Natural resources are of different types however these have largely been classified as renewable and non-renewable. Some of the examples of renewable natural resources are sunlight, water, wind, wood and soil. While few of these natural resources are available in abundance in nature and can be replenished fast others take time to renew.
Coal, oil and natural gases are some of the examples of non-renewable natural resources. Though available naturally in the environment, these natural resources cannot be replenished or take hundreds of years to recycle.
The presence of natural resources is essential for maintaining the environmental balance. However, we do not think twice before utilizing them. We are exploiting our natural resources and they are getting depleted at a rapid speed. We must understand the importance of natural resources and the need to conserve them for future use. We must particularly be cautious while using the non-renewable resources as well as the renewable resources that take time to replenish. These resources are our basic requirements. They are essential for our survival. If we do not take serious measures to conserve them, then it will become almost impossible for us to live on Earth.
The government of every country needs to emphasize the importance of conservation of natural resources and ensure its citizens avoid wastage of any kind.
