Question

How was environment treated earlier? What has been the change in? Discuss.

Answer 1

• The environment in earlier days was treated as a 'free entity'.

• Industries polluted the air and water without any restrictions.

• No precaution was taken to keep the environment clean.

• The government paid no attention to safeguard the environment.

However, with times, the perception has changed for good. The Indian government introduced new laws to protect the environment. The government also holds the polluter responsible for damaging the environment. Several judgements have upheld the right that a healthy environment is intrinsic to the Fundamental Right to Life.

Answer 2

Hello mate

here's your answer

_________________

The environment was being polluted and the health of the people was completely unhealthy. The bhopal gas tragedy brought change, the Indian government brought new laws on the government, hence the polluters were to be held accountable for the damage done to the environment. Now it is felt that environment is something that people generation will share and it could not be destroyed merely for industrial development any other activities.
