This is an in-depth exploration of Nepal’s environmental journey, tracing its transformation from ancient practices to modern sustainability challenges. Drawing from over four decades of experience as an environmentalist and humanitarian, Dr. Medani Bhandari takes readers through the historical, social, and ecological shifts that have shaped Nepal’s environmental landscape. This comprehensive work examines the complex interplay between traditional knowledge, policy development, and global environmental trends, offering valuable insights into the country’s past, present, and future.
This is a critical resource for understanding the environmental challenges faced by Nepal, a country rich in natural resources but confronted with the pressing issues of deforestation, water scarcity, and climate change. By analyzing these challenges through the lens of history, politics, and social change, this book offers a holistic understanding of the forces at play and presents actionable solutions for moving forward.
This work bridges the gap between academic research and practical, on-the-ground experience. It incorporates diverse perspectives, combining ecological science with policy analysis, and highlights the interconnectedness of environmentalism with social justice, cultural identity, and global sustainability. The book provides policymakers, researchers, NGOs, and environmental advocates with a framework for fostering sustainable practices that are both contextually relevant and globally applicable.
Readers will see a detailed examination of Nepal’s environmental transformation, a roadmap for accelerating sustainable practices, and a call to action for local and global stakeholders.
