Conservation
Conservation is the use of natural resource in a managed way or environmental friendly way. Preservation is leaving natural resource as they are and not harvesting them for human benefit at all. I think that humans should be able to harvest but they should do so in the proper way and not over doing it. I think that humans have gotten so wrapped up with luxuries of life that they forget about the environment around us that we have to live in. We need natural resources to be replenished as they are taken away. Like in the video they were talking about using the land for energy supply I don’t believe that they should invade what small areas of natural forest to get energy there are plenty areas elsewhere for the to find oil and other resources. I am leaning more toward the preservation side due to the fact that we don’t have very many forests left because humans are taking them down faster than they can replenish them. I also believe that conservation can happen it just need to be done in the right areas and we need to make sure that we don’t over use the resources and only take what we need.Like in the video they were talking about using the land for energy supply I don’t believe that they should invade what small areas of natural forest to get energy there are plenty areas elsewhere for the to find oil and other resources.
