Our Environment and its Components
Man is surrounded by various life forms, forces and conditions- both physical and biological. Sunlight, land, air and water form physical conditions whereas all the plants, animals, and microorganisms form biological conditions.
Occupations and Work
An activity that serves as one’s regular source of livelihood is called as occupation
Conditions of Power Supply in Jharkhand
Everyone has stated experiencing heat with the start of changes in season. Everyone has started feeling need of fans, air conditioners, coolers and refrigerators. Walking of people outside houses has become still due to partial lockdown of corona phase 2 lockdown. Under these conditions people need electricity supply for rest and recreation.
Biomass Energy and its implications
The dry weight of organic matter produced by plants, their derivatives and wastes are called as BIOMASS. The biomass includes crop residues, plant parts, body parts of dead animals and animal wastes. As biomass is created due to photosynthesis by plants, so energy from biomass or bio wastes is regarded as another form of solar energy.
HEC to make Wind Turbines
