Social responsibility means that, in addition to maximizing shareholder value, companies need to act in ways that benefit society. Socially responsible businesses need to pursue policies that promote social and environmental well-being while reducing their negative impact on society and the environment. The air, water, soil, minerals, energy, plants, and animals are among the natural resources of the planet. The practice of conservation involves taking care of these resources so that all living beings can use them in the now and in the future. Natural resources provide us with everything we require for survival, including food, drink, air, and shelter. Small plants are one example of a resource that may be easily replenished after usage. Others are difficult to replace, such as big trees. These resources can be replenished. There is no way to replace some resources, like fossil fuels. Once they are consumed, they are permanently lost. These are non-renewable resources.
People often waste natural resources. Animals are cornered. Forests have been cleared and the land has been exposed to wind and floods. Fertile soil is depleted and lost due to erosion by inadequate agricultural practices. The fuel supply has run out. Water and air are polluted. Careless management of resources can lead to exhaustion of many resources. However, when used wisely and efficiently, renewable resources will last much longer. Conservation allows people to reduce waste and use natural resources wisely.
Over the past two centuries, there has been a tremendous increase in the human population. As billions of people consume food, construct homes, manufacture things, and use fuel for transportation and electricity, resources are depleted swiftly. The wise utilization of natural resources is essential to the continuance of life as we know it. Resources must be conserved, yet other requirements frequently clash with this. A farm may be a wonderful fit for certain folks in a forested environment. The area’s trees may be harvested by a timber firm for use as building materials. On the property, a company could wish to build a factory or shopping Centre.
We need to make commitment to:
- Preserving the environment, using natural resources wisely, and taking precautions to stop contamination from the many industrial processes we utilise.
- Encourage a resource- and raw-material-use strategy that is sustainable. Describe the rules we will follow to keep improving our environmental performance.
- Explain the rules for ongoing environmental performance improvement.
- Obey any environmental protection laws that are in effect and any other pacts you willingly agreed to.
- Foster individual and collective employee engagement in environmental protection issues through on-the-job training.
- To assist the relevant administrative authorities and agencies.
- To conduct out initiatives for environmental conservation.
- To inform people of our environmental management initiatives and to provide reports on them.
- Ensure that a Chain of Custody is in place and maintained.
- Keep away from buying and selling wood that has been unlawfully removed.
- To prohibit the procurement and sale of wood and timber products that have been unlawfully harvested, implement and maintain a due diligence framework.
As a result, in order to ensure the sustainability of our world, we must commit to fulfilling our obligations as global citizens to Mother Nature in order to preserve it for future generations and prevent it from degrading. Our individual efforts might seem insignificant, but if thousands of young people work together to save nature, our efforts will eventually amount to a significant step in preventing the destruction of our motherland Earth.
