in the world of Lepchas

Oh Narak! My Lord, let me dedicate

myself to you

Let me gather your music from the

springs, the rivers, the mountains, the forests,

the insects and the animals

Let me gather your music from the sweet

breeze and offer it to you

Vanishing Forests

The dimensions of deforestation in India arestaggering. The forest cover in the country isestimated at 637,293 sq km, which is 19.39per cent of the total geographical area.(dense forest 11.48 per cent; open forest 7.76per cent; and mangrove 0.15 per cent).According to the State of Forest Report(1999), the dense forest cover has increased

by 10,098 sq km since 1997. However, thisapparent increase in the forest cover is dueto plantation by different agencies. The Stateof Forest Report does not differentiatebetween natural forests and plantations.Therefore, these reports fail to deliver

accurate information about actual loss ofnatural forests.

Are colonial forest policiesto be blamed?

Some of our environmental activists say thatthe promotion of a few favoured species, inmany parts of India, has been carriedthrough the ironically-termed “enrichmentplantation”, in which a single commerciallyvaluable species was extensively plantedand other species eliminated. For instance,

Project Tiger

Tiger is one of the key wildlife species inthe faunal web. In 1973, the authoritiesrealised that the tiger population haddwindled to 1,827 from an estimated55,000 at the turn of the century. The majorthreats to tiger population are numerous,such as poaching for trade, shrinkinghabitat, depletion of prey base species,growing human population, etc. The tradeof tiger skins and the use of their bones intraditional medicines, especially in theAsian countries left the tiger population onthe verge of extinction. Since India andNepal provide habitat to about two-thirdsof the surviving tiger population in theworld, these two nations became primetargets for poaching and illegal trading.

“Project Tiger”, one of the well-publicised wildlife campaigns in the world,was launched in 1973. Initially, it showedsuccess as the tiger population went up to4,002 in 1985 and 4,334 in 1989. But in1993, the population of the tiger had

dropped to 3,600. There are 27 tigerreserves in India covering an area of37,761 sq km Tiger conservation has beenviewed not only as an effort to save anendangered species, but with equalimportance as a means of preservingbiotypes of sizeable magnitude. CorbettNational Park in Uttaranchal, SunderbansNational Park in West Bengal, BandhavgarhNational Park in Madhya Pradesh, SariskaWildlife Sanctuary in Rajasthan, ManasTiger Reserve in Assam and Periyar TigerReserve in Kerala are some of the tigerreserves of India.

Sacred groves - a wealth of diverseand rare species

Nature worship is an age old tribal beliefbased on the premise that all creations ofnature have to be protected. Such beliefshave preserved several virgin forests inpristine form called Sacred Groves (theforests of God and Goddesses). Thesepatches of forest or parts of large forests havebeen left untouched by the local people andany interference with them is banned.

Certain societies revere a particular treewhich they have preserved from timeimmemorial. The Mundas and the Santhal ofChhota Nagpur region worship mahua (Bassialatifolia) and kadamba (Anthocaphaluscadamba) trees, and the tribals of Orissa andBihar worship the tamarind (Tamarindusindica) and mango (Mangifera indica) treesduring weddings. To many of us, peepal andbanyan trees are considered sacred.

Indian society comprises severalcultures, each with its own set of traditionalmethods of conserving nature and itscreations. Sacred qualities are oftenascribed to springs, mountain peaks, plantsand animals which are closely protected. Youwill find troops of macaques and langursaround many temples. They are fed daily

and treated as a part of temple devotees. Inand around Bishnoi villages in Rajasthan,herds of blackbuck, (chinkara), nilgai andpeacocks can be seen as an integral part ofthe community and nobody harms them.

According to Falken Mark, a Swedish expert,water stress occurs when water availabilityis less than 1,000 cubic metre per personper day.

India’s rivers, especially the smaller ones,have all turned into toxic streams. And eventhe big ones like the Ganga and Yamunaare far from being pure. The assault onIndia’s rivers – from population growth,agricultural modernisation, urbanisation andindustrialisation – is enormous and growingby the day….. This entire life standsthreatened.

We have sown the crops in Asar

We will bring Bhadu in Bhadra

Floods have swollen the Damodar

The sailing boats cannot sail

Oh! Damodar, we fall at your feet

Reduce the floods a little

Bhadu will come a year later

Let the boats sail on your surface

Narmada Bachao Andolan or SaveNarmada Movement is a NonGovernmental Organisation (NGO) thatmobil ised tr ibal people, farmers,environmentalists and human rightsactivists against the Sardar Sarovar Dambeing built across the Narmada river inGujarat. It originally focused on theenvironmental issues related to trees thatwould be submerged under the damwater. Recently it has re-focused theaim to enable poor citizens, especiallythe oustees (displaced people) to getfull rehabil i tation faci l i t ies fromthe government.

People felt that their suffering would notbe in vain… accepted the trauma ofdisplacement believing in the promise ofirrigated fields and plentiful harvests. So,often the survivors of Rihand told us that theyaccepted their sufferings as sacrifice for thesake of their nation. But now, after thirty bitteryears of being adrift, their livelihood havingeven being more precarious, they keepasking: “Are we the only ones chosen tomake sacrifices for the nation?”

