Focusing on five different agro-climatic regions of West Bengal: the hill region, foothill region, drought region, and coastal regions of Sunderban and Purba Midnapore, it presents research related to various sectors, including the agricultural, forestry and informal sectors. The book also offers insights into the impact of climate change on smallholdings, forest-dependent communities, fishing and crab collecting communities, casual labourers and workers in the informal sectors, and identifies the key vulnerabilities associated with climate change, as well as the causes of such vulnerability the extent to which remedial measures have been taken. The book particularly highlights the role of Indian governmental policies like Sarva Shiksa Abhiyan, Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), the housing scheme, Indira Awas Yojana, the Food for Work Programme, and the rural road building scheme, Pradhan Mantri Grameen Sadak Yojana, which are important for rural development and in reducing vulnerability. Showcasing vulnerability measurement in the socio-ecological system, the book will appeal to developmental practitioners, government implementation agencies, policymakers and researchers in the field of environmental science and policymakers will find this book appealing. 001431621 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001431621 650_0 $$aClimatic changes$$xEconomic aspects$$zIndia$$zWest Bengal. 001431621 650_6 $$aClimat$$xChangements$$xAspect économique$$zInde$$zBengale-Occidental. 001431621 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001431621 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aBasu, Jyotish Prakash.$$tClimate change vulnerability and communities in agro-climatic regions of West Bengal, India$$z3030504670$$w(OCoLC)1154892158 001431621 852__ $$bebk 001431621 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-50468-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001431621 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1431621$$pGLOBAL_SET 001431621 980__ $$aBIB 001431621 980__ $$aEBOOK 001431621 982__ $$aEbook 001431621 983__ $$aOnline 001431621 994__ $$a92$$bISE
