3. Why To Conserve Environment
Human Beings are consuming resources with out giving time for nature to replenish them.

4. Energy Use, Global Warming and Climate Change
Fossil fuel burning , contribute towards CO2 production
In the last hundred years the Earth has warmed by about 0.5OC
increased concentrations of greenhouse gases

11. HOW TO COPE WITH THE SITUATION
The natural environment shall be conserved in accordance with the following basic principles:
1. The natural environment shall be conserved as a resource for all people in a way suitable for the public good, and shall be used so as to be sustained for the present and future generation;
2. Conservation of the natural environment shall be harmonious and balanced with the use of national land;
3. Natural ecology and natural scenery shall be conserved and managed so as to promote human activity, functionality of nature and ecological circulation;
nadia

12. 4. Opportunities for all people to participate in the conservation of the natural environment and the sound use of the natural environment shall be increased;
5. Ecological equilibrium shall neither be destroyed nor depreciated when utilizing or developing the natural environment: Provided, That, where natural ecology or natural scenery is destroyed, damaged or encroached, an effort shall be made to restore and return to former condition to the utmost;
6. Burdens arising from conservation of the natural environment shall be borne fairly, and benefits obtained from the natural environment shall be preferentially enjoyed by residents of the region and by interested persons;
7. International cooperation for conservation of the natural environment and sustainable use of the natural environment shall be promoted.
