        Green India Mission (GIM)
        The National Mission for a Green India (GIM) is one of eight missions in India's action plan to address the issues of climate
        change. GIM aims to conserve, restore and expand forest cover. It combines strategies for ecosystems, biodiversity,
        water, biomass, maintaining mangroves, wetlands, and key habitats, as well as services such as fuel, feed, timber, and
        non-wood forest products (fruits, flowers, seeds, herbs, honey, etc).


        National Solar Mission
        National Solar Mission aims to address India's energy needs in a sustainable manner. It aspires to make India a
        global leader in solar energy (a renewable form of energy, as opposed to coal, petroleum and other fossil fuels).
        Along with energy and environmental preservation, the Solar Mission supports local energy production and
        delivery. The Solar Mission has been a success in Diu, which became India's first Union Territory to switch to 100%
        solar energy.
        The  transition  to  solar  energy  has  also  aided  in  the  reduction  of  electricity  bills  for  its  citizens.  Solar  power
        plants have been erected over 50 acres in one of India's least populous UTs, with a geographical span of only 42
        kilometres. On a daily basis, the UT generates a total of 13 megawatts of power through solar power generation
        plants. Rooftop solar plants produced roughly 3 megawatts (MW), while other solar power plants produced 10
        megawatts (MW).
