We can manage ........................

Natural resource management means management of natural resources such as land, water, soil, plants, animals etc.... . and how the management affect the life of present and future generations. The concern about the environment and natural resources management have arisen because of the depletion of finite natural resources. the resources like clean water, air, fuel, land, forests are becoming increasingly scarce. If these resources depletes too fast , with out the possibility of regeneration it will be a great problem for the future generation.
When industrial revolution started the world population was at 600 million but now in the present it is about 10 times at 7 billion and one has experienced the fastest development & modern lifestyle requirements by humans.so when we over exploit natural resources the damage cause to the environment is also high. So we have to mange the natural resources .
we can manage natural resources by "The Three R's" concept.
  1. Reduce
  2. Reuse
  3. Recycle
Reduce :- Reduce means the Waste minimization, the process and the policy of reducing the amount of waste produced by a person or a society or  less use of resources and not wasting the resources.

 Reuse :- Reuse is using the resources more than once and there are some advantages of reuse.
  • Reduced disposal needs and costs.
  • Energy and raw materials savings as replacing many single use products with one reusable one reduces the number that need to be manufactured.
  • Cost savings for business and consumers as a reusable product is often cheaper than the many single use products it replaces. 
 Recycle :- Recyclable materials include many kinds of glass, paper, metal, plastic, textiles, and electronics. Recycling means process of used materials (waste) into new products to prevent waste of useful materials, reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, reduce energy usage, reduce air pollution and water pollution.

And also we can do reforestation that means the restocking forests depleted by deforestation.This can be used to improve the quality of life because it help clear the atmosphere from toxic gases and also in balancing of carbon dioxide in atmosphere and rebuild natural habitats & Eco-system.

  1. We can help educate our families and communities about the importance of recycling for our environment, and how each of us can make a difference for a better world by recycling.
