Man has exploited the natural resources in such a way that it led to over-exploitation and losing the balance in natural eco-system. Increased extraction of natural resources, accumulation of wastes and concentration of pollutants will overwhelm the carrying capacity of the biosphere and result in the degradation of environmental quality and a decline in human welfare, despite rising incomes. To save the environment and even economic activity from itself, eco-growth must make a transition to a steady-state economy. Kerala has a variety of mineral resources and quarrying dates back well into the pre-colonial times. In this respect, the SNA fails to measure or clearly segregate the economic cost of resource depletion and the cost of environmental and health degradation due to anthropogenic activities. This project attempts to show the degradation of the environment and health of the neighborhoods due to quarrying and allied activities.
