What is EIA ?.........................
• An environmental impact assessment (EIA) is an assessment of the possible impact—positive or negative—that a proposed project may have on the environment, together consisting of the natural, social and economic aspects.
WHY?
• Broadening the scope of EIA can benefit threatened species conservation.
• projects bring economic advantages but there are other adverse effects, which have been overlooked.
• A very important part of environment impact assessment is identification of the impact on the flora and fauna
