Mumbai Climate Week 2027: Flamingo Blue Carbon Complex and Wetland Conservation Plans
deccanherald.comMumbai Climate Week 2027 is set for February 22-26, 2027, with a focus on the proposed Flamingo Blue Carbon Urban Complex. The initiative aims to integrate wetlands, mangroves, mudflats, and flamingo habitats into a unified conservation framework, highlighting their blue carbon value for carbon storage, flood mitigation, and climate resilience. The proposal, submitted to the Prime Minister's Office and forwarded to the Maharashtra State Wetland Authority, seeks to unlock economic value through blue carbon, ecosystem services, climate finance, and sustainable tourism. Key partners include the Bombay Natural History Society and NatConnect Foundation, who will host workshops to develop a climate action framework. The event also aims to accelerate the long-pending notification of over 23,000 wetlands in Maharashtra. Organizers are engaging policymakers, think tanks, and community leaders to showcase Indian climate solutions globally and translate them into sustained action.
