Introduction

Today you will learn to identify ways to conserve natural resources by reducing, reusing, and recycling. A natural resource is something from Earth that people use, like water, trees, minerals from the ground, and soil. To conserve means to use less of a resource so it does not run out. Earth does not make new trees or water fast enough for everyone if we waste them. So we need smart ways to use less.
