Source summary
Create a web app for Indian coal mines quantifying emissions by activity, per-capita estimates and existing carbon sinks, then analysing their gap. Use established emission factors and simulate options including cleaner vehicles, methane capture, renewable energy and state-specific afforestation land needs. Include potential carbon-credit estimates, trend visualisations and support for underground/open-cast mines of different sizes. These are planning scenarios, not certified offsets or achieved neutrality.
