Promoting Greener Future by using Renewable Energy

INTRODUCTION  Over a century,the progress of the world has been powered by coal,oil and gas—the energy sources which fuel industries,built cities and connect the globe. But everything comes with a cost, the progress made by industries, urban cities led to the emissions of carbon,global warming and ecological destruction.  Nowadays, as changes in climate is on peak,the world stands at a turning point. The question arises that we should switch to renewable energy or not,the answer lies in the fact that how fast can we make this transition because it is essential to shift towards renewable energy sources. From using fossil fuels to cleaner energy sources like solar,wind and hydropower is necessary for revolutionizing and reshaping our economies,communities and future.

As we know that everything comes with challenges too,so innovative ideas are...

Chemistry and Everyday Life

INTRODUCTION  The topic Chemistry can be described as the "central science" because of a very good reason which is its ability to connect physics with biology,geology with environmental science and art with technology. But still,most of the people think that chemistry is something which only happens in laboratories with bubbling beakers and complex equations. However, the truth lies in the fact that chemistry is everywhere. It is considered as an invisible force which shapes every moment of our lives,from the food we eat to the emotions we feel. Sup In this blog post,we'll know about the chemical reactions which underlie the most ordinary aspects of our daily routine life and understanding them will eventually deepen our appreciation about the role of chemistry played in the world around us. Let's look into the reactions of chemistry in our routine life.  The Chemistry of Breathing It can be said that every breath we take is a masterpiece of ...
