    Executive Summary- For a Living Planet

    Can we ever imagine a world where tigers are no longer roaming on the Indian Sub-

    continent, or where coral reef are only found as decoration in museums or where marine

    turtles, whales and dolphins are only found in captivity?

    Such a world is more likely than we might imagine.

    WWF-India is one of the largest conservation organisations engaged in wildlife and nature

    conservation in the country.

    Established as a Charitable Trust on November 27, 1969, it has an experience of over four

    decades in the field. From a modest beginning, the organisation was propelled forward by the

    efforts of its founders and associates who volunteered their time and energy to lend

    momentum to this movement.WWE India is one such organisation which aims at the

    promotion of nature conservation and environmental protection as the foundation for

    sustainable and equitable development, through awareness programmes and events.

    scenario modeling to profile the vulnerability of people and resources in the Coral Triangle to

    climate change based on the value of coastal resources to these communities, calling for

    CONCLUSION

    I found immense pleasure for the first time in writing this report and I am grateful to my

    Mentor MsJaisreeAnand for giving me such opportunity.My reason for choosing this topic as

    my assignment report is due to the cause of my profound interest and concern in the

    protection and sustenance of nature and natural tourism product which today is facing the

    dearth of extinction and is endangered to the over exploitation of resources due to the

    uncontrolled human activity to fulfill his unending needs and selfish wants, which is also

    directly correlated to our Tourism and hospitality industry. It is almost impossible to imagine

    a world without these natural beauties which are facing a global threat and is important for

    human beings sustenance too. Inhuman practices are injustice to nature and nature has its

    own way of balancing the environment which ultimately the human kind will have to pay in

    the long run. Its yet not too late, but it has to be now or never. I hope this report might help

    in getting its voice and help as an eye-opener, which is personally my concern and not just a

    cut-copy-paste work. Finally, I would like to end by saying that with Great Power comes

    Great Responsibilities, and I am contributing a bit through this report as I feel that we are

    responsible human beings.

    HUMANKIND- Be both!

    Thank You
