Answer:

Conservation means usage, improvement, protection of human and natural resources in a wise manner. ... Our Natural Resources should be conserved because it is the main source of our daily needs and is limited only. If these resources are abused and harmed, we will have a short quantity of sources for food and living.

Explanation:

A resource is any natural or artificial substance or energy which can be used for the benefits of mankind. Natural resources are those which exist in the environment naturally, that is, they are not created by humans. They are soil, water, sunlight, the wind, plants, coal etc.

Natural resources are classified further into exhaustible and inexhaustible resources. Exhaustible resources are those which are limited and will be exhausted with continuous usage, for example, coal, natural gas etc. whereas inexhaustible resources are those which cannot be depleted by human consumption, for example, wind power and water power etc.,

As the population of the world is increasing at an alarming rate, the consumption of natural resources is also increasing. Hence, these resources should be conserved to maintain ecological balance and save them for future generations. The proper management of a resource to prevent its destruction or exploitation is called conservation.

Nature provides us with all the essentials for our daily needs. Due to overpopulation and human negligence we started to over-exploit our resources. If this continues, there will no resources left for our future generation. The need to conserve the resources are

1.To support life by supporting ecological balance

2.To ensure that the future generations will be able to access the resources

3.To preserve the biodiversity

4.To make sure human race survives.
