This was largely due to a combination of human-induced climate change and El Ni\u00f1o, a naturally occurring phenomenon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is no time to lose in mitigating climate change. This means we have to make drastic reductions in greenhouse gases which trap heat in the atmosphere. An integral part of this is to phase out the use of polluting fossil fuels and switch to cleaner energy sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Priorities are Cutting of CO2 and Clean energy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Details of the event to be held at Colaba, Mumbai:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Date<\/strong>: Friday, 22nd March 2023<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Venue:<\/strong> Regional Meteorological Centre, Next to Sena Cinema, R.C.
