This paper highlights the various impacts of climate change on Marathwada region in Maharashtra, India. It examines how rising temperatures, declining rainfall and more frequent extreme weather events have impacted key sectors like agriculture, water resources, health, and livelihoods. The article argues that climate change is not just an environmental issue but also a social and economic one as it has deepened inequalities among vulnerable communities.
Finally this paper outlines some measures to mitigate these effects such as promoting climate-resilient agriculture practices; improving water management systems; strengthening community-based adaptation strategies etc., which can help reduce the impact of global warming in this region.
The main approaches discussed in this paper are promoting climate-resilient agriculture, improving water management, and strengthening community-based adaptation strategies. Climate resilient agriculture involves the use of techniques such as crop diversification, soil conservation practices and efficient irrigation systems to reduce vulnerability to extreme weather events like droughts or floods. Improving water management includes measures such as rainwater harvesting, watershed development projects etc., which can help conserve scarce resources during times of drought.
Strengthening community-based adaptation strategies involve empowering local communities with knowledge about how best to cope with changing climatic conditions so that they can better prepare for future challenges posed by global warming.
