Degradation of land is a cause of worry." Give one reason to support the statement. |
|
Answer» Land degradation is caused by multiple forces, including extreme weather conditions particularly drought, and human activities that pollute or degrade the quality of soils and land utility negatively affecting food production, livelihoods, and the production and provision of other ecosystem goods and services. Threats to land integrity: Land degradation has accelerated during the 20th century due to increasing and combined pressures of agricultural and livestock production (over-cultivation, overgrazing, forest conversion), urbanization, deforestation, and extreme weather events such as droughts and coastal surges which salinate land. Desertification, is a form of land degradation, by which fertile land becomes desert. What does land degradation mean for health? These social and environmental processes are stressing the world's arable lands and pastures essential for the provision of food and water and quality air. Land degradation and desertification can affect human health through complex pathways. As land is degraded and in some places deserts expand, food production is reduced, water sources dry up and populations are pressured to move to more hospitable areas. The potential impacts of desertification on health include: Higher threats of malnutrition from reduced food and water supplies;more water- and food-borne diseases that result from poor hygiene and a lack of clean water;respiratory diseases caused by atmospheric dust from wind erosion and other air pollutants;the spread of infectious diseases as populations migrate. |

Why did France take up the idea of civilizing mission during mid- nineteenth century? Giveone reason. |
|
Answer» The French people took the idea of civilization mission during the mid nineteenth century because they wanted to spread their culture around the world. In an attempt to achieve this, they made people in their colonies to learn French language. This idea of civilization was to realize that the colonies adopted western culture fully and to achieve this, the French colonizers made sure that their culture, language and education was adopted by the colonies. |
|
| 1407. |
ORWhy did France take up the idea ofcivilizing mission during mid- nineteenth century? Giveone reason |
|
Answer» The intellectual origins of the mission civilisatrice can be traced back the Christian tradition dating from the Middle Ages. European thinkers had naturalized social change by using the development metaphor. In the eighteenth century, history became to be seen as an unilinear unending inevitable process of social evolutionism with the European nations running ahead.[1] Colonialists saw the "backward" nations as intrinsically incapable. "Progressive" thinkers like the Marquis de Condorcet postulated a holy duty to help those peoples "which, to civilize themselves, wait only to receive the means from us, to find brothers among Europeans and to become their friends and disciples".[2] Evolutionist views survived colonialism. Modernization theorists declared that traditional customs had to be destroyed, traditional societies had to adapt[3] or to disappear.[4] Development criticism sees development therefore as continuation of the colonial civilizing mission. To become civilized has always meant to become "like us", therefore "Civilizing" now meant that in the long run all societies had to become consumer societies[5] and renounce their native traditions and habits. |

Nehru was very passionate about the welfare of children,he would frequently launch programmes,to provide meals and few daily necessities for school going children. He had launched a number of welfare programs for children in his tenure.These programs ensured and targeted at providing safety and the 'necessary' requirements of the children. Nehru believed in education being a key to success,therefore he had launched various education missions and schemes to make people aware of the importance of education,indirectly benefiting children.He pioneered the education of the youth and believed they were the'Future of the country'. Overall,Children's Day is merely a way or an excuse to celebrate the birth anniversary of the legend.There is no definite or significant contribution he has made for children. |

women too manage the administrative affairs effectivelyou support it ?How do(T.Q-S) |
|
Answer» When a woman manages all the home chores by herself why not the administrative affairs. Each woman is so powerful that she can actually govern the country. Women in our country are not given the chance to study or do anything good for the nation. Only the city girls attend schools regularly. With this attitude of the society, India will always have the same constant status it has had for the past 70 years: developing country. Superstitions and beliefs have been controlling people for long. If we want a more advanced India and fewer women harassment, let the women rise. Giving them one chance is not going to deteriorate the whole country. Our history tells us about the great women. And what are we doing? Kicking the good past away just to find a wicked, savaged and rowdy world ahead. |

write the main features of British art forms |
|
Answer» British colonial rule had a great impact on Indian art. As a whole, the European advent was marked by a relative insensitivity to native art traditions; former Indian patrons of art became less wealthy and influential, and Western art became more ubiquitous as the British Empire established schools of art in major cities, such as the Bombay Art Society in 1888. The Company style of paintings, for example, became common, created by Indian artists working for European patrons of the East India Company . By 1858, the British government took over the task of administration of India under the British Raj. The fusion of Indian traditions with European style at this time became evident in architectural styles. Toward the end of the 19th century, rising nationalism attempted a conscious revival of Indian art. |

