My Clean City by HCLFoundation, is actively transforming Noida through its “Clean Oorja Project”. This initiative addresses the pressing issue of untreated cow dung at gaushalas, which poses significant health and environmental risks. To tackle this challenge, the project has established two biogas plants. The impact of the Clean Oorja Project is profound across three key areas : 1. It promotes community health by mitigating the dangers associated with untreated cow dung, thereby reducing the spread of diseases and enhancing environmental cleanliness. 2. The project provides substantial economic relief to local families living near gaushalas. By offering clean biogas free of charge, it alleviates the financial burden of purchasing costly cooking fuels like LPG cylinders. 3. The two biogas plants are jointly preventing GHG emissions of 250 to 300 tonnes per annum. A potential threat to water pollution has also been averted. #HCLFoundation #BiogasPlants #MyCleanCity #CleanEnergy #CleanCooking
