Explanation:

  • With the world's population growing at an alarming rate, natural resource consumption is also growing. Those resources should therefore be conserved in order to preserve and save ecological balance for future generations. Conservation is considered careful control of a property in order to avoid its degradation or misuse.
  • Nature gives us everything we need on a regular basis. We continue to overuse our resources because of population explosion and human negligence. When this carries on, our future generation will have no resources left.
  • Minerals will take a long time to form, and will soon be consumed at the current pace of consumption. These are also infinite and non-renewable. Mineral explorations have also resulted in the displacement of marginalised groups such as local tribe, with very few instances of sufficient compensation
  • To conserve mineral, oil and other mined resources enhanced technologies  have to be constantly evolved so that low-grade ores can be used at low cost, re-cycling of the minerals, strict regulators to ensure the responsible mining of resources, & use of alternatives via research such as scrap metals and other substitute materials.
