Answer 2

The Chipko movement also known as the chipko andolan was a forest conservation movement. It began in 1973 in India. In 1987, the Right Livelihood Award was given to the the Chipko Movement. The movement adopted the Gandhian methods of Satyagraha. Both male and female activists like Gaura Devi, Sudesha Devi, Bachni Devi and Chandi Prasad Bhatt took an active part in it.
         It occurred much before any environmental movement was taken up in the developing world. It's efforts were noticed by the world and inspired many eco-groups to slow down the rapid deforestation, increase ecological awareness, expose vested interests, and demonstrate the importance of people's power. It stirred up the Indian society to address the problems of tribal and marginalized people. At present it is not only a eco-socialist movement but an ecofeminism movement as well.  

The Beej Bachao Movement also known as the Beej Bachao Andolan or BBA was started in Jardhargaon in Tehri Garhwal to conserve and promote indigenous seeds and agricultural practices. It has its roots in the Chipko Movement. Vijay Jardhari a farmer and social activist realised that modern agriculture was destroying traditional farming. So he formed the BBA.
