Directions- (Q. 71-75) Read the passage below and answer the question that follow based on your understanding of the passage.
Poverty and a degraded environment are closely interrelated, especially where people depend for their livelihoods primarily on the natural resources base of the immediate environment. Restoring natural systems and improving natural resource management practices at the grassroots level are central to a strategy to eliminate poverty. The survival needs to the poor force them to continue to degrade an already degraded environment. Therefore, removal of poverty is a prerequisite for the protection of the environment.
Poverty magnifies the problem of hunger and malnutrition. The problem is further compounded by the inequitable access of the poor to the food that is available. It is therefore necessary to strengthen public distribution system to overcome the inequity. Diversion of common and marginal lands to ‘economically useful purposes’ deprives the poor of a resources base which has traditionally met many of their sustenance needs. Market forces leads to the elimination of crops that have traditionally been integral to the diet of the poor, thereby threatening food security and nutritional status.
While the conventional economic development leads to the elimination of several traditional occupations, the process of sustainable development, guided by the need to protect and conserve the environment, leads to the creation of new jobs and of opportunities for the reorientation of traditional skills to new occupations.
Women while continuing to perform their traditional domestic roles are increasingly involved in earning livelihoods. In many poor households they are often the principal or the sole bread winners. Major thrust at the policy level is necessary to ensure equity and justice for them. Literacy and basic educations are essential for enabling the poor to access the benefits offered by development initiatives and market opportunities. Basic education is therefore a precondition for sustainable development. A sizable proportion( about 60 percent according to some estimates) of the population is not integrated into the market economy. Ensuring the security of their livelihoods is an imperative for sustainable development.
