Climate Change is caused by a number of things. The effect that climate has on extinction is very big. The biodiverse Earth can't keep up with the rapid changes in temperature and climate. The species are not used to severe weather conditions and long seasons, or a changing chemical make- up of their surroundings.
As more species die, it is only making it more difficult for the survivors to find food. The warmer climates we are used to present-day are perfect for diseases and epidemics to thrive. Each species has defense mechanisms like immunities and the ability to fight disease. With the changing climate and landscape certain species are losing their ability to fend off disease. They are becoming more susceptible to disease and epidemics, which can lead to their eventual extinction.
Even if we want to conserve our vast forest and wildlife resources, it is rather difficult to manage, control and regulate them. In India much of its forest and wildlife resources are either owned or managed by the government through the forest department or other government departments.
These are classified under the following categories: Reserved Forests More than half of the total forest land has been declared Reserved Forests. Reserved forests are regarded as the most valuable as far as the conservation of forest and wildlife resources are concerned.
Protected Forests Almost one-third of the total forest area is Protected Forest, as declared by the Forest Department. This forest land are protected from any further depletion. Unclassed Forests These are other forests and wetlands belonging to both government and private individuals and communities. Forest conservation act, The Forest Conservation Act was enacted to help conserve the country's forests.
It strictly restricts and regulates the de-reservation of forests or use of forest land for non-forest purposes without the prior approval of Central Government. To this end the Act lays down the pre-requisites for the diversion of forest land for non-forest purposes.
Initially, it showed success as the Tiger production went up to 4, in and 4, in Tiger conservation has been viewed not only as an effort to save endangered species, but with equal importance as a means of preserving biotypes of sizeable magnitude.

The demand for minerals is increasing at a fast rate with the increase in population and also with the increase in their consumption. Types of mineral resources are as below:. The world generates enough food and products of agriculture which more than sufficient but still many parts of the world is suffering from the lack of food and the main reason for this is the change in climate.
The present situation of food resources is defined by few modern driving forces and they are responsible for changing the food production, food markets, and food consumption. They are as below:.
In the causes of world food problems has few factors and in them, the decline in the availability of water and overgrazing are the two factors.
The decline in the availability of water warns everyone that there will be a lack of water in the agricultural land by Overgrazing tells about the enhancement in the cattle production which heavily graze the forests or grasslands and this leads to the denude the land area.
The species was declared extinct in India long back in What are the negative factors that cause such fearful depletion of the flora and fauna? Are colonial forest policies to be blamed? This is known as enrichment plantation. The name is most prominently given to any of various coniferous trees and shrubs in the genus Taxus.
The needles and the bark is also used as a sedative and a remedy for respiratory illness in the Unani medicine. The species is under great threat due to over-exploitation. In the last one decade, thousands of yew trees have dried up in various parts of Himachal Pradesh and Arunachal Pradesh From 9 tiger reserves since its formative years, the Project Tiger coverage has increased to 47 at present, spread out in 18 of our tiger range states.
This amounts to around 2. Due to concerted efforts under Project Tiger, at present India has the distinction of having the maximum number of tigers in the world as per assessment, when compared to other tiger range countries. However, there is a decline in tiger occupancy Grazing of animals and cultivation of crops are not allowed in these forests.
They are also known as permanent forest estates. Right of grazing and cultivation is allowed with certain restriction. These forests belong to government and private individuals. Role of Community in Conserving Forest and Wildlife Community or local people are very helpful in conserving biodiversity i. Many communities live in the forest. Forest is home of many traditional people.
Beej Bachao Andolan and Navdanya movements have also been started in Himalaya.
