#EIA2020 fails to acknowledge the grave ecological crises that the country is facing. Here are 5 reasons why #DraftEIA2020 should be withdrawn, by @CPR_Climate's Shibani Ghosh [1/7]. #environment#thread#EIA2020draft
First, #EIADraft2020 is legally untenable. It does not conform to its parent Act, the Environment (Protection) Act 1986. Contrary to the aims of the EP Act, it reduces the *scope & stringency* of environmental impact assessments, threatening local ecologies and people. [2/7]
