Ecological degradation is no longer presented only as biodiversity loss but as a driver of rising public costs. There is a shift from a conservation frame to a climate-resilience frame, thereby connecting ecological protection to outcomes that governments and planners already care about: water security, flood reduction, agricultural productivity and infrastructure durability. The Charter creates an important foundation for ecological governance in Kerala while identifying the harder work that remains.-Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2026/13/commentary/walking-razors-edge.html  aEconomic & Political Weekly  cAR 00102ddc40709408375aIIPAbIIPAd2026-04-29h61(13), Mar 28, 2026: p.13-17pAR138716r2026-04-29yAR
