 Critical thinking

A) Do you think that the title “Foresters without Diplomas” is suitable to the essay? How?

Yes, the title is suitable because the foresters proved to be very complicated for them because they have diplomas. But the women learned to plant the trees without any help. They used their common sense and day to day technique. They became successful without any help from others. So, the title justifies that a person can make a difference in a society as well as in the world without diplomas. It means that practical knowledge is far better than theoretical knowledge.

The foresters came to show the women how to plant trees.  They have complicated ways of dealing with a very simple thing like looking for seeds and planting trees. So eventually they taught the women to just do it using common sense and they did. They were able to look for seeds in the neighborhood, and learn to recognize seedlings as they germinate when seeds fall on the ground. Women do not have to wait for anybody to grow trees. They are really foresters without a diploma.

B) Can a person make a difference in a society? Discuss with an example from a person who has made a difference in your society.

Ans: Yes, a person can make a difference in a society. If a person starts a certain goal with passion then he/’she can change the whole world. A person should start from himself/herself to bring change in the world. In my village there is a person whose name is Birendra Sharma. He doesn’t have formal education. He started vegetable farming in his farm without having prior knowledge of vegetable farming. He wanted to bring change in his society by doing organic vegetable farming. He wanted to make people aware about the effects of pesticides on vegetables. At the beginning, he planted vegetables to feed his family.

Later on, he started selling it from his own farm. People started to visit farming. People were eager to learn the technique. They not only sold his organic vegetables but also taught his unique methods to his villagers. He became famous in his village. Media also became interested in his farming. He told everything about his farming to media. He talked about the dangerous methods that farmers are using to cultivate crops which can affect our health. He also discussed about what is organic farming and its importance.  He became a national hero with his unique technique of using day to day things for organic farming.

Ans: Community forests of Nepal are helping to preserve ecology in our environment. It is also fruitful to decrease deforestation as well as land degradation in Nepal. It is a key tool to preserve biodiversity. Nepal has passed three decades of community based forest management practices. It is a model of community governance.

The local communities are involving in forest management. The main goal of it is to ensure forest products to locals as well to stop locals to misuse it.  It will eventually help to maintain ecology in future.

Wild animals are increasing day by day because of the concept of community forests in Nepal. It will preserve natural resources and forest ecosystem.
