dc.description.abstractThe Indian culture has always been attached to the natural environment. From the ancient times, people were brought up to respect and preserve the trees and plants that provide pure oxygen for human and animals. According to legends and as a part of religious practice people worship the trees and take good care of them as that will benefit the future generations. Some practices have become a part of the day to day life such as maintaining a Basil plant (Tulsi) at home to prevent mosquitoes and throwing Copper coins in the river as Copper is said to preserve the purity of the water and also plant herbs in their own gardens for quick remedies for sicknesses or diseases. These practices are even handed over to the next generation naturally. The Indian culture has always given nature a prominent place as a gratitude for the service it offers free of charge for the existence of all living beings.en_US
