According to a study by CEEW India, hot temperatures, low humidity & increased dry spells because of #ClimatChange has caused #ForestFires in #India to rise 10 fold between 2000 to 2019. Climate-proofing forests is the need of the hour. We need long-term mitigation and adaptation policies that will include smart technologies to curtail losses from forest fires. In the short term, we need robust disaster management plans, risk assessment, and forest-fire only alert systems. #ClimateChange #SaveOurForests

Going to a renowned #Tourist attraction in India is often a formidable experience, but that's not the case in #Madurai. The streets encircling the famous #MeenakshiTemple have been converted into a #pedestrian-friendly zone by ensuring shaded roads, banning vehicles, introducing battery-operated cars, putting in paver blocks, moving storm water drains and trenches for electricity cables under the pavement. This bold move of banning vehicles has been relished by the public as pedestrians can now walk hassle-free around the temple. Picture credit: ITDP
