Biodiversity Anecdotes from Bengaluru

Karnataka is blessed with a diverse tropical climate – from balmy or humid, to hot and dry – the state has historically supported lush evergreen forests and green cities. Until recently, Bengaluru boasted of thoughtful inclusion of blue and green spaces in the form of manmade lakes and gardens. However, the rapid growth of the city has caused these spaces to shrink drastically. 

How do other living beings that also use the spaces deal with this encroachment?

With these nature illustrations, we invite you to appreciate how, while some have reduced in numbers, many other organisms continue to survive – sometimes even thrive – in the nooks and crannies of Bengaluru. Each organism has a story worth knowing. These are only a few.

Key Questions

Assumed that a project idea has been finalized, how do we estimate the quantum of money that is required?

From where are we going to raise the required amount of money?

How do we justify the amount identified to be invested in the project conceptualized?

What are therefore; the municipal finance challenges? Can we understand the limitations, opportunities/possibilities?
