Title

Western Ghats

Description

Western Ghats is a long mountain range that runs parallel to the western coast of India. Their abundant endemic species of both flora and fauna contribute to their rich biodiversity. In addition to water supply and soil retention, other ecosystem services, such as carbon sequestration, benefit millions of people. Another cultural element of the Ghats is the indigenous societies living within the mountain ranges, with their traditions and knowledge base profoundly rooted in the ecology and landscapes of the region.
