Yesterday Delhi govt winter pollution plan kicked in. But is pollution control about work stoppage, which inconveniences people and is impossible to enforce? I ask this as one of the architects of the Graded Response Action Plan (GRAP). My plea is that GRAP was never a substitute for year long tough action, which it has become today sadly.

At the 6th Kisan Swaraj Sammelan for Eastern and North Eastern India, being held in Kolkata from October 29–31, CSE Director General @sunitanar spoke about the importance of soil health and the need to ensure food production remains economically viable without harming the environment.

She also spoke on the Indian perspective on climate change, addressing farmers, students and researchers on the challenges India faces.

The inaugural session brought together Seno Tsuhah, food sovereignty activist from Nagaland; Dr Srijit Mishra, economist from Hyderabad; and Pushpa Khairwar, seed conservator from Bihar. @kkuruganti, co-convenor of the Alliance for Sustainable and Holistic Agriculture (ASHA), was also present.

The Sammelan brings together participants from across India to discuss sustainable agriculture and food sovereignty.

The Himalayas are sending us a message, loud and clear. But are we listening?
As floods and landslides devastate the region, Sunita Narain @sunitanar warns that climate change and reckless development are turning fragile mountains into disaster zones.
“We really believe that we can continue to do what we do, without consequences.”
Change your mindset. Change or perish.

IN MEMORIAM:

📌Climate change experts and activists in the country have called the passing of @makrishna, a Professor at the Centre for Atmospheric Sciences (CAS), Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi (IIT Delhi), a ‘major loss to Indian climate science’.

📌AchutaRao was a ‘pillar of climate science in India’, whose contributions to attribution science and championing the rights of communities made vulnerable due to the rising threat of climate change would never be forgotten, they told @down2earthindia.
