Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

Mumbai Climate Action Plan ( MCAP )

 

 

Context :

Now, be part of climate change plan   /  TOI   /  05 Sept 021

 

Extract :

 

Under Mumbai climate action plan (MCAP), BMC will begin a citizen consultation process for four days, from Sept 6

 

The topics , schedule and link for registration for the four seminars have been listed on BMC’s twitter handle @mybmc

 

The topics will be :

 

 Sept  6  :  Air Quality

 

 Sept  7  :  Energy and Buildings

 

 Sept 8  :  Urban Greening and Biodiversity

 

Sept  9  :  Urban Flooding & Water Resource Management

 

 

Experts and citizens should register online to participate in the webinars

Incidentally , @mybmc , I could not find any link for registering for these seminars


And till this morning ( 9 am on 6 Sept ) , the EVENT page of MCAP looked like this :

 

 https://mcap.mcgm.gov.in/events/     >   Work in Progress




The website :  mcap.mcgm.gov.in  , also has an option to send in suggestions, objections and recommendations related to climate change


 

===================================================

On the website FEEDBACK FORM, one can choose from following FOCUS AREAS :

 

#   Adaptation ( General )

 

#   Air Quality

 

#   Building Energy Efficiency

 

#   Mitigation ( General )

 

#   Sustainable Mobility

 

#   Sustainable Waste Management

 

#   Urban Floods and Water Resource Management

 

#   Urban Green Cover and Biodiversity

 

The feedback must not exceed 4,000 characters

 

 

===================================================

May be one can describe a suggestion in 4,000 characters on any  ONE AREA, but one needs more space to cover several areas


This is why I list below, links to my relevant blogs :
