> Dry pine needles in Jammu’s forests form a combustible mat, posing fire risks during summer that damage vegetation, wildlife habitats, biodiversity, and impact local livelihoods.
>The forest department of Jammu and Kashmir launched an initiative which ropes in local residents to collect pine needles and convert them into bio-briquettes and handicrafts.
>Bio-briquettes are a biofuel substitute for coal and charcoal. These briquettes can be used for cooking and heating purposes and are particularly useful in energy-scarce areas, during winters.
