How changes in mumbai affected other parts of india?
Answers
Climate change impacts will lead to economic losses for various sectors. The impacts of climate change on the financial capital of India, Mumbai, have been delineated. These include the impact of temperature rise on rains and floods and their consequent effects on health.
The other consequences such as the rise in deaths from vector-borne diseases, dislocation due to floods and sea-level rise have been shown as projected economic losses for the years 2025 and 2050.
The economic costs of the sea-level rise in terms of loss of property along the coastline have also been projected for a 25- and 50-year timescale respectively.
The costs arising due to the increase in malaria, diarrhea and leptospirosis outbreaks have been projected till 2050. The conservative estimate of total costs of all these impacts, including the impact of climate change on tourism, is found to be enormous.
