Today at morning here the temp. is 17 c, and after four days of cloud in which coolness decreased and it is now seems to be surfacing, again.

It is predicted by the scientists in of National Research Council, USA, that the situation is likely to become even worse with the climate and that the time to receive warnings and take preventive measures is likely to reduce greatly!

Obviously! Even advance warnings would always have limitations. For example, if we allow reckless settlement of people along the coastal belts in huge numbers, it would be near to impossible to shift such multitudinous people to safer places on an advance notice of a few hours or even a day.

And more plans are on the way to reclaim more land along Mumbai coastline to make space of ever-increasing populations! :blink: Due to instability of reclaimed land, every years lots of accidents occur such as buildings sinking, roads breaking etc. and still we never learn!

The coastal regions are most vulnerable for its fragile ecological character and as you have mentioned the massive problem of Mumbai, the scenario is more or less the same of all the coastal belts in India. In West Bengal the sea beach of Digha is one such theater of environmental and ecological degradation. Countless hotels have been permitted to come up in a blatant violation of all laws in this regard despite grim warnings of scientists!!

Yes, I have also read about rapid destruction of mangroves in Sunderban which are ecologically very essential for the environment and are extremely fragile at the same time. Similar mangrove forests along the coast line of Mumbai have been destroyed greatly due to so-called development and that has given rise to a number of serious problems!
