Describe the need for the conservation of natural resources?

It is true to say that nature provides us various resources in order to fulfill the basic needs but the irony is that we are overexploiting available resources and if we continue to follow this pattern there will be no resources available for the future generations. So there is a need to frame and implement a policy through which we can conserve the natural resources. Some of the important needs are as follows:

a. To maintain the ecological balance and this in turn supports different forms of life.


b. Helpful in the preservation of different endangered species.


c. To ensure the availability of resources for the present and future generations.


d. To guarantee the existence of human beings.
