OUR PASTCHIPKO MOVEMENT
Chipko movement was a famous movement in the earlier times. It was implemented early in the HIMALAYAS.The main aim of this movement was to restrict deforestation.There were attempts to revive the traditional conservation or developing new methods of ecological farming.They showed that community afforestation with indigenous species can also be effective.
Many farmers and citizen’s groups like the BEEJ BACHAO ANDOLAN and NAVDANYA have taken responsibility of the CHIPKO MOVEMENT.
Depletion of resources for satisfying the greed of few individuals.
Accumulation of resources in few hands.Indiscriminate exploitation of resources has
lead to global ecological crisis.

WASTE LAND :INDIA
SOIL EROSIONThe denudation of the soil cover and subsequent washing down is called SOIL EROSION
GULLY EROSIO
N
The running water cuts through the clayey soil and makes deep channels as GULLIES.
Bad land
The land which is not good for or is unfit for cultivation is known as BAD LAND.
In Chambal region such types of land is known as Ravines.
SHEET EROSION
Sometimes water flows with great speed and pressure and erodes the top layer of the soil, This is known as Sheet erosion.
OUR INDIA(PRESENT)
At present ,there are about 81000 species belong to
fauna and 47000 species belong to the flora of our country.
Out of these 47000 species, about 15000 belong to flowering plants.

Total forest cover in INDIA 21.81%
State having largest forest cover Madhya Pradesh
State having smallest forest cover Delhi
DEFORESTATION IN RIO DE JANEIRO
Deforestation in RIO DE JANEIRO (BRAZIL).This hill was deforestated in order to use its clay in construction in BARRA DA TIJUCA.
DEFORESTATION
Deforestation means the indiscriminate cutting of trees.
EVERY YEAR ABOUT 102,234,930 TREES !

WHAT STEPS SHOULD BE TAKEN ?
We can take the following steps to save our EARTH and to develop our RESOURCES :-
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
USE OF RENEWABLE RESOURCES
AFFORESTATION
CONSERVING THE ANIMAL SPECIES

The Government should take many steps to save :-
KASHMIR STAG
USE OF SOLAR ENERGY
USE OF WIND ENERGY
IMPORTANT ARE THE RESOURCE DESTROYING WITH NEGATIVE FORCE, GROW TREES AND BOW THE SEEDS, ALWAYS REMEMBER, " THERE IS ENOUGH FOR EVERYBODY'S NEED BUT NOT FOR ANYBODY'S NEED………
