Why the Conservation of Energy and Natural Resources Is So Important


Enjoyment of life and natural energy are intertwined as to the continuance of existence and enjoyment of life here on earth. For without natural energy, life would not be enjoyed to the fullest. Natural energy is important not only to the living things but also to the earth as a whole. They come from natural resources such as water, sun, air, and minerals. Conservation of natural energy is essential because it allows us to save things that can be used anytime when we need them in order for us to stay alive. We cannot surely survive without air to breathe, water to drink and food to eat. Natural energy itself produces a vast advantage on the part of the people.
There are two classes of natural energy, the renewable energy and non renewable energy. The energy which is produced from natural resources which can be constantly generated and can be use whenever we need them is called renewable energy. The most common example for this is the solar energy and wind energy. The sun is one of the sources of solar energy that generates the richest of energy obtainable on earth. The energy from the sun is useful as it can be transformed to electricity. The wind energy is also one of the outstanding resources use to produce electric energy. The windmill or the wind turbine is a machine that transforms wind into electric energy and it harnesses the natural resources which is the current of air. While the energy which is taken from the sources that are available in short supply of quantity and can be used only for a short period of time is called non-renewable sources. They cannot be regenerated and will usually be consumed. Non-renewable sources include oil, coal, fossil fuels and natural gas. They are not environment friendly and one of the causes of global warning.
There are lots of reasons that all of us most consider why the conservation of natural energy and natural resources is important:
  1. It has a big effect on the atmosphere for it save the environment from damaging thus preserving the natural resources as well as human life.

  2. For the family who is in a tight budget, it is beneficial to them for they can save a lot of money out from the electric bill usage down to the fuel consumption.

  3. Natural energy helps in eliminating the consumption of fossil fuel therefore preventing air pollution.

  4. Reducing the effect of global warming and climate change which is usually caused by greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide.

  5. Conserving undeveloped lands help in protecting wildlife which is already endangered nowadays.

  6. Natural energy is cost effective as it requires low maintenance.

  7. It is not only important for our present existence but also for the next generation.
We should be thankful about the benefits of the natural energy to our life. We can help in conserving our natural resources by planting trees and recycling waste material which can substantially reduce the need for energy. Those are the simple things that we can do for the conservation of the environment. Natural energy must not be wasted and should be taken care of because they are indeed part of our daily lives. Love and respect are what they need as they are giving us the main things that we want in life. Mother Nature must be given all the appreciation not to be abused such that, it will give us the things we need in our way of life not only in this present time but also to those generation to come.
Much as what we want to do the things here on earth for the satisfaction of life, nevertheless, we will not disregard the paramount importance which is the respect accorded to the mother earth for purposes of making it the best place to live with, for it is the source of all natural energy that can be used of by the people. Development of science in discovering the natural energy should not run a foul as to the basic tenet of preserving the mother earth. While it is true that it can help augment the needs of the people for the enjoyment of life, it is notwithstanding the fact that giving value in the preservation of all natural resources that earth provides must be given all weight than enjoyment of life itself. By its very own purpose, energy derived from the universe must be by nature has a multitude positive effect of the people's survival.
For all intents and purposes, in order to enjoy life to its fullest sense natural energy must be preserved and conserved for its continuance supply however limited, but scientific discoveries must be in concurrence to the preservation of the mother earth. By considering the advancement of technology, it is not impossible that we will be using natural energy as one of the most powerful sources of energy here on earth
