As temperatures rise, pollution doesn’t just increase, it becomes more harmful. Heat and sunlight can turn everyday emissions into gases like Ground-level ozone, while trapping them closer to where we live and breathe.

Climate change can worsen air quality, making it even more important to cut pollution at the source and protect public health.

Most consumers glance at a label for the price and move on. But the information printed on a package is the foundation of your legal protection. It determines whether a product can be traced, whether its claims can be verified, and whether someone can be held responsible if harm occurs.

When details are missing, unclear, or misleading, the issue is not cosmetic — it affects your rights.

Increased noise pollution is an unseen but much heard consequence of speeding. At higher speeds,your engine and tyres are louder and the aerodynamic noise of your vehicles contributes to noise pollution. An increase in speed by 10 km/hr can increase the noise level by more than 1 decibel for each vehicle passing! 

Noise takes away your peace of mind, and negatively impacts both mental and physical health. Drive slow, drive smooth.

Despite the Chennai One app offering several unique features not found in other applications, there are still areas that require attention. Users have reported that MTC buses occasionally display incorrect QR codes and sometimes encounter issues when generating tickets. To assist the passengers, the transport staffs needs to be trained on how to use this app.  Furthermore, tickets cannot be cancelled if they are no longer needed, resulting in potential financial loss.

CAG, in collaboration with TNSEDA, organised a Solar Mela in Adyar. The event featured expert sessions on rooftop solar (RTS), direct interactions with vendors, and engaging competitions for children on renewable energy themes.

April Fool’s jokes last a day, but scams happen all year—often through something as simple as a phone call. Sharing personal or financial details with an unknown caller can put you at serious risk, even if it seems harmless in the moment. 

Increased maintenance is an unseen consequence of speeding! 
Tyres and roads wear out faster at higher speeds leading to frequent tyre-changes and recurring road construction. Tyre and surface wear also releases more heavy metals and microplastics. These particles don’t just go away, but find their way into our food and water.
