All discourses concerned with the term Eco criticism has ever been receptive of worldwide views, since it is inevitably allied with the sustenance of the mankind. The literary figures especially poets are the real pioneers of the campaign of Eco-protection everywhere. In Malayalam Language, it has been a process which extended nearly for half a century through a series of poets of different periods. Mr. Murukan Kattakada who represents the contemporary Malayalam poetry has been one among the strong Advocates of Nature conservation and opponent of its destruction. Poetry being a very apt medium for communicating delicate and emotional ideas, usually get attracted and attached by the public and since Mr. Murukan’s poems have an added musical touch, even the less literate society could cherished them and ever kept them close to their hearts. Besides he has been singing his own verses during public meetings with all sensibilities and gets much appreciated. Many of his poems are uploaded in You-Tube also. Mr. Murukan Kattakada through many of his poems has criticized the attitude of the mankind to exploit Nature without little consideration of their own sustenance. He advises, pleads and exhorts the mankind being disguised in different identities for the environmental protection. The Research Paper is intended to have an analytical study of some of his Eco-poems in this regard.
