Why should the possibility of local resistance in deforestation be understood?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because local people wanted to protect their livelihood and rights

The direct answer is A: local people wanted to protect their livelihood and rights. Livelihood means the way people obtain food, fuel, fodder, work and income. Forest communities depended on forests for many daily needs, so colonial cutting and new forest rules could reduce access to grazing, firewood, fruits, hunting and cultivation. Therefore, resistance was understandable: people resisted policies that threatened their lives, customary use and rights. Option A is correct because it connects deforestation with the real interests of forest-dependent communities. Option B is wrong because local people were not completely separate from forests; they depended on them closely. Option C is wrong because deforestation changed local life and often caused hardship. Option D is wrong because resistance also occurred in forest villages and rural areas, not only in cities. Exam cue: when a policy takes away a community’s livelihood or customary rights, expect resistance.
