B.S Environmental and Natural Resources Conservation

Sustainable natural resources conservation is a process of rational use and skilful management and preservation of the natural environment with all its resources. Integrated environmental education can provide knowledge which is useful in sustainable management of natural resources. All human efforts towards development are based upon the presence of natural resources. Although the earth has continued to support life for thousands of years, today it is facing serious environmental challenges which are as a result of human impact and this is a threat to life support systems. This is a potential ecological disaster. Integrated environmental education can be used as tool to create the necessary awareness, that would indicate and strongly emphasise the sustainable use of the natural resource base so as to protect the natural capital for future generations. Lack of environmental education awareness, human greed and careless attitude are threatening the natural resources to their extinction.
