Answer 2

Answer:

Concept:

Manipur's Phayeng Village has been dubbed India's first carbon-positive village.

The correct answer is option d.Manipur.

Explanation:

Phayeng will get a grant of Rs10 crore in stages as part of the carbon-positive village initiative to help with afforestation in the Maklang River basin, which runs through the village.

If a town sequesters more carbon than it emits, it is given the Carbon-Positive Tag, which slows the accumulation of greenhouse gases and mitigates the effects of climate change. Phayeng is a Chakpa scheduled caste village in Imphal West district, where conservation efforts are primarily motivated by the notion that the forest is a sacred grove. It is encircled by three highly forested hillocks, one of which has fruit trees in the center and a creek running through it.
