T
he aims of presentation consist of green energy,
global poverty and hunger were study in order
to find out the most cheapest and economical
sources of green energy for poverty alleviation in
South Asia like Pakistan. Green energy is also called
renewable energy or sustainable energy, comes
from natural sources like wind, water, sunlight,
rains, tides, plants, algae and geothermal heat.
South Asia comprises the countries of Pakistan,
Bangladesh, India, Bhutan, Maldives, Nepal, and
Sri-Lanka. South Asia is about one fifth of the
world’s population, which is considered as the
most densely populated region in the world. As per
study, the resources in South Asia are limited and
the population increases from time to time. The
second problem in South Asia is the concentration
of non-renewable energy, which are very costly
although a great potential of green energy like
biomass, biofuels, hydropower, solar, landfill gas,
wind and geothermal are available in difference
countries of the world like South Asia. Similarly
many countries in the world are striving to utilize
green energy in an efficient way to replace the cost
of furnace oil, gas and other costly fuel used for
non-renewable energy. The study further showed
that about 1.4 billion peoples are lack of electricity
in the world population of 7 billion and nearly
one billion peoples go to bed hungry each night
particularly in the developing countries like South
Asia, as per report recorded by the World Bank. It
was concluded from the study that green energy
should be commercialized to reduced energy
crises, increase income, employment, create
more jobs, stranger economy as well as to reduce
poverty in South Asia like Pakistan.
