This book provides a cross-sectoral, multidisciplinary assessment
of the major verticals of Blue Economy relevant to the mangrove
ecosystem in Indian Sundarbans, which is a deltaic complex at the
apex of Bay of Bengal. This book evaluates the feasibility of Blue
Economy considering the natural resource base in this mangrove
dominated deltaic complex. Chapter 1 discusses the need of
expanding different marine and estuarine oriented verticals of Blue
Economy as the land resources are gradually becoming depleted.
Chapter 2 highlights the wide spectrum of biotic and abiotic
resources of the Indian Sundarbans which can serve as the strong
foundation of expanding Blue Economy in the region. Chapter 3
highlights several mangrove based livelihoods that are not only
innovative, but may present new opportunities to initiate cottage
industries. Chapter 4 highlights the threats associated with Blue
Economy in Indian Sundarbans like, sea level rise, acidification of
water, weather extremes, pollution, over-exploitation of natural
resources, etc., along with ground-zero environmental data collated
over three decades. Chapter 5 offers several solutions to combat
the threats to regional Blue Economy emphasizing both technology
and policy based management. The book attempts to align the
proliferation of different sectors of Blue Economy in the framework
of Indian Sundarbans.
