Conservation of Resources
Since resources are useful to us we should avoid wasting them before their supplies run out. The careful use of resources is called conservation of resources. All of us hold the responsibility to ensure that enough resources are left behind for future generations. Depletion of our life support resources such as water, air, soil and biodiversity, is a great problem that we are facing today. Carbon dioxide emissions and large scale deforestation have resulted in a global increase in temperature. This increase in temperature is leading to adverse effects on our natural resources.
