Trees and Communities
There is a fun way to remember the most important points in forest preservation called TREES which means...
■ Teach others about the importance of the environment and how they can help save rainforests.
■ Restore damaged ecosystems by planting trees on land where forests have been cut down.
■ Encourage people to live in a way that doesn't hurt the environment.
■ Establish parks to protect rainforests and wildlife.
■ Support companies that operate in ways that minimise damage to the environment.
Communities play an important role in sustainable forest management. By helping local people manage forest resources—whether it is rattan or mahogany—WWF supports local economies while securing forest ecosystems.
The Government of India has made laws to prevent the unnecessary felling of trees. The government has decided to declare certain forests as protected areas. These protected areas are called Reserves or Wildlife Sanctuaries. Here no one is allowed to hunt animals. There are about 150 wildlife sanctuaries in India. The government has made plans to grow more trees. Van Mahotsava is celebrated every year to plant more trees. Thousands of school children participate in the Van Mahotsava and plant trees every year. Chipko Movement and Narmada Bachao Andolan are some movements to save forests and wildlife in India. Chipko Movement was started by Shri Sunderlal Bahuguna in Tehri District of Uttarakhand. The women of a village in Tehri clung to the trees and protected them from being cut down. Shrimati Medha Patkar started a movement named Narmada Bachao Andolan to save the forests and wildlife in the Narmada region.
