बीबीसी साझा सवाल

आफ्नै गाउँमा जलविद्युत परियोजना बन्दा के साँच्चै फाइदा हुन्छ त? देशभरि जलविद्युत उत्पादनको प्रचुर क्षमता छ भनिदाँ त्यस्ता जलविद्युत परियोजनाबाट स्थानीय बासिन्दाहरुले के फाइदा लिन सक्छन् त? रसुवाको धुन्चेमा निर्माण गरिएको यो साझा सवालमा चिलिमे जलविद्युत परियोजनालाई सफल परियोजना बनाउन योगदान पुर्याउनुभएका यसका प्रमुख योजनाकार डा. डम्मर नेपाली र विद्युत विकास विभागका उपमहानिर्देशक डा. सञ्जय शर्मा हुनुहुन्छ ।

Interview with Energy Minister of Nepal;Gokarna Bista

RAMESH PRASAD BHUSHAL
Within one and half month of his tenure, Energy Minister Gokarna Bista has brought about some revolutionary changes in the country’s power sector . Breaking the political appointment system, Minister Bista established a new mechanism of appointing the Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) Managing Director on competitive basis. Many believe political appointments  are a major hindrance to development of NEA. Apart from this NEA’s financial status is pitiful with cumulative losses standing at Rs 20 billion. Minister Bista also turned another stoneby resolving financial matters for Upper Tamakoshi hydro project (456 MW) worth about Rs 32 billion. Bista now has numerous proposals at hand. Lately, he signed a memorandum of understanding with Employees Provident Fund (EPF) worth Rs 16 billion for construction of four hydro projects of nearly 200 MW under the Chilime Hydropower Company— an NEA subsidiary company. A new institution — Hydropower Development and Investment Public Limited Company with proposed capital share of more than Rs 30 billion— specifically for investment in hydropower is all set to take off. He Spoke to Ramesh Prasad Bhushal of The Himalayan Times.

Ecology is economics

PAAVAN MATHEMA
Sunday 5 June is World Environment Day, and to mark it there will be a rush to organise neighbourhood cleaning campaigns, tree plantations and numerous seminars and conferences. But hanging the 'green' tag needs to go beyond 5 June, it has to be year-round way to thinking. Sustainable lifestyles and an ecological consciousness doesn't just save the planet, it also makes business sense. Being ecological is economical.

The best way to do this is to promote green jobs: work opportunities that explore ways to preserve and restore the environment and at the same time are economically viable. Green jobs offer a hybrid solution to address problem of unemployment and environment sustainability, linking the twin goals of reducing poverty and protecting the environment.

The transition to a low-carbon economy presents employment opportunities by opening new markets, and by stimulating eco-innovation and investment in more efficient production techniques. Prospects for creating green jobs can be developed in entirely new ideas or in finding ways in which the existing businesses can be made environmentally friendly.
