Conservation of nature is basically, the conservation of resources such as air, water, sunlight, land, vegetations, animal life and minerals. All these resources are obtained from nature without any interference from the mankind. These resources are further employed to produce various things that make the lives of human being as well as other living being comfortable.

 

Natural resources are broadly categorized into renewable resources and non-renewable resources. Renewable resources are the ones that replenish naturally. These include air, water and sunlight. The use of these resources is encouraged over the non-renewable resources as the latter do not replenish and are fast depleting.

 

Some of the ways in which the common man can help in the conservation of nature is by planting trees, restricting the use of paper, stopping wastage of water and electricity, stopping ill practices such as hunting of animals and employing rain water harvesting systems. It does not take much to put the above mentioned ideas to practice. However, if each one of us contribute our bit to it, the difference it will bring about would be tremendous.

Support the government initiatives and participate in creating awareness about the importance of creating a protective environment for our environment.
