Theme

We humans inhabit the earth, along with millions of other species. We have an economic system which helps in the survival of the human species, but at what cost? We end up treating the other species like slaves and we even kill them only for your economic benefits. Indeed, it helps us but at the same time it is the worst thing possible for the Earth and the Environment at large. And when mother Earth loses, it is the loss of the whole humanity. The theme "Wildlife Trade: A Massive Catastrophe" mainly focuses on the adversities that are being faced by the animals due to short term luxury of a person. We need to stop the killings and poaching of animals for the greater good.

Expectations

The theme aims to provide an opportunity for all the legal and social science fraternity to share their experiences and opinion on the Forest issues around the globe. We encourage the Author(s) to not only restrict them to Indian concepts and go beyond the borders and bring forward new concepts and ideas to this discussion. The expectation of this theme is to bring a better dialogue on the very relevant issue of green wipe-out.
