Introducing the U.B.C Car

At present, all automobile companies are in the race to develop and advertise the most ideal type of car, a car that is efficient in saving both fuel and money. Taking this perspective, it is perceived that universities are not far behind in developing a model of their known. In particular, the University of British Columbia displayed a car that is nevertheless evidently compact but also is a 'Shell' sponsored vehicle that holds great potential for a high degree of fuel consumption, and consequently producing a positive effect upon the environment of BC.

Energy Subsidies

India has historically subsidized energy with the objective of protecting its consumers from international price volatility and providing energy access for its citizens, especially the poor. However, energy subsidies place a heavy burden on government budgets, while often failing to reach their targeted beneficiaries.

In addition to forming a large part of government expenditure in India, subsidies for energy have a tremendous impact on the lives of citizens. At the most immediate level, these subsidies affect how much people pay for energy. However, digging deeper reveals that they have a profound effect on the environments in which people live and the economies in which they earn their living.
