Gaurav Burman- VP & APAC President, 75F, India

“Earth is our home planet, and it supports over 7 billion people. According to the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), humans are depleting the planet’s natural resources, and living standards will begin to fall by 2030 unless quick action is taken. If we continue to overexploit natural resources, we will require 2.5 planets to meet our needs by 2050. Earth Overshoot day, in 2021, fell on July 29 and this year it would come sooner than that. The rise in energy usage has been one of the major worries all over the world. We must use it wisely and sustainably. Customers increasingly want products to have low carbon footprints and consume as little energy as possible, making energy efficiency one of the tropical trends in automobile, appliance, and equipment design.

 This year’s Earth Day theme is ‘Investing in the Planet.’ As a result, the emphasis is on constructing structures and systems that conserve and preserve natural resources while still serving human requirements. Green building design emphasises low energy consumption and as much reliance as possible on natural light and ambient circumstances. As a building automation company, we make certain that our clients benefit from long-term building maintenance, regardless of their infrastructure. We urge our nation to come ahead and contribute to lowering pollution, using minimal energy, and saving our planet from resource depletion.”

Nitish Rai, CEO and Co-Founder, FreightFox

“Transportation contributes about 27% of all CO2 emissions in the country. The biggest challenge with respect to transportation related emissions for industries (also known as the Scope 3 emissions) is the ability to measure and report it. At Freightfox we are empowering companies to be able to measure and more importantly control their Scope 3 emissions in real time.

We have also launched a new program to incentivise transporters for placing greener vehicles. The transporters benefit the most when they deploy EVs or CNG vehicles. FreightFox is creating a green ecosystem in its effort to make the earth more livable for each one of us.”
