Women have been the source of indigenous wisdom to preserve and safeguard natural resources for centuries around the world, yet society has continued to overlook this beneficial role of women in environmental conservation. The environment is the natural and surrounding environment in which all plants, animals, humans, and other living and nonliving things exist. Women, on the other hand, make up the better half of society. Women are playing an important role in environmental protection and preservation. Ester Boserup's 1970 publication of "Women's Role in Economic Development" emphasised the significance of women in environmental protection and preservation. Now that women recognise the consequences of environmental deterioration on society, they are trying to conserve the environment for future generations. According to a World Bank research from 1991, women have an important role in the management of natural resources such as soil, water, forest, and energy, and they also have past and present knowledge of the natural world or environment around them. It also tries to document and examine the contributions of women, the Indian government, non-governmental organisations, and other actors to environmental protection, as well as other topics relating to women and the environment. The role of women in environmental protection will be discussed in this study.
