Climate change is a global issue that affects everyone, but its impacts are particularly pronounced for certain communities. Among these are the Gujjar and Bakarwal communities of Jammu and Kashmir.

Usually, the two pastoralist communities spend November to April in Jammu, and May to October in Kashmir, but soaring heat forced them to leave Jammu early this year.

Gujjar Bakarwal; Gujjars being predominantly semi-nomadic and half-settled, Bakarwals happen to be the real 'rolling stones'.
