Abstract

Both India and China are ancient civilisations both possessing characteristic indigenous knowledge of conservation of natural ecosystems. The Chinese have recognised the potential of traditional knowledge and regard religious forests as an asset and an important tool for rehabilitation of degraded soil. Unfortunately in India, a similar revival is yet to happen. Few efforts have been made to preserve and restore the pristine glory of forests and even fewer for rehabilitation of degraded land.
