10/14 - Ecocide in India?
India and Sri Lanka want to make their own "Suez Canal" through the coral reefs that divide them. But how do the coral reefs feel about that?
"No one seems concerned about the disastrous environmental costs involved and the virtual wiping out of India’s biologically-richest coastal region. In human terms, the livelihood of lakh fisherfolk spread across 138 fishing stations along the five coastal districts will be severely hit."
