Conservation is the protection and wise management of the environment. People practise conservation so that the environment can preserve their needs and the needs of all other living things. Without conservation, all the resources necessary for life - air, animals, energy, minerals, plants, soil, and water - would be damaged, wasted, or destroyed.
Conservation also includes a concern for the quality of the environment, so that people can enjoy living in it. It means keeping it healthy and safe - and an interesting place to live in. A healthy environment includes clean streets and highways, with open spaces in cities for parks and playgrounds. Ideal surroundings mean landscapes free of junk and litter. They include regions of wilderness where animals and plants can he protected from the destructive influence of human beings.
Dịch bài:
Bảo tồn thiên nhiên là việc bảo vệ và quản lý môi trường một cách khôn ngoan. Con người thực hiện bảo tồn thiên nhiên để môi trường có thể duy trì nhu cầu của họ cũng như của tất cả các sinh vật khác. Nếu con người không thực hiện bảo tồn thiên nhiên, mọi nguồn tài nguyên cần thiết cho sự sống như không khí, động vật, năng lượng, khoáng sản, thực vật, đất và nước đều sẽ bị tổn hại, lãng phí hoặc hủy diệt.
Bảo tồn thiên nhiên còn là việc quan tâm đến chất lượng môi trường, để con người có thể hưởng thụ cuộc sống. Điều này có nghĩa là chúng ta giữ cho môi trường lành mạnh và an toàn và là một nơi đáng để sống. Một môi trường lành mạnh bao gồm đường phố sạch sẽ với không gian thoáng đãng trong công viên hay sân chơi ở thành phố. Môi trường lý tưởng là cảnh quan không có rác thải. Môi trường cũng bao gồm cả những khu bảo tồn hoang dã nơi động thực vật được bảo vệ khỏi sự tàn phá của con người.
