The residents of Uttarakhand are already experiencing the impacts of climate change, such as changing temperatures, upward-moving snowlines, receding glaciers, erratic rainfall, reduction of snow in winter, changed cropping seasons, shifting cultivation zones for certain crops, and drying up of perennial streams, as pointed out in the state government’s action plan on climate change (SAPCC). SankalpTaru introduced Project Protect Himalayas to prevent the migration of local farmers due to adverse impacts of climate change by supporting them with agroforestry. This includes planting fruit-bearing trees in their lands to help them stabilize their livelihoods along with protecting the ecosystem of the majestic Himalayas.
