In June 2009 Government of Karnataka (GoK) constituted a Coordination Committee to oversee and coordinate the state’s response to climate change. It assigned the mandate to prepare the State Action Plan on Climate Change (SAPCC) to Environmental Management & Policy Research Institute (EMPRI). In the planning process, the committee emphasised the need to develop Karnataka SAPCC in close consultation with GoK who should eventually own the action plan. This is reflected in the composition of the Coordination Committee to which 15 key departments are member. This present report investigates sectoral governmental actions more thoroughly, although not exhaustively. It places actions and policies identified in the context of perceived vulnerabilities and options for mitigation and adaptation.
