Conservation (ethic)

Conservation ethic (sometimes called "conservation values") is a set of beliefs and attitudes that encourages people to care for the environment and to protect and conserve natural resources. This means recognizing that we should preserve nature and look after our environment instead of hurting or destroying it. Conservation ethic involves things like using renewable resources like wind and solar energy instead of polluting fuels like coal, reducing the amount of waste we create, and protecting endangered animals. It also means recognizing that humans are part of nature and that we should work together to ensure that all living things can share our planet.
