00:00In India, as people get prosperous, one of the first things that they want in their homes is more air conditioners.
00:05So, let's say we have a young one in the family who has been sensitized in the school or in the college about the enormity of climate.
00:12So, he raises his hands up and he says, no, nothing doing, we cannot have so many ACs and it's not good for the climate.
00:18The elder sister comes in and says, look, technology has brought in this new AC with a five-star rating and it consumes far lesser power.
00:27Now, that brings us a false sense of complacency.
00:31The numbers have increased so very exponentially that the total emission count is nowhere close to what we used to have in the 70s or 80s.
00:41So, in spite of better and greener and more efficient technologies on the net, we stand very poorly compared to where we did even four decades back.
