Summary, etc. In the largest physical feature on the earth called the Himalayas what we have been encountering is the phenomena of a recurring environmental crisis. This magnificient mountain range in the world also comprises very young geological structures which represent fragile ecosystems. Both gradational and tectonic forces have been taking their toll slowly but inexorably. Human improvidence has added in a considerable measure to this assault and accelerated degradation. Environmentally it is a region of belligerence. Unless we protect, restore and enrich the resource bases of the Himalayas with speed and determination many disasters of big dimensions are bound to overtake us in the years ahead.<br/><br/>The Himalayas have protected us for centuries climatically, economically and geo-politically. They have nurtured our civilization and given uş great biodiversity, priceless water and alluvium, and even secured our frontiers. We are deeply indebted to them. Let us resolve to repay that debt by pursuing the twin goals of development and environmental security and sustainability. It is in these contexts that this book has been written with the honest hope that it will touch some nerve, prod some conscience and stimulate some concrete action.