Change in cropping pattern for example from cereals to high-value crops willmean that India will have to import food. During 1960’s this would have beenseen as a disaster. But if India imports cereals while exporting high-valuecommodities, it will be following successful economies like Italy, Israel and Chile.These countries exports farm products (fruits, olives, speciality seeds and wine)and import cereals. Are we ready to take this risk? Debate the issue.

Haban comes to Guwahati with his fatherfrom a remote village.

He sees people getting into strangehouse like objects which move along theroad. He also sees a “kitchen” dragging anumber of house along with it. He is amazedand asked his father “Why don’t our housesmove like the one we saw in Guwahati, Ba?”

Ba replies, “These are not houses, theyare buses and trains. Unlike our houses theseare not made of bricks and stones, metal likeiron and alluminium are used in makingthese. They do not move on their own. Theyare driven by an engine which needs energyto work.”

A bright smile from toothpasteand minerals

Toothpaste cleans your teeth. Abrasiveminerals like silica, limestone, aluminiumoxide and various phosphate minerals do thecleaning. Fluoride which is used to reducecavities, comes from a mineral fluorite. Mosttoothpaste are made white with titaniumoxide, which comes from minerals calledrutile, ilmenite and anatase. The sparkle insome toothpastes comes from mica. Thetoothbrush and tube containing the paste aremade of plastics from petroleum. Find outwhere these minerals are found?

Dig a little deeper and find out how manyminerals are used to make a light bulb?

All living things need minerals

Life processes cannot occur without minerals.Although our mineral intake represents onlyabout 0.3 per cent of our total intake ofnutrients, they are so potent and so importantthat without them we would not be able toutilise the other 99.7 per cent of foodstuffs.

Dig a little deeper and collect “NutritionalFacts” printed on food labels.

Hazards of Mining

Have you ever wondered about the efforts the miners make in making life comfortablefor you? What are the impacts of mining onthe health of the miners and the environment?

The dust and noxious fumes inhaled byminers make them vulnerable to pulmonarydiseases. The risk of collapsing mine roofs,inundation and fires in coalmines are aconstant threat to miners.

The water sources in the region getcontaminated due to mining. Dumping of wasteand slurry leads to degradation of land, soil,and increase in stream and river pollution.

in the world of Lepchas

Oh Narak! My Lord, let me dedicate

myself to you

Let me gather your music from the

springs, the rivers, the mountains, the forests,

the insects and the animals

Let me gather your music from the sweet

breeze and offer it to you

Vanishing Forests

The dimensions of deforestation in India arestaggering. The forest cover in the country isestimated at 637,293 sq km, which is 19.39per cent of the total geographical area.(dense forest 11.48 per cent; open forest 7.76per cent; and mangrove 0.15 per cent).According to the State of Forest Report(1999), the dense forest cover has increased

by 10,098 sq km since 1997. However, thisapparent increase in the forest cover is dueto plantation by different agencies. The Stateof Forest Report does not differentiatebetween natural forests and plantations.Therefore, these reports fail to deliver

accurate information about actual loss ofnatural forests.

Are colonial forest policiesto be blamed?

Some of our environmental activists say thatthe promotion of a few favoured species, inmany parts of India, has been carriedthrough the ironically-termed �enrichmentplantation�, in which a single commerciallyvaluable species was extensively plantedand other species eliminated. For instance,

Project Tiger

Tiger is one of the key wildlife species inthe faunal web. In 1973, the authoritiesrealised that the tiger population haddwindled to 1,827 from an estimated55,000 at the turn of the century. The majorthreats to tiger population are numerous,such as poaching for trade, shrinkinghabitat, depletion of prey base species,growing human population, etc. The tradeof tiger skins and the use of their bones intraditional medicines, especially in theAsian countries left the tiger population onthe verge of extinction. Since India andNepal provide habitat to about two-thirdsof the surviving tiger population in theworld, these two nations became primetargets for poaching and illegal trading.

�Project Tiger�, one of the well-publicised wildlife campaigns in the world,was launched in 1973. Initially, it showedsuccess as the tiger population went up to4,002 in 1985 and 4,334 in 1989. But in1993, the population of the tiger had

dropped to 3,600. There are 27 tigerreserves in India covering an area of37,761 sq km Tiger conservation has beenviewed not only as an effort to save anendangered species, but with equalimportance as a means of preservingbiotypes of sizeable magnitude. CorbettNational Park in Uttaranchal, SunderbansNational Park in West Bengal, BandhavgarhNational Park in Madhya Pradesh, SariskaWildlife Sanctuary in Rajasthan, ManasTiger Reserve in Assam and Periyar TigerReserve in Kerala are some of the tigerreserves of India.

Sacred groves - a wealth of diverseand rare species

Nature worship is an age old tribal beliefbased on the premise that all creations ofnature have to be protected. Such beliefshave preserved several virgin forests inpristine form called Sacred Groves (theforests of God and Goddesses). Thesepatches of forest or parts of large forests havebeen left untouched by the local people andany interference with them is banned.

