NCERT MOST IMPORTANT QUESTIONS ON ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES

Question 1.
What is meant by ‘Global Commons’? Give any two examples of Global commons. Why is it very essential to save them?
Answer:
Meaning of Global Commons: For this, see Textbook Question No. 5.
Essentiality to save Global Commons:

1. There is a constant reduction in the total amount of ozone in the Earth’s stratosphere posing a risk to ecosystems and human health.
2. Coastal pollution is increasing globally. The coastal waters are becoming polluted due to land-based activities.

Question 2.
What is the significance of the Kyoto Protocol? Is India a signatory to this protocol?
Answer:
Kyoto Protocol is an international agreement setting targets for industrialized countries to cut their greenhouse gas emissions. The protocol was agreed to in 1997 in Kyoto, Japan-based on principles set by United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. India, China, and other developing countries were exempted from the requirements of the Kyoto Protocol because, in developing countries, per capita emissions are very low. However, India signed Kyoto Protocol in August 2002.

Question 3.
Explain India’s position on the environmental issues facing the contemporary world.
Answer:
India signed and ratified the 1997 Kyoto Protocol in August 2002. At the G-8 meeting in June 2005, India pointed out that the per capita emission rates of the developing countries are a tiny fraction of those in the developed world. India is of the view that the major responsibility of curbing emission depends upon the developed countries, which have accumulated emission for a long period of time. India’s international negotiating position depends on the principles of historical responsibility, as enshrined in UNFCCC. The Indian government is already participating in global efforts through a number of programs. The Electricity Act of 2003 encourages the use of renewable energy.

Question 4.
Explain ‘Agenda 21’ and ‘sustainable development’ as discussed at the Rio Summit.
Answer:

1. Agenda 21: The Rio Summit held in 1992 produced conventions regarding climate change, forestry, biodiversity and recommended a list of development called ‘Agenda 21’.
2. Sustainable Development: Sustainable development means economic growth with ecological responsibility.

Question 5.
Explain any four steps taken by the Government of India to curb the emission of greenhouse gases.
Answer:

1. India signed and ratified the 1997 Kyoto Protocol in August 2002.
2. The Energy Conservation Act, passed in 2001, outlines initiatives to improve energy efficiency.
3. The Electricity Act of 2003 encourages the use of renewable energy.
4. Importing natural gas and encouraging the adoption of clean coal technologies show that India has been making real efforts.

Question 6.
Analyze India’s stand on any three environmental issues.
Answer:
1. India is of the view that the major responsibility of curbing emission rates lies with the developed countries, which have accumulated emissions over a long period of time.

2. India’s international negotiating position relies heavily on principles of historical responsibility. This acknowledges that developed countries are responsible for the most historical and current greenhouse gas emissions.

3. India is wary of the recent discussions within UNFCCC about introducing binding commitments on rapidly industrializing countries, such as Brazil, China, and India, to reduce their green house gas emissions. India feels this contravenes the very spirit of UNFCCC.

Question 7.
Explain the meaning of ’Global Commons’. How are environmental concerns becoming important in global politics?
Answer:
Meaning of Global Commons: Global commons are those areas, objects, or resources of the world that are not part of the exclusive jurisdiction of any one state or individual. Examples of Global Commons are park or river, earth’s atmosphere, the ocean floor, air space, outer space, Antarctica. Global Commons and global environment are also called world heritage because they are passed on by the present generation to the next generation and so on.

Environmental concerns are becoming important in Global Politics:

The issues related to global environmental protection have become the priority concern of states since 1990 due to the following reasons:

1. The fertility of the agricultural land is significantly being reduced, due to overgrazing the grasslands have been depleted and the overharvesting has reduced the supply of fish. Due to excessive pollution, the water bodies have been adversely affected.
2. According to Human Development Report, 2006 of the United Nations Development Programme about 1.2 billion people in developing countries have no access to safe drinking water and about 2.6 billion people have no sanitation facilities.
3. Natural forests are being cut down as large-scale and have people being displaced thus leading to the loss of biodiversity.
4. There is a constant reduction in the total amount of ozone in the Earth’s stratosphere posing a risk to ecosystems and human health.
5. Coastal pollution is increasing globally. The coastal waters are becoming polluted due to land-based activities.

