Question

How is resource conservation different from resource planning

Answer 1

Resource conservation means to save resources but resource planning means how the resources should be used.

Answer 2

Resource planning refers to the systematic utlisation of resources which is essential for sustainable use of resources. The three stages involved in resource planning are:
1. Identification of resources.
2. Making a structure keeping in mind the skill, technology and institutional set up to develop the resources. 
3. Matching resource development plan with national development plan.

Resource conservation on the other hand refers to the preservation of resources by reducing excess utilisation and consumption.
