Rather than protection of trees from cutting, what is the significance of Chipko Movement?

Asked by Topperlearning User 22nd November 2013, 3:41 AM
Answered by Expert
Answer:

‘Chipko Movement’ not only stopped the cutting of trees but also focused upon the importance of trees. Now, trees are regarded not only the source of timber but as an important resource for soil, water and oxygen. This movement also provided a slogan of five Fs i.e. food, fodder, fuel, fibre and fertilizer.

You are posted as head of district which is severely affected by water crisis.  The situation has worsened to the extent that it has disrupted the law and order.  Presently cricket tournament is going on in the country. Matches are held all  over the country. You get a call from the state cricket association that a cricket  match is to be held in your district. A good sum of money is offered for the  match. However when you discuss the matter with your colleagues they  suggest you to decline the offer as the district is facing severe water scarcity  and this would further add to the problem as a large volume of water will be  needed for irrigating the pitch. If you accept the offer, you would get a good sum  of money which would compensate for the water used for irrigating the pitch. ¤ Will you accept the offer?  ¤ What are options before you? Explain the merits and demerits of each option.  ¤ Also suggest what course of action will you take?
