Climate change is the most pressing global environmental challenge faced by humanity today. Temperature rise, extreme weather events, heavy rainfall, and drought-like situations, in recent times are some of the indicators of climate change impact. Northeast India which is the confluence of Eastern Himalayan and Indo-Burma biodiversity hotspots is highly vulnerable to climate change owing to its strategic location, fragile ecosystem, transboundary river basin, and socio-demographic variables. However, plantation and natural regeneration of plants is the key to mitigate climate change. Therefore, a practical, sustaining and long-lasting institutional plantation program has been initiated by the Science, Technology, and Climate Change Department covering all the departments under the banner "Chief Minister's Institutional Plantation Programme" (CMIPP) which will be implemented from the 17th July to 15th August 2022.
