &amp; Highways. Supported by Zee Media — India’s largest news network — the initiative reinforces WION's commitment to fostering solutions, collaboration and accountability in the global sustainability movement.

WION’s Mission Sustainability opened with a session on the global plastic crisis, featuring experts Ramveer Tanwar, Vimlendu Jha, and Bharati Chaturvedi. The panel stressed cutting plastic use over recycling, stronger policy action, and shared responsibility to build a sustainable future.
