Taxonomy: Nonrenewable Resources Conservation

Programs that encourage the sustainable use and protection of fossil fuels (natural gas, coal and oil), minerals such as iron ore and gold ore, and other resources that are available in a limited supply that cannot be replaced at all or can only be replaced over extremely long periods of time. Conservation activities for nonrenewable resources focus on maintaining an adequate supply of these resources well into the future through efforts such as recycling which reduce waste and consumption. Included are waste management/recycling consultation services which help commercial entities analyze their industrial, business and office practices and institute changes to reduce the amount of waste they produce, implement recycling programs and/or identify other establishments that can make positive use of their remaining waste.
