Tamil Nadu State Action Plan for Climate Change: draft

It is a fact that climate change manifests itself locally, though the drivers of the change i..e the greenhouse gases are generated globally through anthropogenic activities. In view of the fact that local vulnerabilities due to climate change can be addressed more adequately at local level itself, the state of Tamilnadu has prepared its State Action Plan on Climate Change (TNSAPCC). The approach of the TNSAPCC is to create and define a overarching climate response framework at the State Government level to reduce vulnerability; reduce hazards and exposure; pool, transfer, and share risks; prepare and respond effectively; and increase capacity to cope with unforeseen events, while articulating flexible sector specific response strategies and actions keeping in mind the overall Vision.
