A Comparative Study to Assess the Attitude Regarding Women Empowerment among Adult Population in Selected Area of Ambala, Haryana
Abstract: If women in the developing world do not have equal rights, they will not have equal health. It is as simple as that; the empowerment of women is not a politically correct cliché [1], but a living, essential goal for everyone. Women perform 66% of the world’s work, and produce 50% of the food, yet earn only 10% of the income and own 1% of the property. Whether the issue …

Think of Rural Energy Resources and Biorefineries
Abstract: With the growing population, global energy demand has also increased drastically. Energy demand of the emerging economies had almost 100% growth during last decade. However, energy consumption growth has been below average throughout the globe except North America (BPSR, 2014). Interestingly, the energy consumption of EU has reducing trend and last year it has been the lowest since 1995. The growing energy demand is linked environmental degradation contributing greenhouse gases …
