susan's picture

For over a decade, Orissa has been teetering from one extreme weather condition to another: from heatwaves to cyclones, drought to floods. The state has been declared
disaster-affected for 95 of the last 105 years. Why is this happening? Is it the result of global warming and climate change? Richard Mahapatra, who has been awarded the
CCDS-InfoChangeIndia Fellowship for development reportage, explores these questions in the first of a series of articles.
