In the 1973 Loafer movie, there was this song called Aaj Mausam, Baiman Hai Bada. This was, Dharmendra was the star. And there is an old friend of mine who keeps referring to this song. But largely he refers to this song with relation to the political climate of the country. but there is also of course a strong reference to the climate of the country or the climate crisis that we are dealing with. So the question definitely arises that is the weather bad or are we doing bad with the weather? So those are questions that we need to grapple with because climate crisis is a reality today. We are facing it every day. The repercussions of it is of course born by those who are marginalized much more than the others. There are a lot of things that are circulating in the internet about it. There is a lot of information around it. How much understanding do we really have about it is a different matter. But everyone seems to have an opinion about it. So today we will have Soumya Dutta who is primarily a scientist. He is associated with MOHSAM, which is Movement for Advancing Understanding of Sustainability and Mutuality. He has also been a member of NAPM, the National Working Group member of National Alliance of People's Movement. He is also an executive member of the Friends of the Earth India and formerly on the advisory board of the UN Climate Technology Centre and Network. So it's a r…

Assam government is planning to reduce the eco-sensitive zone around Kaziranga National Park from 10km to 1km, which could put the natural habitat of animals at risk.
“The zone outside the boundary of the national park is meant to prevent construction and mining around this crucial UNESCO World Heritage Site.”From the report
Has the Assam government learnt nothing from the unprecedented floods in the state? Assam is still not recovered from the floods that hit the state last month. We've shown you that from the ground. More than 100 people have died, but it seems like the Hemant Biswasarma government is preparing for another devastating flood. The government wants to reduce the eco-sensitive zone around the Kaziranga National Park from 10km currently to just 1km, a cut of 90%. The Assam Chief Minister says that this deduction will clear this land for developmental projects, including a stadium. Let me tell you why this eco-sensitive zone is critical. The zone outside the boundary of the national park is meant to prevent construction and mining around this crucial UNESCO World Heritage Site. This is aimed to protect the natural habitat of the animals whose only home is this national park. This zone also acts as a buffer for wildlife. Like during floods, these animals leave the low-lying areas of the designated park and they move to higher areas in this zone to save their lives. And this happens almost every year as Kaziranga is located in the active flood plains of the Brahmaputra river. Flooding is just natural there. Even with the existing 10-kilometre buffer, hundreds of animals die in Kaziranga almost every year due to floods. And that number could increase if this buffer area is cut. Kaziranga …
