Stage I is just a paperwork hurdle, saiba, and Stage II is where they actually start cutting trees, pretending NPV payments and compensatory afforestation will fix it. But how do you compensate for a centuries-old forest? My maths students can calculate NPV, but they cannot calculate the loss when the stream by our house in Margao turns to mud after the hill is mined. These clearances are a receipt for selling our home.
