Surendra Kumar Yadav

Abstract :

 Climate change shall induce different consequences and disaster in North East India during coming next three decades with the possibility of increasing average temperature from 1 to 2 0C. Key sectors for vulnerability in disaster include water, agriculture, human health and changes in forest (60 % area) cover. Due to topography of area, land forms, difficult and uneven terrain in different states, the impacts shall be more severe in North East India. Effective intervention, education & communication (IEC) tool can be extremely useful for climate change based disaster management because people and community members can prepare themselves against disaster. Water cycle is associated with flood and drought which in turn shall affect agriculture production as 60 % crop area is under rain fed. Vector borne diseases like malaria and dengue shall cover more and more area simultaneously. Disaster induced by climate change shall have more impacts because by enlarge tribal population is economically poor in the region.
