Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke of climate change in his monthly radio address 'Mann ki Baat' on Sunday and said this could also be a chance to be sensitive.
Modi said that climate change is not a subject confined only to the academia and people are facing its ill effects on a daily basis.
"Nature is changing its rules now, the summer heat we used to face in the month of May and June has shifted to March and April. . .
many people who send their suggestions to me point out what should we do amid such heat, " he said.
Speaking of sensitivity, the Prime Minister said that amid the increasing heat we must be sensitive towards people and birds alike.
"Ask for a glass of water for the postman who arrives at your house in the scorching heat to deliver a letter. . .
keep water in balcony for the birds, " Modi said.
Encouraging people to sensitise their children through bird feeders, Modi also pointed out a community's effort in Gujarat towards sparrow conservation.
