Dry Spell Aids Restoration of Two Lakes in Bengaluru
A prolonged dry spell in Bengaluru provided favourable conditions for SayTrees Environmental Trust to accelerate the restoration of Krishna Sagara Lake and Valagere Kallahalli Lake. Reduced water levels enabled easier access to lake beds, efficient desilting operations, and uninterrupted movement of heavy machinery before the onset of the monsoon, supporting long-term water conservation and ecosystem revival efforts.
Miyawaki forests in Bengaluru need more than just trees
As Bengaluru increasingly adopts the Miyawaki method to create dense urban forests, environmental experts emphasize that successful ecological restoration requires more than rapid tree plantation. The article highlights the importance of biodiversity planning, native species selection, long-term maintenance, soil health, water management, and community participation to ensure these urban green spaces become sustainable ecosystems rather than isolated plantations. It also explores the broader role of Miyawaki forests in addressing urban heat, pollution, and ecological imbalance in rapidly urbanizing cities like Bengaluru.
