In Indira Priyadarshini Nagar which adjoins both sides of the road leading to Global Hospitals, layouts are dotted with vacant plots as much as buildings. The buildings display the signs of human civilisation, and the vacant plots bear the insignia of Nature. Walk down any of those cross streets and you might luck into avian families. The species to be found are the purple moorhen, bronze-winged jacana, white-breasted waterhen, pheasant-tailed jacana (in rare patches) and the common moorhen.

Climate scientists and advocates long held an optimistic belief that once impacts became undeniable, people and governments would act. This overestimated our collective response capacity while underestimating our psychological tendency to normalise, says Rachit Dubey, assistant professor at the department of communication, University of California.
