India, rather than repeating the Western pattern of using up all of a country's natural resources to fuel development before trying to mitigate the damage it's done to the environment, can find the answers to sustainable development by returning to its cultural and traditional practices.

This research will look at the effectiveness of numerous Indian environmental practises from the past and compare them to those in modern times
