Why the hills are burning?

ISSUE DATE: April 26, 2021 UPDATED: April 17, 2021 14:03 IST Up in flames: Fires rage in the Madmaheshwar forest range, Rudraprayag distri In the first week of April, India hosted US special presidential envoy for climate, John Kerry, in New Delhi as a precursor to the Leaders’ Summit with President Joe Biden later this month and COP-26 (the 26th United Nations Climate Change conference) in November. Around the same time, barely 300 km away in hill state Uttarakhand’s capital Dehradun, chief minister Tirath Singh Rawat was huddled in an emergency meeting to deal with the spreading forest fire in the state. His state, along with neighbouring hill state Himachal Pradesh, is witnessing unprecedented wildfires. The situation is getting worse by the day as the region has had a prolonged dry spell, leaving the forest floor “tinder dry”.

Ravaging Himalayan forest fires worry scientists

Ravaging Himalayan forest fires worry scientists © Getty Images Forest fires in some parts of northern India have been the strongest in one and a half decades The lush-green mountains in the background usually make the famous Nainital lake in Uttarakhand state of northern India more picturesque. But for several weeks now haze from forest fires has hidden the mountains, and the lake s beauty has visibly shrunk. You can smell the haze from this side of the lake where I live, said Shekhar Pathak, an expert on the history of forests in the region. Not just the pine trees that are highly prone to fires, even the oak forests are burning and that means the situation is quite serious.
