Dear student,
Please find below the solution to the asked query.
what are the negative factors causing depletion of flora and fauna/?
There are many negative factors which are responsible for the loss of flora and fauna.
1. Increase in pollution:
Economic development of our country has increased the pollution level too. Effluents from Industries are discharged into the river water, sea or lakes which affect the aquatic life and use of pesticides and insecticides in agriculture affects the whole ecosystem.
2. Deforestation:
Forests are home of innumerable species. Encroachment of the humans in their habitat for their selfish motives has lead to the extinction of various plants and animals.
3.Increase in population:
Population of India is increasing at faster rate. This has increased pressure on resources of our nation. To meet the demand of increasing population, exploitation of resources are taking place. Encroachment on forest land are causing forest fragmentation and hence affecting flora and fauna.
4. Degradation of land:
Intensive agriculture, salnization and deforestation etc. degrades the land. Hence, it directly and indirectly affects flora and fauna of that region.
5.Increased use of greenhouse gases:
Increase in CO2 emission has led to increase in temperature which in turn has affected the biodiversity of our system by increasing severe weather events like drought and flood etc.
how were the colonial policies responsible for depletion of flora and fauna?
The colonial practices can be blamed to some extent for the depletion of flora and fauna.-
1, Large infrastructural projects like dams , buildings led to clearing to large patches of forests.
2. Enrichment plantation practised by the colonial rulers also led to depletion of flora and fauna,
3. Hunting and poaching activities of the british also led to depletion of India's biodiversity.
