These maps show how areas that the sea would cover if all the Antarctic ice eventually melts raising the sea level by 68 metres in total. If the Greenland ice melts, the sea will rise by 7 metres. The greatest risk is that the west part of the antarctic is breaking up which could cause a sea level rise of four meters by the end of the century which threatens to drown coastal towns and there will be more hurricanes, tornados, flooding, severe storm weather, spread of deserts and widespread droughts.

Energy- fourth largest wind power installation, increase solar PV and CSP, energy efficiency,tarrifs, develop supercritical coal generation.
Urban public transport.
Agriculture - develop pest resistant crops .
Forest cover to increase to one third of country area.
Water efficiency use to be increased, develop salination, wetlands conservation
Ecosystems - improve land use, development, coastal protection, mangrove restoration, monitor glaciers. (ref207)
Notes:
The potential for solar power could cover all India's needs, assuming suitable storage. Tidal turbines would be llocated in the area of the Gulfs of Kutch and Cambay in the Arabian sea.
Estimates for use of surplus from crop residues would produce 17,000 MW of power from municipal and urban wastes.
At 20% blending for diesel fuel could meet 16 million tonnes of this fuel.
SW summer monsoon starts May-June. and winter monsoon starts in October. Winds are strong between March and August.