Question 8.
Define the ‘Indigenous People’ and highlight any two threats to their survival.
Answer:
Indigenous people are the descendants of the native dwellers who have been living in a particular territory before the people of different cultures or ethnic origins arrived from other parts to capture that particular territory. The United Nations defines an indigenous population as comprising the descendants of people who inhabited the present territory of a country at the time when persons of a different culture or ethnic origin arrived there from other parts of the world and overcame them. Indigenous people are illiterate and poor. They do not know how to protect their rights. The land is only the source of their income. Thus, the loss of land also means the loss of an economic resource base.

Following are the two threats to the survival of indigenous people:

1. Poverty is an important threat to indigenous people.
2. They entirely depend on the resources and its continuous shortage of natural resources of indigenous people is another threat to their life.

Question 9.
Read the following passage and answer the following questions.

There is a growing significance of environmental as well as resource issues in world politics. If the various governments take steps to check environmental degradation, these issues will have political consequences. Most of them are such that no single government can address them fully. At the Rio summit, the first world countries were pursuing a different environmental agenda than the third world countries. The Indian government is already participating in global efforts through a number of programs. India’s International negotiating position relies heavily on the principles of UNFCCC.

(i) How the first World countries pursued a
different environmental agenda from the third world countries?
Answer:
The first world countries were mainly concerned with ozone depletion and Global warming. They wanted everyone (country) to be equally responsible for ecological conservation. While Third world countries felt that much of the environmental degradation is the product of first world countries.

(ii) The issue of global warming has deeply affected the world. Substantiate the statement with three examples.
Answer:
(A) Rise in global temperature
(B) catastrophic consequences for life on earth
(C) responsible for natural disasters.

Question 10.
Analyse any three threats to the global environment these days.
Answer:
Following are the reasons for environmental pollution.
1. Increase in Population. Rapid Population growth is the major factor responsible for environmental pollution Rapid growing population requires residential areas which lead to deforestation. A fast-growing population leads to overexploitation of natural resources. Their consumption of resources is more than production. Mineral resources such as petroleum coal and iron etc. also experience faster exhaustion. It has been rightly observed that much of environmental destruction in the form of deforestation and desertification can be traced to humankind’s struggle to feed a rapidly growing population.

2. Deforestation and Soil Erosion. Forest plays an important role to make human life prosperous. Forest creates balance in nature. It plays important role in the economic development of the country. Trees provide fuelwood, construction material, a healthy atmosphere, and fresh air to breathe in. But to meet with increasing demands of the population, to provide more residential areas, trees are filled. The shortage of fuelwood is leading to deforestation. The cutting off more and more trees lead to air pollution. Because trees are the only source to convert carbon dioxide into oxygen i.e. a necessity of life. Thus due to deforestation the carbon dioxide content of the air is increasing. Deforestation also affects rainfall patterns.

Moreover, deforestation leads to soil erosion. Deforestation affects wildlife. Cutting of forest causes loss of natural house of wild being. Thus deforestation adversely affects the ecosystem and causes environmental degradation.

3. Industrialisation. Rapid Industrialisation has caused environmental pollution. The indiscriminate and mushrooming growth of industries in and around the residential areas has complicated the scenario. The smoke from the Chimneys, the untreated effluents discharged in river and canals, and the mixing of chemical

NCERT MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION ON SECURITY IN THE CONTEMPORARY WORLD

Question 1.
What is meant by alliance building as a component of traditional security policy? What are its advantages?
Answer:
Alliance building is the fourth element of traditional security policy. An association or an alliance is a partnership of states which coordinate with each other to deter and defend against military attack.

Advantages of alliance building as a component or traditional security policy are:

• Most alliances are made in written treaties and are based on a fairly clear identification who makes the threat.
• Alliances are formed based on national interest and can change when national interests change.
• Countries form alliances to increase their effective power relative to another country or alliance.

