Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi along with other G-20 Leaders visited and planted Mangroves at the ‘Taman Hutan Raya Ngurah Rai’ Mangrove forests on the sidelines of G-20 Summit in Bali today.

Mangroves play an important role in global conservation efforts. India has joined the Mangrove Alliance for Climate (MAC), a joint initiative of Indonesia and UAE under the Indonesian G-20 Presidency.

More than 50 mangrove species can be found spread over 5000 sq km in India. India is placing emphasis on the protection and restoration of mangroves, which are rich sites of biodiversity and serve as effective carbon sinks.

    Sir, yes it is good you all leaders giving importance to forest to control climate change but what about existing war between Russia and Ukraine which is directly producing high pollution and also responsible for climate change but all are helpless and even UNSC also unable to control Russia to stop war, why not withdrawing Russian veto power, due to this China is also moving on same path and preparing to finish Taiwan. All know about China and its policy of finishing existence of small and weak countries, spreading its land area, and also want to occupy south China sea ignoring existence of small countries situated at south China sea port, always supporting Pakistan, main creator of terrorism, but still UNSC is not aware of all above and also unable to take any action against China and so far has not withdrawn its veto power. Veto power must be awarded to countries who rules peacefully and like peaceful ruling all over World. All like to show their power by doing unwanted war exercises which also produce big pollution, so all leaders together of whole World must think seriously to control pollution and climate change. Thanks.
