NALOCAL CLIMATE CHANGE
We are experiencing a gradual shift in local climate pattern with the city experiencing its
heaviest rainfall in its recent years .We have received 23% more rainfall than usual .
It is very stange that several depressions are forming near our coast . They normally travel
northwestwardly but that seems not to be happening this year.This a strange pattern as
there are no rains in Kerala and Karnataka.
INDIGENOUS PEOPLE CONTRIBUTION CLIMATE CHANGE
Indigenous forest practices have thrived in areas where access to resources

can indicate threats and call for help as their culture and livehood depend on
healthy forests .
