Question
The image shown below is of a sacred grove found in India. Explain how has human involvement helped in the preservation of these biodiversity-rich regions.
Solution
India’s history of religious and cultural traditions emphasized the protection of nature. In many cultures, tracts of forest are set aside, and all the trees and wildlife within are venerated and given total protection. Sacred groves in many states are the last refuges for a large number of rare and threatened plants.
