Conservation • How can we preserve the earth and natural resources? • Reduce, reuse, recycle • Resource renewal • Species Monitoring • Habitat Monitoring
Resource Renewal • When species of plants and animals are protected • You can help renew the resource. • For example if a plant is endangered, you grow the seeds in an indoor, protected environment and then return them outside.
Species Monitoring • When you monitor or watch over a group of animals (a species) • Scientists may count or track the species to see if the population is growing. • How can this practice help hedgehogs? • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0seTADKBwQ
