The Coastal Wetlands ecosystem, particularly the Mangroves are one of the largest absorbers of carbon dioxide. Protecting and restoring the mangroves is an important part of the fight against global warming.

The oceans are an important part of the climate change puzzle. Happy to share my article in the Climate Change series published on 18th May in the Millenium Post.

[MillenniumPost @mpostdigital]

As oceans rise and storms grow stronger, the world’s coasts—home to over half the planet’s people—stand on the frontline of climate change, where survival demands urgent intervention, innovation, and a sense of equity; writes @krishnagupta358

@mpostdigital In the next piece of the Planning Series, I look at the various factors necessary for agricultural growth: namely irrigation, fertilizers and seeds and how these have developed since the first five year plan.

[DR. KRISHNA GUPTA, IAS @krishnagupta358]

@mpostdigital Continuing with the Planning Series, I have looked at the twelfth plan, which was the last five year plan. Niti Aayog also came into existence during this period

[MillenniumPost @mpostdigital]

The 12th five-year plan, which would be intercepted by the formation of NITI Ayog, started with a vision of ‘faster, sustainable and inclusive growth’, which seemed to be a distant possibility at the time of the plan’s dissolution

@mpostdigital I continue the Planning Series by looking at the targets set in the 11th Plan and how Indian economy fared.

[DR. KRISHNA GUPTA, IAS @krishnagupta358]

@mpostdigital Continuing with the Planning Series, I have outlined the policies pursued in the ninth five year plan in this article and analysed why targets could not be met

[MillenniumPost @mpostdigital]

Against the backdrop of the Asian financial crisis and a slump in agriculture, manufacturing, the ninth plan not just faltered on the growth trajectory but also failed to raise savings and improve capital efficiency
