ARUNACHAL PRADESH

The lush mountains of Arunachal Pradesh are home to hundreds of bird species, some of which are rare migratory birds. While the entire state boosts a large number of avian faunae, with the hornbill being the state bird, many estranged resident birds are also found here. 

Arunachal Pradesh is a favourite birding destination for birders from India and abroad. The state has some beautiful sanctuaries which dot its hilly and heavily forested terrain. Around fourteen winter migratory bird species come to Arunachal Pradesh. Some of the migratory birds which arrive during the winter are the Amur Falcon, which flies from Siberia to the Tirap district of Arunachal Pradesh. Tirap is its stopover area for a few weeks before it flies to South Africa. Then there is the endangered Black Necked crane from Tibet flying into the remote region of Zemithang in the Tawang district. 

Recently three new species of migratory birds were found in the Ziro district- the Spotted Redshank, the Black-Headed Gull and the Peregrine Falcon. The wealth of avian fauna of Arunachal Pradesh goes beyond the ordinary, as its climate and forested landscape are ideal for indigenous and migratory bird populations to thrive. Therefore, Arunachal Pradesh is truly a treasure trove of birds.

While the emissions intensity of GDP has decreased, absolute emissions have not, resulting in widespread warming and a variety of negative social and ecological effects. According to an IPCC report, a 1.5°C increase in global temperatures relative to pre-industrial levels can result in a disastrous rise in sea levels, disproportionately affect vulnerable groups through negative health consequences, loss of livelihood prospects, and foo...

Environmental ethics is a well-established branch of practical philosophy in environmental philosophy that "reconstructs the fundamental categories of arguments that can be made for safeguarding natural entities and the sustainable use of natural resources." The three main paradigms in conflict are theocentrism, physiocentrism, and anthropocentrism.