Question 2.
Explain the concept of human security.
Answer:
The concept of human security is concerned with protection of people. Though, human security and state security are often considered the same, but secure states do not mean secure people. Protection of citizens from foreign attack is necessary condition for the security of people, but not a sufficient one. During the last 100 years, there have been more killing by their own governments rather than foreign armies.

According to proponents (supporters) of human security, the basic goal is the protection of individuals. There are however, differences over the threats from which individuals are to be protected. There are basically two categories of proponents.

They are :

• Narrow concept
• Broad concept

Question 3.
Differentiate between the traditional and the non-traditional notions of security.
Answer:
The differences between traditional and non-traditional security are:

Traditional Security	Non-Traditional Security
Traditional security deals with use or threat of use of military.	Non-traditional security go beyond military threats and include threats that endanger human existence.
Traditional threats to security endanger the core values of sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of state.	Non-traditional security is concerned with threats that endanger the human than state.
Under traditional concept, major focus is on use of military force.	Under non-traditional security military is used as a last resort.
Under traditional security, force is both principal threat to security and means to achieve security.	Under non-traditional concept threat is general environment.

Question 4.
Distinguish between the internal and external notion of traditional security.
Answer:
Differences between the internal and external notion of traditional security are

Internal Notion	External Notion
Although internal security was a part of the concerns of the governments historically, however, it was not given much importance.	Mostly when we talk of security in traditional conception, it is about external security wherein greatest threats is from another country.
Internal security mainly concerned with maintaining internal peace and order. And protecting the country from separatist threats from within.	External notion of security is concerned with protecting sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity from military threats of another country.
Under internal notion of traditional security, security policy of states is either suppression of separatist demands or adjustment of their demands.	Under external notion, security policy are-deference, defence, balance of power and alliance building.
Internal wars and conflicts now make up more than 95 per cent of all armed conflicts fought anywhere in the world.	Although External security threats still have been major concern for governments, however frequency of war between countries has been reduced greatly now.
Internal security problems and threats can be regulated by acknowledged central authority that is government.	In case of external security conflicts, war, and threats there is no acknowledged central authority that stands above everyone else. UNO authority is only to the extent that member state allows.

Question 5.
Explain any four components of India’s security strategy.
Answer:
The security strategy of India involves four components:
1. Strengthening military capability This is the very first component of Indian security strategy because India has been involved in conflict with its neighbours. It is surrounded by nuclear-armed countries in the South Asian region, so India first tested a nuclear device in 1974 was justified.

2. Strengthening International Norms and Institutions India took initiatives to bring about a universal and non-discriminatory non-proliferation regime in which all countries would have the same rights and obligations with respect to weapons of mass destruction.

3. Internal security The very third components of Indian security strategy is geared towards meeting security challenges within the country. Several militant groups from areas such as the Nagaland, Mizoram, Punjab and Kashmir among others have, from time to time, sought to break away from India.

4. Development of economy India wants to develop its economy in a way that the vast mass of citizen are lifted out of poverty and misery and huge economic inequalities are not allowed to exist.

Question 6.
What is meant by global poverty? Suggest any two ways to reduce disparity between the poor and the rich at the global level.
Answer:
Global poverty is another source of insecurity. At present, world population is 7 billion which is likely to rise upto 9-10 billion in upcomming decades. Currently, half of the world’s population growth occurs in just six countries India, China, Pakistan, Nigeria, Bangladesh and Indonesia. Among the world’s poorest countries, population is expected to triple in the next 50 years, whereas population is shrinking in many rich countries.

High per capita income and low population growth make rich state or rich social groups get richer, whereas low incomes and high population growth reinforce each other to make poor states and poor groups get poorer. Globally, this disparity contributes to the gap between the Northern and Southern countries of world. Poverty in the South has also been causing large-scale migration to seek a better life and economic opportunities.

Two ways to reduce disparity between the poor and rich at the global level are :
1. Quality education Provides children knowledge and life skills to realise their full potential. Education is a means through which employable skills are imparted. To remove poverty globally, governments must ensure quality education to each and every child. Education is a liberating force which liberate the people from poverty, suppression, exploitation, etc.

