Stop destruction of Himalayas, potential desertification of Gangetic plain, compensate Himalayan states for climate control, carbon capture etc.: Former Civil Servants

0
While countries such as Singapore and Sweden are curbing the environmental costs of data centres through regulation and innovation, India is actively courting these resource-intensive facilities with little regard for their water and energy demands.
