India presided over the G20 Summit and hosted the event in New Delhi this year, and it is a proud moment for the country. The summit, which will took place between September 9 and 10, 2023 at Pragati Maidan, now known as the Bharat Mandapam International Exhibition-Convention Centre (IECC), came leaders of the world’s richest and most powerful countries come together to discuss a range of issues.
Last year, the G20 Summit was hosted by Indonesian President Joko Widodo in Bali. This year, it is India’s turn to shine as the host nation. The country has been preparing for this event for months, and it is an honor to welcome world leaders to our shores.
The G20 Summit has expanded on topics from economics and finance to include climate change, sustainable energy, debt relief, and multinational corporation taxation. These critical issues affect us all and require global cooperation and action.
The issues outlined below have been adopted by the government of India and are collectively termed “Panchamrit.” These are ambitious goals that reflect our commitment to sustainability and our responsibility towards future generations.
- Non-fossil fuel usage up to 500 GW by 2030.
- Renewable resources usage up to 50%.
- Reduction of carbon emission.
- Reduction of carbon intensity by less than 45%.
- Achieving net zero carbon emission by 2070.
In line with these global concerns, we at Krushika Farming Community have also addressed a few of these issues. Here’s our distinctive stance on the “Panchamrit”.
- We have successfully transformed 500 acres of previously barren land into productive farmland, and our ambitious goal is to convert an additional 2000 acres into farmland by 2030.
- Our vision extends beyond the city of Bangalore; we aspire to provide over 10 satellite villages by 2030 to benefit both the residents of Bangalore and the surrounding natural environment.
- Recognizing Bangalore’s bustling urban environment, we aim to offer our citizens a tranquil yet conveniently accessible place to work.
- We are committed to develop a community near Bangalore that would provide the highest quality, nutritionally rich food, cultivated specifically for our members, ensuring sustenance for generations to come.
- Beyond offering a place of serenity, we are dedicated to creating a sustainable community with ecological and financial well-being of our members.
Kudos to India for hosting the G20 Summit, an initiative that carries the promise of substantial benefits, both within India and on a global scale.
