- It is ironic that the industrial revolution during the past century that helped feed the growing world population and the associated over-exploitation of the environment by humans has led to the present Climate Emergency and an existential crisis for humans.
While much more funding needs to be invested in R & D innovations for the Mitigation of climate change, a 2-3 degrees Celsius increase in global mean temperature by the end of the century is inevitable. Therefore, in the short term, society has to live and cope with the associated disasters. Hence, we must invest equally or more in developing adaptation strategies to minimize economic loss and loss of life and livelihood.
In a conversation Prof BN Goswami, SERB Distinguished Fellow at the Cotton University Guwahati with Harini Nagendra, Director, Research Centre, Azim Premji University, talks about the shifting patterns of the Indian monsoon and what implications it has for the future.
