We mine millions of tons of coal every year, we use millions of barrels of oil, we cut down thousands of acres of forests. But the earth produces only a limited amount of these natural resources. Coal and oil were formed thousands of years ago, and the supply is gradually running out. That is why we must use our natural resources as carefully and wisely as we can. We must make them last as long as possible. Conservation is the wise use of our natural resources. 1.
