Reforestation
Not met yet — counts as met once you answer a question on it.
Policy and ecological dimensions of restoring degraded forest lands operate under the National Forest Policy 1988, the Compensatory Afforestation Fund Act 2016 (CAMPA), and the Green India Mission under NAPCC. India's NDC commits to creating an additional carbon sink of 2.5–3 billion tonnes of CO₂ equivalent through forest cover by 2030. Reforestation links carbon sequestration, biodiversity recovery, watershed stabilisation, and livelihood generation for forest-dependent communities, spanning environment, climate policy, and tribal rights across multiple governance layers.
