GOAL 7: ENSURE ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Forest cover has increased to 21.02 percent and protected areas cover to about 4.83 percent of the country’s total land area. Reducing the energy intensity of GDP growth through higher energy efficiency will be the key to achieving energy security.India is on-track in achieving the MDG target for sustainable access to safe drinking water. The overall proportion of households having access to improved water sources increased from 68.2 percent in 1992-93 to 84.4 percent in 2007-08.
However India, which is one of the most densely populated countries in the world, has not recorded similar progress in improving sanitation facilities over the last decade. The proportion of households without toilet facilities declined from 70 percent in 1992-93 to about 51 percent in 2007-08. At current progress, the country is unlikely to achieve the target of reducing the proportion of households having no access to sanitation to 38 percent by 2015.
