of green cover the wet lines then the increased pollutant in the air and the

increased pollutant in the air and the

increased pollutant in the air and the health issues etc so now let us try to

health issues etc so now let us try to

health issues etc so now let us try to understand how did we analyze this way

understand how did we analyze this way

understand how did we analyze this way today we have the remote sensing data

today we have the remote sensing data

today we have the remote sensing data which is available for the last four

which is available for the last four

could be deployed now when you look at Bangalore the city which was a Garden

Bangalore the city which was a Garden

Bangalore the city which was a Garden City in 1800 the temperature of the city

City in 1800 the temperature of the city

City in 1800 the temperature of the city was 14 to 16 degrees Celsius in May

was 14 to 16 degrees Celsius in May

was 14 to 16 degrees Celsius in May month and in December it was 0 degree

month and in December it was 0 degree

month and in December it was 0 degree Celsius and today the same city is the

Celsius and today the same city is the

dead city with the temperature of 34 to

dead city with the temperature of 34 to 38 degrees they now let’s look at the

38 degrees they now let’s look at the

38 degrees they now let’s look at the how the urbanization has happened the 68

how the urbanization has happened the 68

how the urbanization has happened the 68 percent green cover in 1973 it’s about

percent green cover in 1973 it’s about

percent green cover in 1973 it’s about 2,000 in 2016 we have 76% the built-up

2,000 in 2016 we have 76% the built-up

2,000 in 2016 we have 76% the built-up area and if I visualize this 1973 is a

so that by that way sure we need to have

so that by that way sure we need to have seven to eight trees per person so now

seven to eight trees per person so now

seven to eight trees per person so now that’s where there are moves in the city

that’s where there are moves in the city

that’s where there are moves in the city to green the Bangalore now let’s look at

to green the Bangalore now let’s look at

to green the Bangalore now let’s look at the topic of the chilli the lakes of

the topic of the chilli the lakes of

the topic of the chilli the lakes of Bangalore I would say that lakes are

Bangalore I would say that lakes are

Bangalore I would say that lakes are polluted abused and the rainwater

polluted abused and the rainwater

polluted abused and the rainwater harvesting in the city is suboptimal

harvesting in the city is suboptimal

harvesting in the city is suboptimal there is no concept of reuse and recycle
