News agencies have referred to it as the Indian Network on Comprehensive Climate Change Assessment, but the actual government website (linked) omits the "comprehensive." I've redirected the other names here, but when/if the name is officially changed then we can move the article to one of the redirects. TheGoodLocust ( talk) 22:54, 4 February 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for starting this, amusing how the Daily Telegraph suddenly changed the title of its article and the meaning. Probably got a kicking from the Indian Environment Ministry. This doesn't look like a reliable source, but gives a reasonable overview. . . dave souza, talk 10:26, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
All this seems to be in the news, and we say The Indian Network on Climate Change Assessment (INCCA) is a proposed network of scientists in India to be set up to publish peer-reviewed findings on climate change in India [1]. It was announced on 25 January 2010 , but [1] says This publication comes at a particularly opportune time. We are now ready to take the next big step in our scientific programme on climate change assessment. I am pleased to announce the launch of the Indian Network of Climate Change Assessment (INCCA), a network-based programme to be coordinated by our Ministry, which will undertake an even more ambitious programme of climate change assessment. and is dated, in pen, 7/10/09. That looks odd William M. Connolley ( talk) 20:15, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
I notice MN made an unmarked revert [2] with the curious edit comment "All reliable sources say mistakes, not goofups ". This is odd, because the sources used to support the assertion in the article says so we had goof-ups on Amazon forest, glaciers, snow peaks. and Minister for environment & forests Jairam Ramesh said he felt "vindicated" by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) goof-up on the life of Himalayan glaciers.
So *both* sources used say goof-up, but apparently "reliable sources" which we don't trouble ourself to quote say something else.
William M. Connolley ( talk) 20:32, 5 February 2010 (UTC)
I linked to the main IPCC article in there see also and to the Himalayas article as these guys are dealing with the glaciers there, is that ok?
Proposing to merge this article into Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, particularly the section on initiatives. The Indian Network on Climate Change Assessment initiative was launched by the Ministry. JetGreen40 ( talk) 03:08, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
