| Environmental campaigners in Iran are pessimistic about the authori ties' commitment to protecting natural habitats. But some hope is offered by grassroots initiatives where local communities have taken it upon themselves to look after wildlife. The religious and political leaders who have governed Iran since the 1979 revolution have always stressed the importance of conservation. But environmentalists say that in reality, the unchecked squandering of natural resources adds up to a disaster. |