Certain societies revere a particular treewhich they have preserved from timeimmemorial. The Mundas and the Santhal ofChhota Nagpur region worship mahua (Bassialatifolia) and kadamba (Anthocaphaluscadamba) trees, and the tribals of Orissa andBihar worship the tamarind (Tamarindusindica) and mango (Mangifera indica) treesduring weddings. To many of us, peepal andbanyan trees are considered sacred.

Indian society comprises severalcultures, each with its own set of traditionalmethods of conserving nature and itscreations. Sacred qualities are oftenascribed to springs, mountain peaks, plantsand animals which are closely protected. Youwill find troops of macaques and langursaround many temples. They are fed daily

and treated as a part of temple devotees. Inand around Bishnoi villages in Rajasthan,herds of blackbuck, (chinkara), nilgai andpeacocks can be seen as an integral part ofthe community and nobody harms them.

According to Falken Mark, a Swedish expert,water stress occurs when water availabilityis less than 1,000 cubic metre per personper day.

India�s rivers, especially the smaller ones,have all turned into toxic streams. And eventhe big ones like the Ganga and Yamunaare far from being pure. The assault onIndia�s rivers � from population growth,agricultural modernisation, urbanisation andindustrialisation � is enormous and growingby the day�.. This entire life standsthreatened.

Dams areclassified according to structure, intendedpurpose or height.

We have sown the crops in Asar

We will bring Bhadu in Bhadra

Floods have swollen the Damodar

The sailing boats cannot sail

Oh! Damodar, we fall at your feet

Reduce the floods a little

Bhadu will come a year later

Let the boats sail on your surface

Narmada Bachao Andolan or SaveNarmada Movement is a NonGovernmental Organisation (NGO) thatmobil ised tr ibal people, farmers,environmentalists and human rightsactivists against the Sardar Sarovar Dambeing built across the Narmada river inGujarat. It originally focused on theenvironmental issues related to trees thatwould be submerged under the damwater. Recently it has re-focused theaim to enable poor citizens, especiallythe oustees (displaced people) to getfull rehabil i tation faci l i t ies fromthe government.

People felt that their suffering would notbe in vain� accepted the trauma ofdisplacement believing in the promise ofirrigated fields and plentiful harvests. So,often the survivors of Rihand told us that theyaccepted their sufferings as sacrifice for thesake of their nation. But now, after thirty bitteryears of being adrift, their livelihood havingeven being more precarious, they keepasking: �Are we the only ones chosen tomake sacrifices for the nation?�

She often helps them in irrigatingthe fields with water running through abamboo canal from the nearby spring. Sheloves the surroundings and wants to stayhere as long as she can, but this little girlhas no idea about the declining fertility ofthe soil and her family�s search for fresh apatch of land in the next season.

Change in cropping pattern for example from cereals to high-value crops willmean that India will have to import food. During 1960�s this would have beenseen as a disaster. But if India imports cereals while exporting high-valuecommodities, it will be following successful economies like Italy, Israel and Chile.These countries exports farm products (fruits, olives, speciality seeds and wine)and import cereals. Are we ready to take this risk? Debate the issue.

Haban comes to Guwahati with his fatherfrom a remote village.

He sees people getting into strangehouse like objects which move along theroad. He also sees a �kitchen� dragging anumber of house along with it. He is amazedand asked his father �Why don�t our housesmove like the one we saw in Guwahati, Ba?�

Ba replies, �These are not houses, theyare buses and trains. Unlike our houses theseare not made of bricks and stones, metal likeiron and alluminium are used in makingthese. They do not move on their own. Theyare driven by an engine which needs energyto work.�

A bright smile from toothpasteand minerals

Toothpaste cleans your teeth. Abrasiveminerals like silica, limestone, aluminiumoxide and various phosphate minerals do thecleaning. Fluoride which is used to reducecavities, comes from a mineral fluorite. Mosttoothpaste are made white with titaniumoxide, which comes from minerals calledrutile, ilmenite and anatase. The sparkle insome toothpastes comes from mica. Thetoothbrush and tube containing the paste aremade of plastics from petroleum. Find outwhere these minerals are found?

Dig a little deeper and find out how manyminerals are used to make a light bulb?

All living things need minerals

Life processes cannot occur without minerals.Although our mineral intake represents onlyabout 0.3 per cent of our total intake ofnutrients, they are so potent and so importantthat without them we would not be able toutilise the other 99.7 per cent of foodstuffs.

Hazards of Mining

Have you ever wondered about the efforts the miners make in making life comfortablefor you? What are the impacts of mining onthe health of the miners and the environment?

The dust and noxious fumes inhaled byminers make them vulnerable to pulmonarydiseases. The risk of collapsing mine roofs,inundation and fires in coalmines are aconstant threat to miners.

The water sources in the region getcontaminated due to mining. Dumping of wasteand slurry leads to degradation of land, soil,and increase in stream and river pollution.
