Mumbai Deluge: Lessons for the Future

Publication Year: 2005

Author(s): Dr Rajendra K Pachauri

Abstract:

The erratic behaviour of the monsoon that has been observed in recent years could possibly be seen to corroborate the trend induced by climate change. Other impacts of climate change that can be seen in conjunction are the threat of sea level rise, likely decline in agricultural yields, greater health hazards, increase in vector-borne diseases and impacts on the availability of water.
