About this book
माणसाने मौज वा साहस यांच्यासाठी केलेली शिकारच नाही, तर विजवाहिन्या, धरणे, खाणी, युद्धे, विमान वाहतूक आणि उपभोगाचा हव्यास, वन्य पशु-पक्षी-कीटक-वनस्पती यांच्यासह हवा-माती-पाणी अशा प्रत्येक निसर्गघटकासाठी धोकादायकच आहे. पर्वतरांगा नद्या-समुद्र-वाळवंट जंगले सगळ्यांच्याच विध्वंसात दिवसेंदिवस पडणारी भर या 'विनाशक विकासा'चा नव्याने विचार करायला भाग पाडतात. मानवी हस्तक्षेपामुळे निर्माण झालेल्या आव्हानांवर मात करण्यासाठी बीएनएचएससारख्या संस्था, निसर्गशास्त्रज्ञ कसे प्रयत्न करत असतात, हे समजून घेणे कुतूहलपूर्ण आणि मनोरंजक आहे.
बीएनएचएसचे संचालक असणारे लेखक किशोर रिठे यांच्या ज्ञानाचा आवाका आणि ते सोप्या भाषेत समजावून सांगण्याचे कौशल्य वादातीत आहे. निसर्गसंवर्धनासाठी गेली तीन दशके काम करणारे आणि 'वने, वन्य प्राणी व पर्यावरण विषयक राष्ट्रीय धोरण समिती'चे सदस्य असणारे किशोर आपल्याला संरक्षण-संवर्धनाच्या नव्या दिशाही दाखवतात. म्हणूनच हे पुस्तक आपल्याला उद्याविषयी आशा देते !
मनुष्य निसर्गाचा एक घटक आहे; मालक नाही. सर्व निसर्गघटकांचा आदर राखत, सोबत जगलो तरच आपले अस्तित्वही टिकणार आहे; हे 'शहाणपण देणारे 'जन जंगल'!
Not only hunting for pleasure or adventure, but also power transmission lines, dams, mining, wars, air transportation, and humanity’s ever-growing appetite for consumption pose serious threats to wildlife, birds, insects, plants, and every element of nature—including air, soil, and water. The increasing destruction of mountain ranges, rivers, oceans, deserts, and forests compels us to rethink this model of “destructive development.” Understanding how organizations like BNHS and naturalists work to address the challenges created by human interference is both fascinating and enlightening.
The author, Kishor Rithe, Director of BNHS, possesses vast knowledge and an exceptional ability to explain complex subjects in simple language. Having worked in the field of nature conservation for the past three decades and serving as a member of the National Policy Committee on Forests, Wildlife, and Environment, he offers fresh perspectives on conservation and protection. This is why the book inspires hope for a better future.
Human beings are merely one component of nature—not its masters. Our own existence can endure only if we learn to live in harmony with nature while respecting all its elements. Jan Jangal is a book that imparts this wisdom.
