2. Definition:
Conservation is defined as judicious use to avoid wastage
of materials and degradation of environment.
Conservation of environment involves the conservation of
the natural resources. The non-renewable resources have
to be conserved as they cannot be replenished. The
reserves of the resources such as fossil fuels are limited
and man is heavily dependent on these resources for his
day to day needs. The renewable resources too have to
be judiciously used. Though they are replenished, they
are subjected to a lot of pollution that renders them
useless.
4. Biodegradable and non-biodegradable waste
material have to be disposed after
separating them.
Compost heap or a compost bin can be used
to recycle waste food and other
biodegradable materials.
Avoid unnecessary packaging of products.
Plant more trees. They help in absorbing
excess carbon dioxide.
Observe World Environment Day (5th June).
Never dispose left over chemicals, oils, or
other harmful substances down the drain,
or dump them under the ground, or in
water bodies or burn them in the garden.
This causes pollution.
5. Don not burn any waste, especially plastics.
The smoke may contain polluting gases.
Use unleaded petrol and alternate sources of
energy and keep the engine properly tuned and
serviced and the tyres inflated to the right
pressure, so that vehicle runs efficiently.
Avoid fast starts and sudden braking of
automobiles.
Walk or cycle wherever possible. Walking and
cycling can help to keep you fit.
Use public transport wherever you can, or form
a car pool for everyday travel.
Send your waste oil, old batteries and used
tyres to a garage for recycling or safe disposal;
all these can cause serious pollution.

12. Action Guidelines for Environmental
Conservation
1. As a students, we will educate our surrounding people
to take action in order to obey environment-related
laws, raise their global environmental awareness, look
upon society from a wide point of view, and from a
broad vantage point encourage their interest in
environmental conservation.
2. We will evaluate potential environmental problems
and prevent them from occurring. In the event that
any environmental problem occurs, we will take
appropriate measures to minimize the environmental
burden.
3. We will make efforts to disclose information on our
environmental conservation activities to our relevant
stakeholders. We will also actively communicate with
these stakeholders so as to strengthen mutual
understanding and forge cooperative relationships
with them.
