India is facing a climatic crisis. Its economy and people are at danger because to unpredictable monsoons and rising temperatures. More than 80% of India's districts are vulnerable to climate-related calamities, according to the World Bank. These difficulties include crop failures brought on by heat in the central areas and heavy floods in the northeast. There has never been a more pressing need for efficient methods of assessing and adapting to climate risk.

Ahaetulla longirostris, a rare long-snouted vine snake, was recently found again in Uttar Pradesh's Dudhwa Tiger Reserve. This was just the second sighting of the species in India and the first in the state. During a rhino release operation in the Palia division, the finding was made.

An astounding 8,938 migrant fatalities were reported by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) in 2024, the most in five years. This concerning pattern highlights the risky treks that many people embark in quest of security or better possibilities. Given that many deaths go unreported, the data shows that the true death toll is probably significantly higher.

Coastal mangroves serve as vital bio-shields against natural disasters. Recent research marks their effectiveness in mitigating the impacts of tsunamis and flooding along India’s coastline. The study, conducted by a team from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, utilised advanced simulations to evaluate how emergent vegetation, particularly mangroves, acts as a protective barrier. This research puts stress on the importance of integrating natural solutions into coastal defence strategies.
