In the beginning
of 21st century, our earth got stressed so much that it retaliated
man's unsustainable consumption of its resources. As a result,
the sudden climate changes are causing unprecedented calamities
for mankind. Unless the human race learns suitable lessons
form nature’s fury, further devastation is on the anvil.
The consequences will have to be felt by future generations.
Hence the youth of today has to be educated for environmental
protection.
As a part of such environmental education, we started this
website. The basis for the content in this site is UGC Syllabus
for Environmental Studies prepared for under-graduate students.
These topics are also the main issues discussed at Johannes
Berg World summit in 2002 by all international participants.
This site provides Frequently Asked Questions, Case Studies
and Fieldwork material for student’s better preparation.
The readers are asked to share their knowledge by contributing
articles related to the topics so that they will be published
in this site if they are simple and useful for the targeted
sections of people.
This website also contains interesting features such as ECO-IQ,
ECO Calendar and Cartoons for enhancing the reader’s
knowledge.
The readers are also requested to send their feedback for
further improvements of this site. Do not hesitate to ask
us questions, which will stimulate our thought and deepen
our knowledge.
We look forward for your valuable inputs for continuous development
of this website to the benefit of all. |
