India's environment : myth and reality
Bahuguna, Sunderlal.
India's environment : myth and reality - Dehradun Natraj publishers 2007 - v.p.
This book is a collection of thought provoking essays by India's leading environmentalists. Covering a range of very important 'sub-units' of what we call 'our environment', each essay discusses the small and large scale impact of current trends and policies on each of these so called 'sub-units' ie. trees, water etc.
India is a country very rich in natural resource and forest cover but our government policies and political conscience are shortsighted and selfish. Their implementation is hindered by a one way flow - it is about taking from the environment, which is sound if we return or harness or restore the balance between humans and our natural habitat. But our policies are ecologically deaf and environmentally unstable. This erudite collection of essays throws up ideas, views and opinions. It offers facts, analysis and a broader perspective. India's Environment: Myth and Reality is a must and timely read for every thinking Indian!
