Environmental Stewardship

Environmental stewardship is the responsible use and protection of our natural resources, with the goal of preserving and enhancing them for future generations. It is about recognizing the interconnectedness of all living things and the need to maintain a healthy balance between human activity and the environment. Environmental stewardship involves making conscious choices to reduce our impact on the environment.  It includes conserving water, reducing waste, using renewable energy sources, and protecting biodiversity.

Conserving water and other natural resources

Conserving water is a key part of environmental stewardship, as it helps to reduce stress on local water resources and protect aquatic ecosystems. This can be achieved through simple actions like fixing leaky faucets, taking shorter showers, and using water-efficient appliances. Conserving other natural resources, such as energy and raw materials, is also important for reducing our carbon footprint and minimizing waste.

Reducing waste and increasing recycling efforts

Reducing waste and increasing recycling efforts are essential components of environmental stewardship. By reducing the amount of waste we produce and recycling as much as possible. We can conserve resources, reduce landfill space, and minimize pollution. This can be achieved through actions like composting, buying products with minimal packaging, and choosing reusable items over disposable ones.
