A power surplus country which has built all the dams it could, wants to build another one in an earthquake prone zone after clearing out pristine forests and wildlife without following due process. Makes perfect sense! #StopEtalinSaveDibang #SaveArunachalBiodiversity
The #DibangValley is a:
1. Seismically active zone
2. One of the richest biodiversity hotspots
3. Home to ancient tribal communities
MoEF&CC plans to build a dam on it and is slated to cut a whopping 2.7 lakh trees! Green Humour

Dibang valley- Arunanchal Pradesh
NOT TO MISS THE IMMENSE FLORA AND FAUNA found out there... prevailing right from the continental drift. Think of the Idu Mishmi community living there from past 10th century B. C.

The Etalin project would affect at least 3 sanctuaries and national parks, 4 Important Bird Areas and 3 potential Ramsar sites or wetlands of international importance. #StopEtalinSaveDibang #SaveArunachalBiodiversity MoEF&CC
We all go crazy looking at scenic pictures of the rivers, mountains, endemic creatures of the region, why then today, are we silent?

We thought, we have all become more aware now that COVID 19 has hit us all.
The government will find this as an excuse for development, and try to fool us all.
We have only few weapons, our awareness and unity.

Such mega dams in a seismically active geological region compound with the issue of climate change and the resultant retreat of the glaciers that are to feed the dams envisioned by the project. #StopEtalinSaveDibang #SaveArunachalBiodiversity

Construction of a colossal concrete structure in exchange for loss of biodiversity- the Wild that we Mishmis so proudly boast to have preserved for generations does not feel like such a good bargain.

Stop sacrificing lush forests and biodiverse regions of India to hydroelectric projects that we can live without! Empower people and encourage ecotourism! This can conserve cultural diversity and biodiversity of the area . #StopEtalinSaveDibang MoEF&CC #SaveArunachalBiodiversity

Forests in Arunachal are under ownership of local people while Forest Dept controls meagre %age of land. Dibang Valley is ancestral homeland of Idu Mishmi tribe who will lose their traditional way of life
