| 2 | Detailed Article on Western Ghats:
β‘οΈThe Central Government is moving to finalize the demarcation of Ecologically Sensitive Areas (ESAs) in a phased, state-wise manner, starting with states like Gujarat where consensus has been achieved.
β‘οΈThe Madhav Gadgil Panel (2010β2011): Recommended that the entire Western Ghats extent (1,29,037 sq km) be designated as an ESA
β‘οΈK. Kasturirangan Working Group (2012β2013): Rejected the blanket approach,proposed that only the 60,000 sq km of natural landscape be formally notified as an ESA.
β‘οΈArticle also discusses the Importance of Western Ghats: Monsoon , Agriculture , One of 8 Biodiversity Hotspots

| 6 | β‘οΈ India will require $2.5 trillion by 2030 to meet its Nationally Determined Contributions.
β‘οΈ Over the longer term, the cost of achieving net-zero emissions by 2070 is estimated at $10.1 trillion
β‘οΈ Union Budget 2024-25: India would develop a climate-finance taxonomy. This is the foundation of the entire ecosystem.
β‘οΈ Federally disaggregated nature: States have neither the borrowing capacity nor the institutional infrastructure to access international climate finance.
Four Major Recommendations:
β‘οΈ First, finalise and enact the Climate Finance Taxonomy without further delay.
β‘οΈ Second, the RBI must move from enabling green finance to mandating it -> expanded PSL targets that include climate adaptation alongside mitigation.
β‘οΈ Third, establish a State Climate Finance Facility, capitalised for example to give States and municipalities genuine access to green debt markets.
β‘οΈ Fourth, scale sovereign green bond issuances rapidly and embed them in the SLR framework to deepen the domestic market and attract foreign capital.

| 8 | Need of Ecosystem-based Adaptation (EbA):
β‘οΈEbA uses biodiversity and ecosystem services to help people adapt to climate change.
β‘οΈIndiaβs coastline hosts a range of ecosystems, including mangroves, seagrasses, coral reefs, and wetlands, that act as natural buffers against climate impacts.
β‘οΈEbA offers a promising strategy for reducing climate risk while sustaining the ecosystems that support fisheries, agriculture, and tourism.
β‘οΈIn Indiaβs adaptation planning seawalls, groynes, and embankments continue to dominate adaptation spending, even though they can be costly to maintain and sometimes transfer risks elsewhere.
β‘οΈThe benefits of EbA:
--> In the Sundarbans,over 18,000 women restored 4,600 hectares of mangroves, blunting the devastation of cyclones Amphan and Yaas
--> The restoration also streng thened livelihoods through activities such as honey collection and crab farming.
--> When Cyclone Dana made landfall near Odisha's coast, the region's mangroves quietly provided a vital natural shield. | 1 126 |
