Every week, Eco India brings you stories that inspire you to build a cleaner, greener and better tomorrow. Our top story this week looks at how the Jabarkhet Nature Reserve in Uttarakhand, one of the country’s few privately-owned forest reserves, is an effort by conservationist Dr Sejal Worah to use the small patch of forest land to connect conservation with livelihood.

Great story on how a forest can be preserved for the benefit of the local community in a sustainable "sensible" manner...

The decision of not creating homestay or camping was a big change and surely it will help locals make the visitors part of their culture, good and lifestyle, also giving them warning source.

I'm from a hilly village in Uttarakhand, and there is no forest in our village, every hill is stepped farmed, even if nothing grows there and the remaining few pine forest is burned daily for no reason! Creating a huge amount of smoke and heat.

You can make an impact. Talk to your local village panchayat or anyone in your village who has any kind of influence. Explain it to them how reforestation will help the local economy and such.. may be you can make something happen, who knows?

Ya a beautiful conservation model, you have money. You take a stake in this private forest, but with conditions. You generate jobs to locals, being a city dwellers, you have the opportunity to protect this environment. And now a days buying land is a costly affair, instead we can share the land and care it.

India has 4x the population of the US, yet its people live on 1/3 the size of land. It has a per capita carbon footprint of 2.5 tons vs the US per capita of 15 tons. What ever land remains is precious for wildlife especially that in the bio diverse foothills of the Himalayas.
