“Conservation protects resources for future use by banning reckless exploitation. It promotes an end to wasteful use of non-renewable resources, more efficient extraction methods, and recycling. Conservation is both rational, since it extends resources for the use of future generations, and morally sound. It is argued that the human race has no right to bring about the extinction of species and environments which have value on aesthetic, scientific, and recreational grounds.” -- Geographical Dictionary
