After collecting all these data she can make a result of  diseases verses climatic change in the residents of Varanasi.



" Once we have good research based on specific data, local communities can take seasonal mitigate steps like widening sewers and directing the flow of water. Policies and plans the government makes are based on the data that scientists have done research on . So, unless and until we have knowledge on particular areas it would be tough to deal with problems locally"
