A conclave was organised to increase awareness so that people can take action at their individual level to minimise the release of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.
Raising concern over climate change DGM, IMD, Dr Mrutyunjay Mohapatra said that an ice-melting process in polar regions is causing sea-level rise and coastal areas are facing problems, especially during cyclones.
Dr Mrutyunjay Mohapatra said, "Climate change is an ongoing process. But, in recent decades the temperature of the surface air is rising rapidly. Due to this variation and global warming, there has been a rise in the frequency, duration and intensity of various extreme weather situations like heat waves and heavy rainfall. It has impacted the animal and plant spaces. Due to the temperature rise, there is an ice-melting process in polar regions which causes sea-level rise and coastal areas are facing problems, especially during cyclones."
He said that climate change is occurring due to man-made activities like an increase in greenhouse gases by human activities.
