Answer:Climate change is proving out to be one of the greatest challenges faced by the global community today. The
analysis of past trends and current erratic behaviour in climatic events shows that changes being experienced in the
climate of Jharkhand are the proof of natural climate variability prevailing in the state. Many studies for the state
show that the Jharkhand is in precarious situation due to its high climate sensitivity and vulnerability, combined with
low adaptive capacity.
The state is already suffering due to its high dependence on mineral resources. Further the forest and water resources
in the State are facing threat due to industrial and urban growth and being uneven in distribution both temporally and
spatially. Hence the challenge of climate change calls for appropriate, evidence based and coherent policy response,
followed by the adequate action that can help reduce its vulnerability and build resilience of the various sectors of
the state in the context of climate change impacts.
I am pleased to know that Department of Forest and Environment, Government of Jharkhand, has been able to draft
a State Climate Change Action Plan, building upon the inputs from the various departments of GoJ. Mrs Alka
Tiwari, Principal Secretary, Department of Forest and Environment, GoJ deserves compliments for her overall
coordination in this endeavour. I also thank all the departmental secretaries of GoJ for their support in this effort;
resulting in a valuable planning document.
Further the drafting team led by PCCF Jharkhand in general, its Co-chairman Dr. H. S. Gupta, State Programme
Director, Jharkhand Tribal Development Society, in particular deserve to be congratulated for completing this job in
a very short span of time.
I sincerely hope that the priorities identified under the Climate Change Action Plan will prompt us to have effective
execution strategies that will help the state to address the challenges of climate change and ensure a sustainable
pathway for development of Jharkhand.