2. Economic and social security: To overcome poverty, communities around the world must be provided economic and social securities they need to thrive. Government accross the globe must extend basic health care, education, housing, pension, disability insurance, survivor benefits and unemployment insurence to the families living under poverty.
Apart from these, people living in poverty must be ensured to have skills and knowledge they need to secure a livelihood, and support their families.

Question 7.
What is meant by traditional notion of external security? Describe any two components of this type of security.
Answer:
Traditional notion of external security means the greatest danger to a country is from military threats. The very origin of this kind of insecurity is other nation, which by threatening the military action perils the core values of sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity. Military action also endangers the lives of ordinary citizens.

The two components are :

1. Deterrence It is concerned with prevention of war. It is a strategy intended to dissuade an adversary from taking an action which is not yet started.
2. Balance of power Not every country is equal in terms of power. When other countries are looked around, it can be judged easily that who is threat for our nation in coming future. Some nations are bigger and stronger in comparison to others.

The governments have to be very careful regarding balance of power between nations, as at some point of time in future any government can opt to be aggressive.

Question 8.
Explain balance of power as a component of traditional security policy. How could a state achieve this balance?
Answer:
Balance of Power as a component of traditional security policy The balance of power is the third components of traditional security policy. It means that not every country is equal in terms of power. When other countries are looked around, it can be judged easily that who is threat for our nation in coming future. Some countries are bigger and stronger.

For instance, a neighbouring country may not be preparing to attack. Infact there is no strong reason for a war or attack to happen. But the fact that the country is strong and bigger is a kind of symbol that it will attack in future if circumstances arises. On the basis of a speculation, governments are very sensitive to the balance of power between their country and other countries.

It is important to maintain a favourable balance of power with the countries with whom they have differences and with those they have had issues in the past.

In the following way state/nation can achieve balance of power:

• Building up one’s military power is essential to have a balance of power.
• Developing economic and technological power are also important since they are the basis for military power.

Question 9.
Describe any three new sources of threat to security giving examples for each.
Answer:
Security mainly refers to freedom from threats. Existence of human being and life of a country is full of threats, concludingly, security is related to extremely dangerous threats which could endanger the core values and these values are not repairable.
Four new source of threat four new threats to security are :

1. Terrorism It means political violence targeting civilians intentionally and non-selectively. International terrorism involves the citizens or territory of more than one country. Terrorist groups try to change the political context which they do not like by force or threat of force. Civilians are targeted to terrorise the public.
2. Human Rights They have been categorised into three types:
   • Political rights: It include freedom of speech and assembly.
   • Economic and social rights: It deals with rights related to economic and social nature.
   • Rights of colonised people: It deals with rights of colonised people or ethnic and indigenous minorities counts.
3. Global Poverty Due to the high per capita income and low population, rich countries become richer and vice versa. Globally, this disparity contributes to the gap between the Northern and Southern countries of the world.
4. Migration International political frictions have been created due to large scale migration of people from South to North. In order to seek better life and economic opportunities people have migrated to North.

Question 10.
What is meant by non-traditional notion of security? Differentiate between the narrow and broad concept of human security.
Answer:
Meaning of non-traditional notions of security It includes a wide range of threats and dangers which affect the condition of human existence. The non-tredition notion of security go beyond military there at. In traditional security conception focus has been on state, its territory and governing institutions while in non-traditional conception, human kind has become concern along with state. Non-traditional views of security have been called as ‘human security’ or ‘global security’.

Difference between ‘narrow’ and broad concept of human security Supporters of the ‘narrow’ concepts of human security emphasis on violent threats to individuals or as Kofi Annan believes ‘protection of communities and individuals from internal violence’.

On the other hand, proponents of the ‘broad’ concept of human security emphasis on the threat agenda that should include hunger, disease and natural disaster that kill far more people than war, genocide and terrorism together. Thus, human security policy, they argue, should protect people from these threats as well as from violence.
