Humans have a big role to play in conserving wildlife and forests:

• Social forestry depends on people to plant trees on barren land, and maintain parks and green belts in urban areas.

• Farmers should invest in Farm forestry. They can plant trees on the margins of their farmlands and around their cow-sheds. These trees have commercial and ecological benefits.

• People should participate in environmental movements and pressure the government to pass stricter regulations to control industrial pollution.

• We should refuse buying exotic products made from animal skins or teeth.

• Community forestry, or rising of trees on community lands is necessary to reduce stress on existing forests. This includes temple lands, pastures, areas along railway lines etc.
