THE CASE STUDY OF 8 UNSUNG HEROES IN CONSERVATION OF NATURAL RESOURCES

In this globalized era, we are only talking about climate change, Global Warming, safeguarding our natural environment, preservation of biodiversity and conservation of our depleting earth. But practically nothing much is done. But time has now come to think, re-think and do something ourselves to save our earth. The history speaks about the work of stalwarts in environmental movement like Wangari Mathai for Green Belt Movement, Dr. Al Gore from USA for An inconvenient Truth, Sunderlal Bahuguna for Chipko movement, Ramkrishna Hegde for Appico and Dr. Rajendra Singh for water movement and Sadguru for his Global save soil movement. So this paper is an attempt in this direction depicting the case studies of five unsung heroes from India who are trying to conserve and preserve biodiversity ,fight the pollution and the effects of global warming by small gestures in their day to day life without expecting anything from anybody in return . They are just interested in making all of us aware about it. The lesson for us to learn is that we should not ask the govt. to do something for us, rather we should do something to save ourselves. We should change our Environment Harming habits
