Imphal, December 30 2013:
Manipur Environment Calendar 2014 was released today by Forest and Environment Minister Th Debendra at his Old Secretariat office.
Speaking at the occasion, Th Debendra observed that Manipur too has started feeling the impacts of global warming.
Responsibility for combating climate change cannot be heaped on Forest Department alone.
The issue demands collective efforts from the people and smooth coordination among Government departments, he asserted.
On account of the small budgetary allocation made to the department, it is not in a position to take up any significant projects/programmes.
It is crucial to create awareness among the general public on how to tackle and mitigate the degree of climate change, he added.
