BIOMES - ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES –TAIGA
SYNOPSIS
Biomes have been present long before humans inhabited planet earth. Ever since man became aware of and understood the surroundings, he went into a deep study of the same. The biologists divided the living world into major zones and called it ‘BIOMES’. Each biome is a world in itself having its own distinctive climate, plants and animals along with human beings who have become an integral part of every biome. The entire series of biomes has been covered under twelve topics and each topic is in turn divided into two parts to provide in depth knowledge of each biome.
This program on biomes covers The Taiga.
The Taiga biome is the second largest in size compared to the deserts and occupies about one tenth of the earth’s land surface. Humans have been living in taiga region for more than 100,000 years and have adapted to the bitter cold and chilly climate of this region along with the animals that too have made taiga their home. The taiga has been saved from the devastation of the modern world just because of the extreme climate and dense forests that forms a part of the biome.
