Do you think Green Revolution is successful for controllinenvironment pollution?

Yes, to a great extent. But increasing number of factories and vehicles are creating so much of pollution that everyone needs to participate on warfooting basis.City like Delhi has expanded its green area manifold which has resulted in better pollution control.

To a certain extent yes it has been successful in controlling the environmental issues or else the position might have been more worse than what we see today!!!

Not at all . only green plants can't remove complete pollution. to avoid pollution one must decrease the emission of toxic gases which spoils the environment and which are also harmful plants.

Yes, green revolution can be successful to some extent, but need to cut down on other pollution factors too

Yes,surely but due to increase of population,industries,factories and buildings, the trees are decreasing day by day.

I think, regardless of the success rate it presently has, we still have to work hard to make it more successful, because the way things stand, we can't afford for it not to work!

Another fact about Green revolution, apart from controlling pollution, is that it has helped India to upgrade from a food deficient country to one of the world's leading agricultural nation....

How Could Green Revolution contribute to control of pollution? In fact it has contributed more to it!!

Whatever green revolution achieves by forestation and planting more trees is offset by acquiring land for various purposes and cutting trees. Now we have jungles of concrete. even water shortage is surfacing as a result. We need to reverse the trend of mindless development and industrialization and enlarge the area of forests. This may control pollution.

Yes green revolution makes the successful for controlling the pollution and saves us from the disasters

So programs like green revolution, afforestation and factors like curbing emissions of fuels and smoke helps in reducing pollution.

I think the term 'Green Revolution' was coined in the late sixties to meet the acute food shortages and this movement was launched to exponentially increase yield of land and the results were quite revolututionary but it came at a cost.Drawal of water from water table was huge and indiscriminate use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides actually contributed to degradation of environment!!!What do you say on that?

I also have the same doubt.

The resources of this planet are limited and over-exploitation by one generation act to the detriment of ones to come!!

Ceeem...I think necessary resources are there , but not to satisfy the greedy one.

Yes,upto certain extent.But then also a number of trees are bing cut for various purposes.

You are right,Abid! But who is there to differentiate between 'need' and 'greed'!

That is the problem we are facing now.

green revolution is helpful in removing pollution as green trees freshes air and bringing rain. ya it play role in removing pollution.
