India’s coastline stretches 7,500 km and supports almost 30 per cent of the country’s population. While at least 219 ports and 87 power projects have been commissioned or proposed in the coastal areas so far, the government has done little to provide information on the ecological impact of these activities. The National Coastal Protection Campaign (NCPC), a joint initiative of non-profits working towards protecting the coasts and the coastal communities from haphazard development, has now developed a web-based application to monitor the coastline.
