Introduction:
The State of Himachal Pradesh being a mountain state is very sensitive and vulnerable
to the climate induced changes in the micro and macro environment. As a follow up
of the Himalayan Chief Ministers Conclave on "Indian Himalyas: Glaciers, Climate Change & Livelihoods" held at Shimla on october 29-30,2009 and
the joint programme evolved their in called 'Shimla Declaration on Climate Change
and Himalayan Development'. A State Centre on Climate Change was set up under the
aegis of the State Council for Science Technology & Environment. This centre has
been established with the objectives to coordinate amongst scientific, academic, NGOs
and other research institutions in and outside the state for pursuing research in
the field of climate change and its impact on the Himalayan Ecosystem so that adaptation
plans and policies relevant to the state of H.P. could be evolved. Besides this,
the Centre would also implement the mandate laid down in the National Action Plan
on Climate Change and the Eight National Missions on climate change in the state
so that the state's initiatives could be dovetailed with the centre's initiatives.
