Actress Dia Mirza has spoken about Uttarakhand battling 40 active forest fires. The fires have already impacted forests across the Garhwal and Kumaon regions, and is said to be the worst since 2016.
"I once quoted Baba Dioum, a Senegalese forestry engineer in a blog, the gist of which was that in the end we will conserve only what we love. Do we love our forests enough to protect them is a question that niggles at me every time such devastation takes place in Uttarakhand. Uttarakhand is the birthplace of the Ganga and its forests feed many important river systems that are the life source of millions," said Dia.
