There are many natural resources that are available to us and in a lot of instances they are misused.
For the ecological balance we can plant trees which helps the problems of varbon gases. Plant a vegetable garden using lawn clippings, manure, vegetable scraps and old papers for compost. Also plant fruit trees using the same sort of things for compost plus these things will also hold the moisture in the ground for longer, thereby allowing for longer periods between watering.
Recycle water, including on a domestic level from washing water, showers/baths etc. Do not wash clothes unless the washing machine is full and then hand the clothes out on the line to dry rather than using the clothes dryer which used electricity.
Install rain water tanks for additional water which can be used for either garden, toilet or house use. Install solar panels for power, rather than relying on electricity for all power needs. Do not have electrical appliances turned on when not in use.
Walk or ride a pushbike instead of driving the car, where possible that is.
Recycle cans and bottles rather than throwing them into the tip/dump where they will take years to break down.
Use green eco bags for groceries etc, rather than getting plastic bags from the supermarket etc.

it is very difficult to use natural resources without destroying the environment
except the bio cycle in which we make food chain we don't get other examples in which people use something and it can be replenished
it is very difficult since in the case of industrialisation u can see that industries r taking everyting from environment for their manufacturing their products but in return what they r giving is only exhaust gases to this natural environment
although we r using refrigerators for cooling the natural and cooked food but we r destroying ozone layer
there r many more examples
but yes we can even use natural resources without destroying environment by the help of planting trees which give us fruits
this way we can use natural resources and we can in turn contritbute to the environment
