INDIA-ENVIROMENT-POLLUTION-EARTH DAY

Indian labourers drill holes in a quarry wall to insert dynamite in Kadaganahalli village on the outskirts of Indian IT capital Bangalore on April 21, 2010. Stone quarrying is a small-scale, labour-intensive industry mainly catering the railways, road construction and maintenance, housing and infrastructure projects. India, with its 1.2 billion citizens, faces challenges from rapid urbanisation and industrialisation, such as pollution, sanitation and water supply, as well as degradation of forests and agricultural lands, and is already the world's fifth largest carbon emitter despite a low per capita share. April 22 marks the 40th Earth Day, which urges local action and increased awareness to understand and respect the environment.
