Question 4 of 5
4. Question
1 pointsConsider the following statements regarding Open Natural Ecosystems (ONEs) in India.
1. Open Natural Ecosystems (ONEs) are diverse ecosystems which include woodland savannas, scrublands and grasslands, to rocky outcrops, ravines and dunes.
2. The Environment (Protection) Act, 1986 protects against the diversion of ONEs for development purposes.
3. They also have animal species like black buck and great Indian bustard.
Which of the above statements is/are correct?Correct
a) 1, 3
When we recently mapped these Open Natural Ecosystems (ONEs), we discovered that they are staggeringly diverse, ranging from woodland savannas, scrublands and grasslands, to rocky outcrops, ravines and dunes.
ONEs also have a remarkable assemblage of animal species, many of which, such as the black buck and the critically endangered great Indian bustard, occur only in the Indian subcontinent.
India’s ONEs continue to be misunderstood, misrepresented, and destroyed. Successive governments have carried forward a colonial legacy of terming ONEs as ‘wastelands’ and sought to make them ‘productive’; they have tried to ‘develop’ them, thereby incentivising their erasure. Unlike with forests, there are no conservation laws that protect against diversion of biodiversity-rich ONEs.
