what steps would you undertake to protect the biodiversity of your area
Answers
Following is the list of steps I would like to take:
1. Limit the expansion of housing near agricultural areas.
2. Limit emissions of factories. A factory be assigned an index upto which its emissions would be permissible.
3. Limit the use of Pesticide sprays, which are mostly in use for fruits and vegetables.
4. Plantation drive being held every year, and come up with new varities/ species of plants.
5. Water resources to be preserved and steps taken for containment of water pollution.
6. Containment of air pollution.
7. Sewage tratment plants to be installed and public awareness made regarding disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste.
8. Grasslands to be protected, as they are an essential part for feeding and well-being of animals. It is a misforturne that most of the grasslands have been either deserted or covered under constructions.
9. Limit interference of human beings with wild life. The bitter truth is that Tourism has served a cause for the extinction of many wildlife species.
Much more can be done, but it wholly depends upon us. The need of the hour is to make efforts in the right direction and save your future.
