New Delhi, Jul 8 (IBNS): The Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, Anil Madhav Dave, inaugurated the Conference on Clean and Green Transport for Delhi NCR â€“ Alternatives and Solutionsâ€ on Friday in New Delhi.

The minister strongly emphasised the need to adopt the three-fold ‘mantra’ of “Sun, Cycle and Saving” in the energy sector for clean and green energy.

He said that solar energy is the energy of the future. More Research & Development (R&D) needs to be done on solar energy as it will revolutionise the energy sector.

The Minister said cycling is not only the best mode of transport for short distances but also has many health benefits.

He also said that energy should not be used carelessly, as energy saved is energy produced.

He added that individuals must lead by example in saving energy and also stated that non-practising environmentalists and non-practising scientists were not required.

The Minister pointed out that those involved in R&D must keep in mind the difference between the success achieved in laboratories and success while implementing solutions on the roads.
