GSBF aim to install 7500 LED based solar lighting systems per month and 15,000 per month by 2009. The program also aims to cover countries of South Asia and Africa Light and darkness are not only associated with day and night but in the modern world also symbolizes growth, prosperity, a sign of coming out of ages and moving forward. Nowadays our lives don't stop when evening arrives. Life moves at the same pace brightly illuminated under the man made light and power. But then that’s picture perfect for a small part of people in cities. Life comes to a grueling halt for millions of people as the evening arrives. We have been able to expand our power production and our network was never bigger than this, but still many parts of the world still rely on kerosene or oil lamps to scarcely light their houses.

In a major forestation project in the Chinese province of Guangxi, managers are using market instruments to fight climate change. The latest U.N. climate report published by the United Nations paints a bleak picture of the planet's future. By 2100, the temperature could rise by up to 6.4 degrees. The ice at the polar caps and in Greenland would melt, the sea level would rise by up to 59 centimeters, many coastal regions would be flooded, and entire islands would disappear. Long periods of drought would cause severe famine resulting in thousands of deaths. Nearly all scientists agree that climate gases and especially carbon dioxide produced by humans are responsible for the greenhouse effect and rising temperatures.