Write the main features of movements led by Gandhiji |
|
Answer» The ‘Father of the Nation’, Mahatma Gandhi, born on 2nd October 1869, was an eminent leader of the pre-independence period. He is a much revered leader and is considered as the international symbol of non-violence and peace. He drew such immense admiration for his contributions worldwide that his date of birth is observed as the ‘International Day of Non-Violence’. A known figure of the Indian Nationalist Movement, Gandhi was the leading figure in almost all the freedom movements whether in India or in South Africa. He followed an ideology of non-violence on which all his campaigns were based.Through his freedom movements like the non-cooperation movement, civil disobedience, or the Champaran movement, Gandhi always stood for the human rights.He gave his sweat and blood for the attainment of Indian independence from the clutches of the colonial rule. With the support of millions of Indian masses, he finally took India’s freedom movement to the paths of victory. Gandhi has been a true inspiration for the past generations and also for the generations to come with his views on non-violence, tolerance, truth, and social welfare. On the occasion of his 150th birth anniversary, let’s take a walk down the lane and have a look at some of the major nationalist movements led by him during his lifetime. 1. Champaran Movement (1917) The Champaran rebellion in Bihar was the first active involvement of Gandhi in the Indian freedom struggle. When Gandhi returned to India in 1915, the country was reeling under the tyrannous colonial rule. The British forced the farmers to grow indigo and other cash crops on their fertile land, and then sell these crops to them at a much cheaper price. The situation became more gruesome for the farmers due to harsh weather conditions and levy of heavy taxes pushing them towards abject poverty. Having heard of the situation of farmers at Champaran, Gandhi immediately paid a visit to this district in April 1917. He adopted the approach of civil disobedience movement and launched demonstrations and strikes against the landlords bringing them down on their very knees. As a result, they signed an agreement in which they granted control and compensations to the farmers, and canceled the hikes in revenue and collection. The success of this movement earned Gandhi the status of Mahatma. 2. Kheda Movement (1918) Kheda movement was the consequence of the financial atrocities afflicted by the British landlords on the farmers of the Kheda village in Gujarat. The village was massively affected by the floods and famine in 1918 which resulted in the destruction of the crop yields. The farmers requested the British government to exempt them from the payment of taxes but the authorities refused. Under the leadership of Gandhi and Vallabhbhai Patel, the farmers launched a crusade against the government and pledged for the non-payment of taxes. As a result, the government threatened the peasants with the seizure of their land but they remain undeterred. After five months of persistent struggle, in May 1918, the British government let go of the payment of taxes by the farmers until the deluge got over and also returned the seized properties of the farmers. 3. Khilafat Movement (1919)After the World War I, several humiliating allegations were placed on the Caliph and the Ottoman Empire. The Muslims became fearful for the safety of their Caliph and launched khilafat movement under the guidance of Gandhi to fight against the British government to restore the collapsing status of the Caliph in Turkey. Gandhi approached the Muslim community in 1919 for their political support in India’s freedom struggle and in return supported the community in launching the Khilafat movement. He became a notable spokesperson of the All India Muslim Conference and returned the medals received from the British Empire in South Africa. The success of this movement made him the national leader in no time. Like my answer if you find it useful! |

Rio de janeiro earth summit ,1992 |
|
Answer» In June 1992 representatives from 172 nations convened in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, for the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), commonly called the Earth Summit. The Earth Summit was an unprecedented meeting of representatives, including 108 heads of state, 2,400 representatives from various non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and nearly 10,000 journalists. An additional 17,000 NGO representatives attended a parallel NGO forum that provided recommendations to the Earth Summit. The massive interest and participation of nations and NGOs in the Earth Summit indicated a shift in global attitudes toward the environment. Scientific evidence gathered in the second half of the twentieth century indicated that human activity was taking a toll on the environment. The scientific evidence also indicated that pollution and depletion of natural resources that occurred in one country could have a profound effect on the environment of other nations or the entire planet. At the Earth Summit, world leaders devised plans and policies to protect the environment by involving national and local governments and NGOs. |
