Want to know the real #climatebudget? Then look beyond Ministry of Environment. #ClimateCrisis is beyond carbon policies and schemes. It's where money is being allocated to not just mitigate but also add to fuel the crisis (1/n) #UnionBudget2022 #India
Let’s take health ministry for example. One of the big reasons we are all bothered about climate is because it’s impact on health. India has some of the most polluted cities in the world, which means more people at risk from respiratory disorders. (2/n)
But you will not find any specific allocation in the health ministry’s budget for respiratory or lung missions, or any new project announced for the same. So firstly, enough money is not allocated under the National Clean Air Action Programme (NCAP) #UnionBudget2022
