Question

Which non-conventional energy source is recommended for use in rural areas to cut deforestation, reduce air pollution, and provide clean fuel along with organic fertiliser?

पर्याय

• Wind power and solar energy

• Mini-hydel plants and CNG

• LPG and gobar gas

• Photovoltaic cells and neem-based pesticides

Answer 1

LPG and gobar gas are specifically recommended for rural areas because they reduce deforestation by decreasing dependence on firewood, lower air pollution through cleaner combustion, provide clean cooking fuel, and generate organic fertiliser from slurry, supporting both environmental and agricultural sustainability.
