I came across an article in 'The Hindu' which mentions that the tree cover of Chennai is 20%. Also, looking online I realised there is good amount of information about cities in the US along the same lines and how it is used - mainly for urban forestry.
Is there any government body or NGO in Bangalore that would have the '% tree green cover' in Bangalore? I checked with the Forest Department, they directed me to BMP. BMP directed me to Forest department again!!
Any ideas on this?
Thanks
