you have mentioned agriculture and dairy farming among the causes of air pollution. haven't mentioned anything about animal slaughtering. Which one is more polluting agriculture and dairy farming on one side and slaughter houses on other side ?
One interesting development is the recent roll back by the Govt on installation of FGD equipments in thermal power plants in India. They seem to be relying on some reports which state installation of such equipments will achieve the contrary. This has been challenged by few experts. In addition to the investments that are now stuck, it also highlights an additional risk that businesses face
From the second piece on air pollution - “If air pollution is not aggressively controlled and managed, its costs could undermine India's plans to increase its economy to $5 trillion by 2024.”
Hey Bipin, thanks for highlighting this, it was a miss from our side. Have rectified it to reflect that the goal is now for next year (ideally). We're at a bit over 4 trillion now.
Article on repo rate seems a bit repetitive in narrative, the last para is what is needed. Big fan of daily brief but this one didn't satisfy.. 🤐

Thanks for the suggestions. For now we are focussing on really building one in JP Nagar, Bangalore. Hopefully we soon scale to other cities too :)
