You must have heard about the famous 'Chipko movement', a forest conservation movement that began in India
in 1973 in which the demonstrators hugged the trees to prevent them from being cut down. Conduct a thorough
discussion of how they fought non-violently to stop the destruction of forests with your teacher and among your
classmates. Also research other such well-known movements in which demonstrators stood up for the preservation
of nature.
Create a presentation on 'Vandana Shiva'. Vandana Shiva, an Indian scholar, environmental activist, and world-
renowned author, among other things, has been hailed as one of the leading voices in the field of green living. Her
support for Ecofeminism, a political movement that promotes a collaborative environmental society—demanding
that women be recognised equal and active members—is one of her most notable achievements. "We are either
going to have a future where women lead the way to make peace with the Earth, or we are not going to have a human
future at all," Shiva famously said. Her published work, including publications such as Earth Democracy: Justice,
Sustainability, and Peace, would be an excellent starting point for your environmental journey.
