Green GDP
Chhattisgarh became the first state to link forest ecosystems with Green GDP
Green GDP
Green GDP is calculated by subtracting the cost of natural resource depletion and ecosystem degradation from Net Domestic Product (NDP).
Gross Environment Product (GEP)
GEP is a method to assess ecological status by assigning monetary value to the products and services that ecosystems provide, including provisioning, regulating, and cultural services.
Uttarakhand is the first state in India to launch a Gross Environment Product Index(GEPI) in 2024 .

๐Mosura fentoni
โ Lived around 506 million years ago, during the Cambrian period.
โ Classification: Belongs to Radiodonta, an extinct lineage of early arthropods that also includes Anomalocaris.
Size: Approximately the length of an adult human index finger.
โ Eyes: Possessed three eyes-two lateral and one prominent central eye-providing advanced visual capabilities for its time.
โ Trunk-Like Body: Elongated body with swimming flaps along the sides for propulsion, similar to the movement of modern rays.
โ Abdomen-Like Region: Unique among radiodonts, Mosura fentoni had a segmented rear section comprising 16 tightly packed segments, each lined with gills.
โ This structure likely enhanced its respiratory efficiency and is considered an example of evolutionary convergence with modern arthropods such as horseshoe crabs and insects.
โ Respiration: Breathed through gills located at the posterior end of its body, a feature not previously seen in related species.

๐What is PBAT?
โ Kamalpur Nagar Panchayat in Tripura has introduced compostable bags made from PBAT as a sustainable alternative to single-use plastic (SUP).
๐What is PBAT?
โ PBAT (Polybutylene Adipate Terephthalate) is a biodegradable thermoplastic polymer used as an eco-friendly substitute for traditional plastics.
โ It is a copolymer of adipic acid, 1,4-butanediol, and terephthalic acid and can be processed using conventional plastic manufacturing methods.
โ PBAT is often blended with other biopolymers to enhance its mechanical and barrier properties
๐Properties of PBAT
โ 100% compostable โ breaks down into water, COโ, and biomass under industrial composting conditions within 180 days.
โ Flexible and tough, making it ideal for bags, films, and packaging.
โ It is moisture-resistant, chemically inert, and offers good barrier properties.
