An article of critical importance, as it will be a wakeup call for all readers and very skillfully written and presented. We have been made increasingly aware of the perils of climate change due to the rampant exploitation of vulnerable areas and resources; and a callous attitude towards commercial gains but this write up has methodically highlighted key points of the disaster ahead and more importantly the positive steps being taken by financial institutions and their governance by apex bodies to make a significant impact on steering the world towards environmental protection and transformation into a more climate friendly approach. Even the areas of immediate focus have been mentioned with figures. An eye opener that has left far more aware on the subject. Thank you Anil and keep enlightening us.
Thank you so much. So glad that you caught all the points so perfectly. Actually India needs to do much more. Unfortunately, the crisis is almost upon us and hence the urgency that much greater. Looking forward to your continued participation.
You are absolutely correct as climate and geopolitics have hit agricultural output, food self sufficency and economic growth of countries.
A premature and abnormally long heatwave this year seriously damaged India's wheat crop. Large parts of India's rice growing region are staring at shortfall in rice output, again due to climate change.
The food security situation would have been far worse if India did not have strategic food reserves and buffer stocks.
While the farmers face the worst effects of climate crisis, a large section of them are contributing to harming the environment, even if it is done inadvertently. The farmers have to be informed and educated about the importance of environmental sustainability.
Thank you as always for your participation. You are spot on. But not just out farmers other stakeholders too need to align with the new reality, one in which everyone's aspirations are equal.
