Increasing knowledge
Over the course of his unconventional life – from being an American boy raised in India’s wild places to achieving scientific renown – Romulus Whitaker has gone from conserving reptiles to saving rainforests.
"We are now faced with a water shortage that will dwarf any of the past problems faced by the people.”
His planned network of research stations will build on the surprisingly limited knowledge of India’s rainforests and demonstrate the importance of their water supplies to hundreds of millions of people.
