Question

The poor people, who are evacuated from their village due to dams, lose access to the local environment.

What other loss do the villagers face?

• A. Loss of agricultural crops
• B. Loss of traditional knowledge of biodiversity
• C. Loss of water availability
• D. Loss of modern knowledge of biodiversity

Answer 1

The correct option is B Loss of traditional knowledge of biodiversity

Villagers are closely connected to nature and have immense traditional knowledge of the biodiversity of their locality. However, when villagers are made to move out of their native places, they cannot continue practicing their traditional knowledge.
