Do we need adjustments to current policies? New laws? Or do we need a change of paradigm? Do human beings have a right to set limits to how much human beings encroach on wildlife habitat? If so, you should say so. That right will not assert itself. gaiabrain.blogspot.com/2010/…

They're not just a natural resource. We need forests alive for us to live.

A huge road has been cleared to slice through & seriously damage Karnataka's Kali Tiger Reserve. Two other roads, one through the Corbett TR & the other through the Pakke TR are also being pushed. The link between biodiversity & climate is lost on India. @IPBES @SanctuaryAsia
