Question
Inference- Loss of biodiversity affects indigenous
people badly. I. Due to their subsistence economies and spiritual connection to lands and territories, most indigenous peoples suffer disproportionately from loss of biological diversity and environmental degradation. Their lives, survival, development chances, knowledge, environment and health conditions are threatened by environmental degradation, large scale industrial activities, toxic waste, conflicts and forced migration, as well as by land-use and land-cover changes. II. Many indigenous groups had their own concepts of respect for nature and stewardship long before the conservation movement began. They have been observing environmental changes for generations; and have recognized patterns. And this is exactly the kind of knowledge and expertise we need, to tackle climate change and mitigate its harmful impact. III. At least a quarter of the world’s land area is owned, managed, used or occupied by indigenous peoples and local communities. While nature in these areas is degrading less quickly than in others, the impact of climate and ecosystem change has a direct impact on local livelihoods. Directions : In each of the given questions an inference is given which is then followed by three paragraphs. You have to find the paragraph(s) from where it is inferred. Choose the option with the best possible outcome as your choice.Solution
