- Carbon dioxide causes environmental pollution and is a main source of global warming.
- The carbon compounds emitted heavily from the factories cause global warming and bring climate change.
- Chennai ICF, a Public-Sector Undertaking has completely reduced the amount of carbon emissions.
- Electricity requirement for ICF is achieved by wind and solar energy.
- Steps has been taken to produce 10.5 MW of electricity by windmills and 2.4 MW of electricity by solar energy.
- Further, the office and premises in ICF are illuminated by LED bulbs.
- Along with this, the lubrication used in the industry has been significantly reduced resulting in reduced carbon emission from the ICF.
- Furthermore, a large number of saplings are planted and maintained to contain high levels of pollution and heat in the premises.
- Integral Coach Factory (ICF) located at Perambur in Chennai has become the first railway organisation to achieve carbon-neutral status.
