About the Book

All life is sustained by the ecosystem – trees, shrubs, herbs, micro flora and fauna. This eco-system is very fragile and takes millennia to evolve. Easy to destroy, the system is being constantly destroyed/degraded. A tree provides vital life-sustaining services such as oxygenating air while mopping greenhouse gases/pollution, harvesting rain/snow/hail and sustaining water sources, providing food security, air conditioning and many more. Trees Incredible – Life Sustaining Lives is a comprehensive understanding of trees. Taking a holistic view, this book discusses the necessary linkages and interactions between natural elements and vegetation/trees in a harmonious life sustaining environment. A candid introspection and retrospection reveals that we have violated Article 48A and Article 51A (g) of the Indian Constitution by failing to protect our natural environment including trees, forests, lakes, rivers and wildlife … by failing to recognise the intrinsic dependence of peoples’ wellness and growth on Nature and jeopardised citizen’s ‘fundamental rights to life’, ‘clean air, water and health’ guaranteed under Article 21 of the Constitution. The book shows that it is time the people wake up to save what providence has so bountifully given them in this land of ours – a peoples’ movement is needed to make a coordinated effort to ensure clean air, water, food security, and healthy environment for all. Madan Mohan Pant (Born in Musooree on 5 March 1935) holds a doctorate in Natural Resources Economics from the School of Natural Resources, The University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, U.S.A. In the course of a distinguished career in the Indian Forest Service he worked in various capacities in the Uttar Pradesh Forest Department and was Director of the Indira Gandhi National Forest Academy, Dehradun. From 1985 - 1995, he worked with the FAO as Chief Technical Advisor, Consultant, Coordinator, Team Leader, in Bhutan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Ethiopia and Jordan.
