How to Preserve, and Protect Our Natural Resources in this Time of Pandemic

What are Natural Resources?

Natural resources are resources that exist without any actions of humankind. This includes the sources of valued characteristics such as commercial and industrial use, aesthetic value, scientific interest and cultural value.

Ways on How to Preserve, and Protect Our Natural Resources :

1. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

Recycling can conserve natural resources. Recycling is an important factor in conserving natural resources and greatly contributes towards improving the environment. Recycling conserves natural resources, such as wood, water, minerals, and fossil fuels, because materials can be reused.

2. Save Energy

Energy needs to be conserved not onlyto cut costs but also to preserve the resources for longer use. As of today, most of the energy is generated from coal powered power plants. These plants do generate energy but also pollute the environment by emitting harmful gases in the atmosphere.

3. Eliminate Waste Lunches

ELIMINATE! Tired of seeing some piece of plastic and paper around the campus? What a waste?! Why not pack some veggies and fruits in a lunch box instead of buying in convenience stores? Isn’t it healthier that way? Buying bottled water and cold drinks? Why not try bringing your own mug or tumbler? That way, we can save money; we can be healthier, and; we can help the environment.
