The objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of various interventions aimed at reducing the levels of indoor air pollution in homes that use biomass fuels in the rural and urban settings of Andhra Pradesh on the basis of health risks and reductions in greenhouse gas emissions by applying CHRA (comparative health risk assessment) procedures. The CHRA process seeks to rank various technological options available to reduce emissions and exposure so as to provide the basis for resource allocation for mitigating these problems.

India is a water-stressed country and by the year 2025, it might fall in the category of water-scarce countries (Ministry of Water Resources, 2004). According to the World Health Organization, almost two-thirds of the global population without access to improved and safe water supply lives in Asia. Of this, about 25% live in India. In Delhi alone, groundwater depletion of more than 10-15 m has taken place in the past ten years and more than 20% of the annual health cases reported arise as a result of bacteriological contamination in drinking water.

The objecitve is to enhance the production of oil wells. TERI in collaboration with the ISR (Institute of Reservoir Studies), ONGC, have jointly developed a thermophilic, barophilic anaerobic bacterial consortium for enhancing oil recovery in dead or abandoned oil wells. With the application of this thermophilic anaerobic bacterial consortium, 21% enhanced oil recovery from live oil-bearing core rocks was obtained under simulated conditions in selected oil wells in Gujarat oilfields.
